Don't tease the cat. You'll just get scratched!

That looks like I'd imagine Bruce Lee vs Slow Fat Bloke From The Pub to be.

It did seem as though the gibbon was just playing, though.

Tigers, no sense of humour.

I wish I had a small tiger as a pet. Not a stripey cat. A small tiger.

I think they both were, but the game is a lot more risky for the gibbon...

I do love the bits where it's on the ground basically going neh-neh-neh-neh-nerr at the tigers though... and the bit where it pulls the tiger's tail, that reminded me of the Jungle Book when Baloo has caught Shere Khan by the tail and says "Let go? Are you kidding? There's teeth in the other end!"

Sig-worthy .

It would be quite fun for dealing with neds, yes.

The real problem would be that it would grow into a large tiger...

Ah - no, what I want is a small tiger. Not a baby or young tiger (well, ok, they'd be good too), but specifically a miniature tiger. About the size of an old English sheepdog, fer instance. Also with a less bitey nature.

That sounds like an excellent idea. Someone should get onto it. I'd probably settle for a Toyger:

Leopard? Or too spotty?

Cougar? Or too brown?

Also both are quite bitey I think.

I think what you're looking for is a sort of low-powered boutique tiger, a not-quite-rock'n'roll tiger that's more convenient to keep at home and is more polite than a real tiger, but really misses the point of what tigers are all about .

I'd want it to still be bitey enough for pub gigs!

Really, though, it's all about the stripes. Stripes are cool.

Don't fancy a pet Hyena or Baboon then ?
