I had been shopping with my mom and cousin all day and we went to ross and next to the Ross was a Petsmart and there was a lady standing outside the Petsmart holding a lion cub. I was immediately filled with joy and a little confusion because the lion cub wasn't aggressive at all. I mean considering it is a lion and that its a cub it would be more aggressive and more alert but he was just chilling in the womans arms. I ask her if i could take a picture with it and she hands the cub to my mom and i took my picture. My mom handed her the cub back but the woman put the cub back in our shopping cart usually where a baby would go. Then she immediately started running and mumbling random words we couldn't understand. The woman got in her car and left us with this lion cub. My cousin, mom, and I were so confused. We just decided to bring it to the Petsmart, i was thinking in my head that Petsmart doesn't take exotic animals. But we walked in anyways, we sat at this counter and this doctor was inspecting the animal and typing into her computer. I was holding the cub like it was a baby and it was the cutest thing in the entire world omfg. I shifted my position a little bit and it wrapped its paw around my shoulder. This cub could barely hold himself up, he was extremely sick. I guess the cub started talking and apparently he hadnt eatin in 3 days so thats why he was extremely ill. The doctor finished her test and by then the cub was gone, it died in my arms. I started crying and then my mom says, "shes crying" lol then the doctor states the cub was extremely ill and had other health problems in addition to his hunger. Anyways while i was crying i found a name for the cub and its Leo. I woke up crying because Leo died, fuck idk why this was so sad lmao
