…on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a fair green country under a swift sunrise.

Mee, MEE, I wanna hug him!! I always wish I could hug and kiss lions--that's one that at least SOMEONE gets to, without getting their face ripped off! Awwww how wonderful! *melts into puddle* Where's my cat?

Did you notice he was doing cheek rubs at her, the same way a house cat says "Mine!".
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.

Yep, he did! Oh, man! That would be heaven! Going to grab my small kitty now.
... and their joy was like swords, and they passed in thought out to regions where pain and delight flow together and tears are the very wine of blessedness.

When She and I went to the local first showing of LWW, we were both struck by one thing having to do with the Aslan CGI. Whoever designed the facial movements must have been a cat person. In the movie, when Aslan comes out of the pavilion for the first time, he looks at the Pensivies and gives them a 'double blink', which is cat talk for "I love you". He does it a couple of more times in the movie, at just the appropriate moments for that message.

I know zoos seem to need lion exhibits, but isn't it sad to see lions in cages? :sad: Perhaps in the more spacious wild animal parks the zoo officials would be afraid of them hunting the other animals and possibly be a danger to humans. But it still is kind of pathetic to see lions behind bars-- like sentencing a kingly animal to a prison term. I cringed when Aslan was bound up on the Stone Table.

"Well, you know how it feels if you begin hoping for something that you want desperately badly; you almost fight against the hope because it is too good to be true; you've been disappointed so often before. But it was no good trying to throttle this hope. It might - really, really, it just might be true. So many odd things had happened already." - from the magician's nephew
