Lion Survives Ike, 5 Humans, Too
From KHOU in Houston:
As the storm raged, Reed—along with his friends, Larry and Crystal White—were praying the church would be just high enough to keep them from drowning in the massive storm surge.
If they could keep their heads above water, then all they would have to worry about were the hours of pounding rain and winds – and getting cozy with the king of the jungle.
“This guy had his cat in a cage in the back of his truck and he wouldn’t leave it,” said Reed.
As the storm got worse, the big cat’s owner opened the cage and brought his lion inside.
“It was no big deal; he is real good with big cats. Been raising them a long time,” said Reed.
