This is AI slop

Just become a zookeeper and you get to take care a tiger cub. Problemo solved.

you have to be the right kind of zoowarden. my friend who works with the elephants never gets to bring any cool animals home. a friend lived next door to the big cat lady and she brought home a cub any time they had one.

...but what if I go "psspsspss" and the tiger comes up to me?

Then they are either very cool or you are very dead. Either way, worth it.

[–] nialv7@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago (4 children)

you can pet a tiger at least once

If dangerous, why fluffy and friend shaped?

[–] DickFiasco@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Proof that life isn't fair

Someone messed up and put "not" all over this picture, other than that though it's a good guide

[–] ignotum@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

I read this not as a challenge but as an actual plea, because you know you won't be able to stop yourself if one day the opportunity to pet a tiger appeared

[–] BC_viper@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

Ah. But you can catch it by the toe.

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

But consider: which of the tiger's appendages can you yank for amusement if you're a gibbon?

[–] Stolas@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Big kitty. Must pet anyway.

[–] TheStaffmaster@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

A well fed tiger is not that dangerous. If you keep it that way it might even let you give it snuggles!

[–] qwertyasdf@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I really want to pet a tiger though. Even if its the last thing I do

[–] hanrahan@slrpnk.net 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

weeelllllll, you can do the slightly drugged Tigers in places like Thailand, ketamine and fed I assume before you're allowed to pet them? because you're not petting one any other way ...at all.

As to the ethics of that, welllll, we destroy their habitat and have nearly made them go extinct and that seems perfectly acceptable, soooo. Just to be clear I have not done this personally.

[–] bilb@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 week ago

Its nasty to do that to a tiger, but if people want to feed me, get me high on ketamine and pet me I'm fine with it.

[–] restingOface@quokk.au 1 points 1 week ago

Rawr I'm a tiger come capture me, Thailand

[–] SlurpingPus@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Pet a cheetah instead, they're chill.

[–] snoons@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

You definitely can but it takes a long time and you have to say "chhfchhffchff" not "psspsspsspss" because that's not tiger language.

Essentially you have to be around when the liger is born.

[–] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 4 points 1 week ago

There's one place you can pet it still. You'll never guess where.

[–] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

You can't tell me what to do!

I still have seven of my fingers left from last time!

[–] Quokka@quokk.au 4 points 1 week ago

el tigre? Who took the boop?

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Only in Kenya.

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 week ago

The spot on his back just before his tail looks like fair game. My kitty also likes that spot, but mostly wants face pets.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 week ago

You're not my Dad.

[–] usualsuspect191@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 week ago

Anyone else now thinking of the scene in Red Dragon where the blind woman does a little sneaky "turn and cough" check on the sedated tiger?

They will call you a tiger toucher

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 points 1 week ago

Booo, I downvote this oppression!!
(Not really, just joking)

[–] OnyxRex@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

when was the last time the tiger ate and how full of a meal was it?
