Took a tour at her work.  Unfortunately no jerk-athlete stories, she said he was nice.

Yeah I kind of assumed Chris Wilcox would be a nice guy.

Now Kris Joseph, I heard he just randomly slaps babies. Just out of the blue, 'SLAP'. Terrible guy.

Kris Joseph? I heard lazy (which he has apparently rectified) but not jerk.

She trains exotic cats.  She works in Myrtle Beach at an animal preserve for an organization called The Institute of Greatly Endangered and Rare Species (T.I.G.E.R.S.).  In addition to the work they do and money they raise for animals, they also pretty much run the business of animal training for the entertainment industry (Dr. Dolittle, Ace Ventura, etc. they were on Jay Leno, Good Morning America and tons of other stuff).  They also accidentally bred a few ligers (because all their animals live together from the time they're born) and happen to be the home of the worlds largest cat.

One of the ways they make money is running a tour of their preservation where you can see all their different animals including the liger, play with baby tigers, wolves, and other assorted cats in your lap, feel the ground shake as a grown tiger chases a lure at full speed 30 feet below you, have several different types of monkeys climb on you, watch them swim with tigers in a pool etc.

If anyone's near Carver, Mass they come up with their animals for the renaissance festival (King Richard's Fair).

Ha, I was kidding, I'm sure he's a great guy as well.

Sounds awesome!!  I've always wanted to work with animals, especially the ones described here.
