The Circus!
Have you ever been to the circus? It’s been a long time since I have been to a circus, but I enjoyed it, as I recall. Circuses have mostly gone away however, since cruelty to some of the animals has been discovered in some cases.
If you were to join the circus, what circus act would you choose as your job?
Would you like to be a clown? A trapeze artist? A lion trainer?
Have you ever thought about it?

I went to a lot of circuses when I was younger and was always fascinated with the big cats. Now I go to BlackJaguarWhiteTiger site on Instagram. They rescue circus animals and show lots of photos and videos that are astounding to me. The cats are so beautiful and the little cubs are adorable.

@IreneVincent I know nothing about Instagram but it's good you're able to get your 'big cat fix'.

I have never seen the circus in person. I never wanted to run away to the circus.

Circuses are not so popular anymore, but they are still coming to Richmond, Virginia every year. I used to go every summer when I was a child. But, I never thought about the animals being abused. That's sad.

I went to the circus when I was 4 I think. I love the lion tamer so much. I just love lions. There was also white tigers at this circus and they would do all kinds of tricks. Yeah, I would probably be an animal tamer for sure haha

It would be a dangerous job, an animal trainer. Do you ever go to BlackJaguarWhiteTiger site on Instagram. They rescue circus cats. It's a great site. I love going there and seeing all the cats.
