Shaquille

 

Tears dropped down onto his lifeless form from the eyes of those who had gathered around Shaq to ease him over to the other side. His black spotted fur, dappled by the afternoon sun, glistened but no longer gave rise and fall to his sedated breathing. His 17 year prison sentence ended today.

   

We were remembering the proud, fearless leopard and how he had touched all of our lives with his strength to overcome the awful lot he had been dealt. Shaq had been born in a cage. He was bred to be used in a nightclub act by a trainer who made his living from the suffering of many big cats. As long as people would pay to see big cats doing stupid pet tricks he could count on a good living by providing the disposable product of the trade; young, compliant felines.

   

Cubs live with their mothers for the first few years, so breeders pull the cubs before their eyes open and bottle raise them to be completely dependent and subservient to their human master. By the time the cats are a year old, they are nearly full sized; appearing to be adults, but still mentally kittens. The crowd is wowed by the mastery of the trainer over what they think to be a full-grown and fully intact lion, tiger or leopard. Usually they are declawed, defanged cubs who have been beaten into submission repeatedly behind the scenes.

   

A well known tiger tamer boasted to me that the way you teach a big cat “who is boss” is to chain them to a wall and beat them with a whip, standing just out of reach. After a while the cat learns that no matter how hard he tries, he cannot retaliate and after a while gives up hope. His spirit dies and he is considered tamed or trained. The training goes on behind locked doors because the public would never support these wild animal acts if they knew the truth.

   

The trainers all claim that they only use “positive reinforcement” and when in front of the public they do, but the cats are ever reminded of the brutal force that will be used against them if they fail to comply. Sometimes it is in the carrying of a whip, which the trainer will defend as only being a guide, and sometimes it is in the verbal threats using words that only the cats in the ring can hear. It can be as subtle as a look (remember how your mom could do that?) or a gesture that the cat associates with pain.

   

At Big Cat Rescue we use positive reinforcement or operant conditioning as it is often called as a way to keep the cats’ minds stimulated and to assist us in their care and it works… when the cat wants it to work. This sort of training involves rewarding the cat with a little cube of meat for doing something we need them to do, like come into their feeding area, or show us a paw, or lay down next to the wall of the cage so we can give them their vaccinations or treat minor injuries. We do it because taking care of 100+ cats goes a lot easier if you have to get flea treatments on them and they come when called. It isn’t feasible to chase down a tiger just to put a few drops of Advantage on him. The cats at Big Cat Rescue do it because it is something fun to do and they are bored out of their minds. The agonizing boredom of captivity is the hardest issue for anyone to address when caring for animals who cannot be set free. We never withhold food from their main meals, so the treats are merely the cat’s way of measuring if they got our request right.

   

It’s helpful, but it isn’t reliable. The cats only respond to this kind of training on their own terms and for those who are being paid to perform for the public there isn’t the option of just turning to the crowd and saying, “Sorry, the cat doesn’t want to jump through the hoop today.”

   

In Shaquille’s case, people paid to see him jump through the burning hoop in the nightclub show and he was going to jump or die, and he knew it. He knew what would happen if he didn’t and one day, upon reaching adulthood, he proudly decided he wasn’t going to do it any more. It was in the early days of the sanctuary when we would rescue a cat but not require the owner give up their rights to own again. Our policies evolved as we witnessed time and again that breeders, trainers, photo booth operators and exotic pet owners would dump the cats as they grew up in favor of new babies.

   

The first time I saw Shaquille and the cougar who came with him, I thought that some horrible accident must have happened en route to us. Calling the former owner we learned that the injuries they suffered from had been the result of the beating they had taken at his hand for not performing. He had no remorse and had broken no laws because there are virtually none that protect the big cats. When we complained to USDA we were told that beating big cats to make them perform was considered “standard training methods.”

   

The cougar had a fungal infection in her brain because it had been exposed from the crashing blows to her head and wasn’t long for this world after that. Shaq’s face was the consistency of ground hamburger and his eye sockets had been crushed so that even years later, when he had fully recovered, his eyes teared constantly. His involuntary trail of tears were a solemn reminder of the abuse he had endured. His story was told to thousands who visited him at the sanctuary, once he was comfortable around people, and to millions who visited his page on the Internet.

   

Shaquille’s indomitable spirit has been an inspiration to so many. He purr-sonified strength in adversity and the ability to forgive. As a result many people around the globe made a connection with him that bridged the gap perceived as “us” and “them.” All of those thoughts were passing through our minds as he breathed his last in our arms.

   

The silence of the moment was shattered by an unearthly howling across the refuge. Hallelujah, a cougar and, the first big cat to come to the sanctuary, made the same proclamation as has become his habit when cats cross over. To my ears it was both chilling and comforting. Hal’s timing and the fact that he never otherwise makes such a call let us know that we really are all connected. We feel each other and that connection transcends our physical bodies.

   

It is sad for us to lose the physical connection with another that we best understand, but Hallelujah reminded us that Shaquille and all thosewho have gone on before him are ever in our midst.

   

Leopards are designed to run 40 mph and leap 20 feet. They are strong swimmers and climbers and in my opinion are the smartest of all cat species. No cage is sufficient for their needs. Shaq was born in a cage, lived 17 years in a cage, and died in a cage…but now he is free. His work is done. He brought to light the dark side of the entertainment industry and he put the torch in your hands to continue exposing animal abuse until it ends. You are his voice.

       

Tributes from those who loved Shaquille

My first introduction to Big Cat Rescue was a Saturday Tour with some friends. Our tour guide was Denny and because of his inspirational tour, I began volunteering at Big Cat Rescue. One of the few stories that I remember from that day was Shaquille's. I was quite naive when it came to how people mistreated animals and Shaq's story brought tears to my eyes and was really the reason I wanted to volunteer at Big Cat Rescue. I've been there going on 5 remarkable years and I owe it all to Shaq! I will miss him on the tour path because I know he inspired many, many, people besides me…..Pat, Volunteer Senior Partner

   

When I first became a yellow shirt, we were allowed to clean leopards, and I remember my first day by myself in the section called “Snow Leopards.” I had managed to dodge Sundari's frisky ways, Nyla's attempts to rip my face off because she had a raccoon and she didn't want me to take it, and Simba's watchful eye. I thought, “Geez I don't really like this section at all.....until I came to Shaq.” I was petrified...I had watched Shaq lunge at the side of his enclosure at Scott, so I knew he meant business. But, what I found when I approached his enclosure was a very calm, sweet, enduring Black Leopard, who took one look at me and plopped down, rolled over and showed me his belly as if to say "See Regina, leopards aren't so bad. We can be quite silly when we want to be." From that point, whenever I cleaned his cat-a-tat, he would follow me around the enclosure, stopping when I did and never missed a chance to show me his belly.

 

I took that as his way of giving back to us....since certain special people eased him into the world of human kindness, he would ease me into the leopard world.

 

Now it is our turn to shed the tears sweet boy......you have shed far too many. Have a peaceful journey Shaquille...run free now, climb trees, act silly. There is a beautiful tigress that will make your journey easier....her name is NINI…..look for her. You can't miss her, she'll be sticking her tongue out at you….Regina, Volunteer Senior Keeper

   

Oh Shaq! You had us all cry and cry so much for you during all these years by just looking at your eyes and knowing how much you suffered before you came to us. And today I hope you are not crying anymore. I hope you are enjoying your freedom and peace. As for the rest of us, today we are still remembering your tears and your pain. But don't worry Shaq, we will all continue our mission! No more Big Cats should suffer the way you did! Again, I feel so fortunate to have spent so much time talking to you and cleaning "your room!" I told you that day "I love you" - for the millionth time! You just looked at me, but this time was the last time! We all loved you Shaq, we all love you! Go and dry your tears now...let us do the rest and get some rest…Marie, Volunteer Senior Keeper

   

I first encountered Shaquille on 28th December 2001. It was the dead of night and my first ever visit to Big Cat Rescue, The Wild Eyes at Night Tour with Jennifer as our guide. Of course, he saw us well before we saw him and he came forward to the sound of Jen's voice. She told us his sad story, how he had been abused because he refused to jump through a hoop of fire and how it had left him scarred both physically and mentally. We saw him from a distance in daylight the following day - he was shy and unsure and it was obvious that he really didn’t like men.

 

The following year I returned to BCR and immediately I could see a huge change in this magnificent creature. There he lay, on his rock, proud and splendid in his black glossy coat. Suddenly, something caught his eye, he jumped from the rock and began chasing round after a play ball in his cage, acting like a little cub again.

 

Year after year, as I returned to BCR, I saw his confidence improve and I would spend quiet periods with him, just talking softly. It was a great privilege to be able to spend quality time with him. He has been a focus point for every school/event presentation I have ever made about BCR and his story will continue to be told.

 

Run free Shaquille, you will always have a piece of my heart with you.....Daphne, Volunteer Keeper Trainee/Advocat

   

Shaquille was such an important and poignant part of my tours, carrying the vital message that we have the power to stop this abuse by not spending our money to see such acts. On one of my tours a few weeks before, one of the little girls asked who I thought had the saddest story, and I answered unhesitatingly, Shaq, since he was not only a victim of greed, ignorance or neglect, but had endured such cruelty; yet to me he meant so much more, the will to survive, the power to forgive. I always took such joy in watching him basking in the sun, knowing he was now safe and loved; the rescue seems a bit colder with his passing..........Deborah, Volunteer Keeper Trainee

   

Fragile Circle

 

dedicated to Shaquille by Deborah

 

We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own

 

live within a fragile circle, easily and often breached.

 

Unable to accept its awful gaps, we still would live no other way.

 

We cherish memory as the only certain immortality,

 

never fully understanding the

necessary plan. - Irving Townsend

   

On a day in early April 2007, my sister and I took a day tour of the cats at Big Cat Rescue. As we stopped a distance away from Shaquille's place, I listened very closely as the guide told us Shaq's horrible background of torture while at a Las Vegas circus. As I listened to the terrible abuse this beautiful cat had suffered at the hands of man (and I say that word lightly), I could not get him out of my mind.

 

And though the laws were such that I could never get close enough to whisper "I love you Shaquille," I vowed to 'adopt' him and help the big cats as much as I could. At night, I would sent many positive messages to Shaquille and hoped that somehow is eyes could be fixed to stop the tears. I knew that all of the great people at Big Cat Rescue had done as much as they could, but his eyes always

haunted me.

 

Shaq's spirit and absolute diginity in the face of all he had endured, gave me renewed hope and faith in continuing on in life no matter how gloomy one's circumstances seem at times. Our animal friends are great teachers, and they participate easily in the flow of life and surely accept death with greater courage than most of us humans.

 

I feel very blessed to have taken that tour and seen Shaq for at least a few moments. I envy those volunteers who were able to reach out to him and be near him on a daily basis. How rich and blessed their lives have been by this lovely leopard. I am sure Shaquille is watching over all of his caretakers, and the other cats from above. He is whole and free of pain now and will be forever at Peace.... Sandra Hricik

   

I just read the May advocat and my heart broke when I read about Shaquille. In 2005 for my birthday my husband, dad, step-mom, cousin and I went to Big Cat Rescue. It was our first time there and I had wanted to go for some time. It was the most amazing experience getting to see all the beautiful cats that you have rescued. As we approached Shaq's cage the volunteer guiding our tour told us Shaq's story. I started crying when I heard about all the horrible things he had gone through. I stayed behind from the group for a moment just to gaze at this wonderful creature and hoping he knew he was loved, even by someone who could never enter his cage. I felt like I made a connection with him. The following year I told my husband that all I wanted for my birthday was to "adopt" Shaq. His picture remains in a frame at my house.

 

I am always sad when I hear about the passing of any of the cats at the rescue, but Shaquille hurts my heart the most. I know he is in a better place and can now run free. I am so grateful for having the chance to have Shaq touch my life and to be able to tell others about this brave, strong, beautiful cat. I just wish I could have been able to get close enough to him and tell him "I love you". I want to say thank you to everyone at the rescue for all your hard work and dedication to these cats, you are amazing people.... Tara Barrs

This week Team Shivangi Reviews went to Zingo Star, the newly opened café in GK – 2. Now who doesn’t want to have a sumptuous meal in a cozy place with good music? I fell in love with the ambience instantly and liked the relaxed feel of the place. The manager Tushar told me about the founders Sohrab Sitaram and Raghav Kapoor from Delhi who took interest in food and thus began this journey.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

The menu was an interesting one. I ordered the Zingo Fish Bowl, which was a mocktail served in an actual FISH BOWL. How cool is that!. There were other mocktails too like Red Berries iced tea, Summer Twang mocktail, & Zingo Virgin Sangria but the drinks I guess belong more to the style over substance category.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

For the starters, we had The Super Snacker Veg & Non-Veg Sampler. The Veg sampler had Fried Shrooms (Mushrooms), Onion rings and Mighty Mozzarella Sticks. The ubiquitous Mozzarella sticks melted in the mouth and were actually pretty damn good. The Non-veg sampler had Fish Fingers & Chicken Popcorns, items present in most café menus, were quite good to taste.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

The mains began with 3 mini burgers- Uzi Sliders, BBQ & Green Chilli. All of them tasted different to one another, always a pleasant start but the BBQ slider was in another league. I like smoky meats and this was well smoked and the taste mixed with the sauces was A+.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

The café is gaining popularity for their amazing wings because of the number of sauces they offer it in. We had the spicy garlic and a few other flavours and honestly they are worth the trip alone. Crispy on the outside and really spicy they were a delight. There are fun and games to be had to here as well. You can taste the hottest sauce they have and get a picture clicked, which will go up on their walls very soon. Challenge or be challenged, this will be a crowd pleaser.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

According to the restaurant owners, this is the first restaurant in Delhi to have Poutine on their menu. For the uninitiated, “Poutine is a dish originating in Canada, made with french fries, topped with a light brown gravy-like sauce and cheese curds“. I had the Cheesy Jalapeno Poutine and it was well prepared, very rich but fabulous.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

We also had the Peri Peri Pizza and Caesar salad, but I would not recommend it here as it is passable but just.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

There was an interesting dish the Red Dragon Paneer with pea rice which had some unique texture and flavours. I will not call it amazing but for the more adventurous foodies this can be an interesting choice.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

For the desserts, we ordered Zingostar Hot Chocolate Fudge served in a glass jar, Hot Chocolate Brownie and best of all, Kaps & Bonny. Ill begin with the best dessert, the Kaps and Bonny which was their unique recipe of butterscotch and vanilla sponge cake with vanilla ice cream. Seems a simple dessert but the combination of flavours worked very well and it was a very sinful end to my meal.

 

ZINGO STAR GK 2 M BLOCK DELHI

 

Zingo Star is the new fun eatery in town with expansion plans on the horizons. Come here for fun, frolic and great food.

 

XOXO

TEDxButtePublicLibrary, June 25, 2013, TEDxtalks, Young Guns of Butte, Lee Miller,

at a work-related catered event a few weeks ago, I took three huge

bags of rice prepared by one of the great montreal indian

restaurants, bombay mahal. recently I made stir fry with girl A,

which was delicious (secret: butter, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar,

and sugar). several nights later I served it to girl B, who is a chef

and said, I love how you put cumin seeds in your rice.

 

so THAT'S what those things are. I'm sure I would have told her that

I didn't make the rice if I were a better person. anyway I finally

finished off the rice and made some more, dumping a pile of cumin

seeds into it. way, way, way too many cumin seeds, now the whole

building smells like cumin. by the way I am in romantic equipoise

with both of these girls, and I have the feeling they are in romantic

equipoise with me. this is called romantic stalemate.

 

tonight I finished off the stir fry, served on the over-cuminized

rice, and it was my last meal for 24 hours. I enjoy fasting on yom

kippur, even if it falls on my birthday. and I enjoy a lot of other jewish

rituals, and I enjoy a lot of jews. I enjoy being jewish. but I do not

confuse any of this enjoyment with the laughably fictitious premises

that support the religion. why can't everyone be as smart as me? I mean

the oregon death with diginity act is going to be overturned, because

a very organized minority of people in my home country think that god

wouldn't approve of it. so organized is this minority that they got a president

elected and this president can care so little of the spirit of democracy

that he can appoint HIS PERSONAL LAWYER TO THE SUPREME COURT

and get away with it.

 

quote of the day: If god gave us life, god also gave us death.
