1. It is a real tear jerker, no question

Animals are wonderful people.

I've been blubbering since Tuesday night... I've given up mascara, and I'm buying stock in Kleenex!

Good to see you! Haven't seen you around in a while... I'm sure you've been busy:)

:hi:

4. no, this is based on the true

story of a conservationist (see Born Free) who helped reintroduce Christian into the wild. His most famous is Elsa.

5. As a cat lover, no surprise to me at all.

Thanks, Larisa. I'm tearing up, too.

6. thanks for that... sadly

George was murdered, as was his wife. Elsa appears to have been poisoned (she got a strange illness that felines do not get) and we don't know what happened to Christian after this. But he had some cubs with his two ladies (there is a second part). I can't stop crying!

7. I had forgotten that the Adamsons were murdered.

But remembered that Elsa was poisoned.
