Hell no! My house cats attack me on a daily basis, no way would I let a giant cat into my house!

If Disney movies were realistic, like Princess Jasmine my best friend would be my pet tiger

They are not pets.

To say "not be wild and would love me" or whatever is to make a large cat not the same animal.

The thought of a domesticated lion or tiger or whatever is SAD, not "neat" or "cool! I want one!"

can't truly be domesticated

I wouldn't get one, because to keep one properly you need a huge amount of outdoor space, plus the budget to be able to feed one properly and the training and knowledge to know how to work with them.

On the whole, I'm opposed to the keeping of big cats as personal pets, but there are times when one simply can't be returned to the wild, for one reason or another (declawing, for example - and yes, that has happened). In these cases, I'd hope they either end up in a good zoo or with someone with the money, time, and resources to properly care for them.

Now, if we're talking in a more fantasy-type setting wherein the big cat would actually act more like a domestic animal and the care requirements were more easily met, then I'd get a tiger or a snow leopard. But obviously, only in fantasy-land.

big cats are awesome, but i'd be too scared to own one

I AM a Leo.

I don't like the idea of having very dangerous pets! I'm scared enough of everything as it is, I don't need scary stuff inside my home on purpose! lol

I wouldn't get one. No matter how awesome they are, I'd just volunteer or get a zoo career so I could be close to them.
