It is not every day that you get a chance to see a majestic black panther let alone get to see one playing with a big dog.
Luna the black panther was rescued by a woman named Victoria after her mother abandoned her when she was only a week old. The mother lived at a zoo in Serbia, but the kitten was too young to survive there without her.
Victoria had experience in raising a big cat so she took Luna in and raised her. Victoria knew just what Luna needed to survive and nursed her back to health. Soon Luna was a healthy, playful big kitten eating meat and drinking lots of milk from her bottle.
As the kitten grew, she began transforming into a beautiful cat. Her eyes turned from blue to green, which means her childhood is almost over. But Luna is a wild animal and even though she was raised by a human, is a big rambunctious cat that is not easy to live with.
Luna has been trained since she was a kitten, which helps to make her more manageable. Because of this, Victoria introduced her to her parent’s rottweiler named Venza when she was very young.
From the first time they met, Venza was friendly to the baby panther. They took their time getting to know each other but before they knew it, became friends that loved to play together in the snow.
As Luna grew, the two of them started going on outings together and riding in the car. They take walks in the woods and love to wrestle and play. Soon Luna was 55 pounds and a more than worthy match for the big dog.
But the bigger Luna grows, the more boundaries Venza gives her. For now, the two are friends and companions that trust each other but their future friendship remains to be seen since Luna is a large wild cat.
We hope that they can remain special friends because they do share a very special bond and love and respect each other. It would be sad if Venza was no longer safe with Luna but so far, they have not had any problems, but Victoria keeps a close eye on them.
We hope you enjoyed this rare rescue story. As always, please feel free to share with your friends.
