Montecore, the Roy Horn-mauling white tiger, will remain in his home at the Mirage Hotel, and will not be disciplined for his attack on his trainer. Details at Yahoo.
Horn's immediate response was to ask about the cat, to make sure the cat would be treated well.
as much as i disagree with people using and sometimes abusing animals for show or stage purposes, i really do get the sense that the tiger was more than just a 'show cat' to him. he trusted the cat as he would a friend. he knew the tiger didn't mean to hurt him.
