Kevin Richardson - Black Leopard Manicure? | The Lion Whisperer 

It has been a while since we have seen the black leopards. In this video you will see some help from our trusted friend Dr Caldwell, claws can cause issues for the older animals. It is always reassuring to be able to address problems like this. It gives a chance to see the claws up close. You will notice I am checking the animals ongoing and more to follow on this story - who will it be next week ? Thanks for the incredible support for the Last Lion film and for all the support this year. Please leave your thoughts in the comments below, I try to read as many as possible.

Only Kev would called a Black Leopard…. Kitty 🤣

I love how you call them "kitties" like they are just big ole house cats!! Love seeing the leopards! Can't believe Cole is 21yrs old!!!! Wow still young at heart, goes to show how well you take care of them Kevin!! Along with the fab Dr. C!!!!

The amount of effort it takes to properly care for these animals, makes me appreciate your organization even more.

I have no words, walking careless around stunning wild animals, and also been loved by them.

It's always cool to see the black leopards Kevin. It's hard to believe Coal is 21 years old ... he looks so much younger!

Such beautiful creatures. So glad they have Kevin to care for them.

your dedication to look after these animals is priceless.In return they accepted you as one of their pride.

I just cant put into words how happy I am to see the black leopards. I appreciate all the animals and what Kevin and his team but the black leopards are just such showstoppers. Love from S.Africa

Reminds me of my black cat Lomu who passed away after a short ilness last week. Yes I named him after legendary All Black rugby player Jona Lomu. Lomu loved to lick/wash my ears while I was asleep. That's how he woke me up every morning at 6-ish O'Clock, the past 15 years: "I want Breakfast..Now!!"..I still wake up every morning at 6-ish O'Clock thinking Lomu is washing my ears..I miss him very much. He was one of my best friends..ever. RIP Lomu.❤❤❤

How truly blessed the animals are in your care

Love Dr. Caldwell's visits ... always learn something. Thanks Kevin!

Happy Easter Everyone!

I cannot believe that Cole and Nikita are what-21?? Wow! I have a black cat and I call him my micro mini black leopard.🐈‍⬛

Love when Dr. Caldwell comes out, and we, as well as Kevin, are learning things about the animals he comes to treat.❤

I am so glad you guys take such good care of your older animals. They need you all the most so they can enjoy their life instead of suffering. Your cats are so beautiful ❤❤

Beautiful animals. Thank you. 😊

Thank you Kev and crew, I love you all for all you do.

Awww, I just love Kohl and Nakita! I can hardly believe they are 21! They look fabulous! Thank you for sharing them with all of us! Looking forward to the next visit with Dr. Caldwell!💖

Within an hour CLUB!!!❤🎉 Love the Lion Whisperer and all the bonds he shares with these majestic creatures.

Finally, the animal everyone wanted to see.

Thank you for showing the Leopard brothers, and Yami and George ❤❤

Always excellent videos. I can’t say that enough about Kevin. Wow at those “fake” nails on Nikita & beautiful boy 🙄😆 I still can’t get over people saying and thinking that. These 2 are my FAVE black leopards (don’t tell Duke & Khan that 🤫). I remember Kevin saying one time that Nikita was one cat he could honestly say he fully trusted. That’s saying a lot coming from the expert zoologist himself. As always Kudos to Dr Caldwell for the amazing care and depth of knowledge in the veterinary world. ❤

Yami and I are the same in that regard, our faces show exactly what we're thinking and feeling.

The leopards look amazing

kitty loves pilchards

They are so beautiful...

Beautiful 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Such a healthy and beautiful cat....I wish I could pet him and feel that gorgeous fur.

The leopards get a manicure and Kev gets a bath!!!

I'm sure Coal will feel much better now. Ingrown nails are so painful. Kevin, I live in the UK 🇬🇧 and some years ago I had a hell of a shock one evening just before dusk, I was driving to a place to take my Gsd for a walk and I saw what I thought was a dog walking up the road, but I couldn't see anyone with it. So I slowed down, and it walked across the road in front of me, and no kidding it was a big black cat possibly a Black Leopard, and looking at the height of your cats it was taller and the shoulders were more pronounced. The hair on the back of my neck stood up, cause I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I drove home in disbelief, and the next day I couldn't wait to tell the girls at the stables where I kept my horse what I had seen, and they said lots of people have the cat/cats, and sometime later a man with his wife was driving home in the same area as i had previously seen the cat, and he said 1 ran across the road in front of him, and he and his wife were shocked at what they'd seen. So I didn't think much more about it, but a few years on driving down a quiet road in a different area I saw another one not as big as the first one, but black again and jumped through a hedge and I said to myself that's a big cat, and then it clicked what it was. Also some kids were playing near a golf course and came home and told their parents they they had been attacked by a big black cat, and 1 of the boys jacket was torn. The parents didn't believe them, but 1 of the kids was a local vicars son, and he knew his son wouldn't lie about it. So he went to the area it happened, found a paw print and took a plaster cast of it and sent it to Bristol zoo. The results came back Puma, but Pumas are not black normally, unless as I was thinking, they could be breeding with the black Leopards, which is possible. We have a lot of sightings of big cats here in the UK every year. What are your thoughts on it Kevin?

Amazing Cats ❤

Black Leppards are beautiful

More leopards and hyenas plese

The comedy…..in seeing how the leopards try give admiration back to Kev no matter what.

What a stunning Black kitty 😆❤️ We had a Big black cat, called Raven. I always called him a Panther kitty 😁 🖤 He was so beautiful. Sadly he is no longer here 😢

Beautiful Big Cats 🐈😻🐈‍⬛️❤️♥️😍!! ❤😊❤😊

Beautiful animals 💕

wow~~ ""so beautiful and amazing 👍👍👍❤❤❤ thank you for sharing a wonderful video 🤗

Beautiful beautiful cats ❤

Wow! That was awesome video; I enjoyed watching from Canada hajur🙏

So Cole is left pawed? He uses his left paw more? He's not as heavy as the lion brothers? He is amazing.

Such a beautiful creature, his coat is gorgeous 😍

' _paw_ dicure' , surely

Beautiful cats ❤

🖤🐾

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Yay Spa days

Que animal lindo.

Great vid. The sound quality however could be much more spacious.

❤

The black leopards are so beautiful! I'd love to see them a bit more often. We haven't heard about the cheetahs for a long time. Could you give us an update on them?

Absolutely amazing that you are being groomed by Nikita while checking on her paws. She just decides, if you’re gonna help with my grooming I’m gonna help with yours.

There licking with the rough tongue hurts

An impressive set of murder mittens.

Legadema...))

I never understand why they don’t use a file/grinding tool to smoothy shave them down instead of crunching them off with that plier tool that leaves them jagged…

Hello Kevin, thank you for your wonderful videos! I love your Lion, Leopard, Hyena and for a time Cheetah family! I have been wondering…..do all of the animals have a water source in each of their enclosures? Something i have Just been curious about.

Waow macan tutul hitam yang seram, tapi kenapa anda berani saudaraku, bahkan terlihat macam hitam sudah bersahabat dengan anda, videonya sangat menarik untuk disimak, sangat menghibur saudaraku

Would adding a rough textured (cement?) column to their enclosure, and spraying it with an attractant, help keep their nails filed down?

😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍

I’m amazed at how Coal fell asleep like the king he is… Even in his sleep, he’s proper …

What does their fur feel like?

Better looking nails than a lot of humans! No yellow fungus! 💞🐾🐾💞🦁

So Yame would be an epic failure at poker lol. His tells are so obvious

Happy Easter to South Africa from Germany, how is the weather there; here it is still raining immediately maybe yet, by the way the cats can climb trees and do so, are needing no „nail scissors“❔🗣🤔 never heard that word? Thank you for the English lesson, teaching, possibility, lovely leopard❔🗣🤔🛰💻🪺🌱🤫🫥⌚ time after time 📱📱Song? : billy idol: hey little sister, what have you done 😉 the other sides 😶‍🌫 yes-no; two say yes, and the rest🚘📱🌐📱🛰💻🌱🌍🌎📻 what is your problem in the middle east; „Michigan“🫥😵‍💫🙆🏻👣🗣🤔🤪🤓… many to talk about more , next time, many guests today 🌑🗣 the other stars please📱 🤔🌐🗣🫣🤗

To anyone who can go up to a leopard and casually extend their claws, and then walk away unscathed, I'll give you $5.

Do you notice if male black leopards are more aggressive if not neutered?

Hi, Kevin... am I wrong to refer to Black Leopards as Panthers...? Are Panthers a totally separate breed of cat?

🤝🏿🇺🇸💪🏾✊🏾

Always love when Dr Caldwell comes. He takes such good care of the animals. Kevin you're on top of what all the animals need.

I love all the animals that call your sanctuary home, but I think the black leopards have a particularly special place in my heart because their expressions, reactions, and behaviors are so astonishingly similar to house cats - more than any other big cats, except possibly the American cougar.

Can't believe how gentle those cats are with you and their age blows my mind! So beautiful! Thanks so much for the wonderful vid - made my Friday!

Seeing Coal and Nikita again is a welcome mood lift for me. Beautiful, adorable cats - thank you for providing such a good home for them.

So satisfying to hear the sound of the crunch when their nails are trimmed. I'm sure they feel better after their manicures. Now if I can only get my cats to Dr. Caldwell to get their manicures done too😁

6:14 "Can I stick a camera on your gun?" "Yeah" "Thanks" What a casual conversation 🤣

appreciate the great audio quality....leopard's tongue sounds like sand paper!

As much as I LOVE Bobcat as my favourite lion, to me, NOTHING is more amazing than these beautiful black leopards. The fact that Nikita allows Kevin to inject her, knowing how strong & independent they are, has always remained in my mind as an incredible bond & level of trust that surpasses logic - Beautiful creatures !!!

Just amazingly beautiful. Finding so much peace in what you share with us. Thank you Kevin. There are not enough words to express the joy ❤ God bless you

I love how the cats let you mess with their toes. They have so much love and trust in you. Such wonderful relationships you have with them. 😊😊😊

These leopards are so beautiful and well cared for. It's such a treat to see them. ❤

gosh Nikita is so incredibly beautiful 😍 stunning

Love seeing the black leopards! They are so beautiful 😍 Nice manicure doc! 💅🏼

Kevin, can’t believe the amount of dedication and love you have for these animals! You have worked tirelessly to ensure they are well taken care of for so long! It would be nice sometime for you to show the new subscribers how much you do on a daily basis…the filming etc. So impressive! Thank you! ❤

It's too adorable when lions make their "tight face" and wrinkled nose😃

Thanks

감사합니다.

It's great having Dr Caldwell, the work he does is fantastic Kevin.

Always great to see Doc Caldwell cause takes excellent care of the animals. Relief for Cole, nice. 👑🦁

Wouldn't it be a Pawdicure? 😂

I'm like Yame, its impossible for me to hide how I'm feeling. Even if I'm silent, my facial expression will tell you everything you need to know. Great video Its was awesome to see Nikita and Coal🖤

21! omg, this cat looks amazing! He doesn't move like he is that old either.

Those are some serious 'murder mittens'🐾

Love seeing the black leopards ❤❤ such beautiful cats ❤❤

Kevin you’re a magnificent man… so much respect to you & your team for offering all the love & care to the animals… LOVE you & your animals ❤❤

I do my front claws myself, but need help with my hind ones.

Kevin “Saltlick” Richardson 😂

The amazing Dr Caldwell. Cole will feel so much better.
