That's good to hear. To be honest, I do have the ability to calm down both people and animals. There was a time when I used to work as a customs officer that they were transporting a lynx to the US from another country but made a stop in our country to change vessels. Somehow the little bugger got loose (which is pretty bad) and to make matters worse it was cruise ship day so lots of tourist (a recipe for disaster). While I'm coming off lunch, they found the Lynx and was trying to catch it. All I remember was me leaning against the wall and something scampered right behind my foot and hugging onto it. I wasn't even surprised it was him - I had to tell the others to get the people out off the way and I had to talk to it calmly. He trusted me enough to let go of my pants (his claws were pretty sharp mind you) and I slowly started walking in the direction of his cage. The poor thing hide behind me the entire time until he got to his cage and he got right back in there. Not going to lie, that was one of my more memorable moments as a customs officer.
