Cheetah!

[firstfallenpanda]

Cheetah Outreach brings their cheetahs here for treatment. There's a king cheetah downstairs and I got to see him up close! Later, when he's unconcious, I'm going to go fondle him. Mmmm, big kitty.

Acinonyx jubata rex? With the stripy spots?

I am exceptionally jealous.

Yes, stripey spots and long stripes on his back. I'll try to get a cellphone pic of me fondling it later :P. I don't think we get any otters here, though. Although, one of the vets has had to remove the eyes from an eel. It had ulcers or something, they're sitting in a jar on his desk. Ick.

"the weekend"? I thought only Frog was down for the wedding. We're up in August for 3 weeks, I'll probably meet you then.

No I was there for four day, flying visit. I can safely say you don't read behind my cuts!

Lucky sod... all I get to pet at my new job is artists... and frankly some of them smell!

I have also identified and ear marked my dream cat... when next I have a spare $4000 and a house with double locks to keep it in!

Have you ever seen a bengal... they are boooootiful... like a little wild cat for your living room!

In fact if I ever get married I think I would prefer one of those to a wedding ring... with an average life expectancy of 13 years and the state of marriage now days it should be about right!
