Mother and cubs

This picture was in the newspaper today:

Craig Busch with Rewa and her three cubs (the ones I got a glimpse of two weeks ago) at the Zion Wildlife Gardens. How could I resist? They weigh 5.5 kgs each, so they're about the size of our Vic, and bigger than Claudia and Tessa.

Awww:). I want them all as well. Besides, if they only weigh half of what Noki does, it'd be easy to carry them over;)...

Ah, but they won't for long. You saw my pics of the orange cubs at 11 months. They'd wreck your apartment; the first little white ones chewed the hell out of Craig's clothes and furniture in his house. :-P

Sounds just like my cat, then...

You wouldn't get a lot of room on your bed either. :-P

Off to work now...

Seems I have the training for a tiger wrangler already, then:P...

Have a not-too-stressful day!

Too late! ;-)

Pity it's such an exclusive profession. If you lived here though, you could probably get a job there starting as volunteer. Our guide was one.

Damn. Will have to move there, then. I'd certainly work for free if it was with white tigers. At least I have experience of monstrous cats who can claw holes in concrete walls...:P

Am not joking. Will photograph the holes if I can be arsed.
