Baby Kitties!

[themadblonde]

Awww! I once had the extraordinary experience of bottle feeding a baby tiger @ a big cat "refuge" in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. I swear each of its paws weighed almost as much as my head.

Oh you lucky--did you hear their sweet little squeaks?

[zhai.livejournal.com]

Holy cow, that meowing is close to the cutest thing ever. And the spots!!

they were...

[themadblonde]

sweet, but hardly little. Or wait, do you mean the lion cubs? OK, just watched it again w/ audio- TOO cute. My tiger cub was older & didn't really sound that tiny.

speaking of babies, did you see the peregrine chick clip? http://www.reuters.com/news/video?videoId=80578&videoChannel=74 We've got a few nests downtown & Xcel has a camera on the nesting box in one of their towers, which is projected on a set in the lobby. I walk by twice a day to & from work. Mornings, there's always a parent sitting on the eggs, but on my evening pass by, I usually see just eggs. I'm sure it's fine, but I can't help worrying.

Wow, that would be a dream job for me. Love the tiny roars they make.

Awww. But my heart belongs to the putty tats.

AND...

the polar bear cubbies.

it was...

[themadblonde]

VERY difficult to put the baby down, I do remember that.

Re: AND...

[ellen-datlow.livejournal.com]

Well, yes.

That baby inhaled that bottle of milk!

I like the one that roared at the camera.

Even as kitlings you can see they are all lion, not our domestic cats.

Love, C.

I know. But you've just inspired to go and pet my own darlings to try to calm me down after my interactions with the most recent UPS minion...(see above post)

BRB..

Is it possible to find more cute in a genus that doesn't have kittens?

Babies of every sort are adorable, which is how human babies survive, I've been told.

But kittens now -- that's another level all together.

Bad UPS!

Love, C.

When I was a very junior copywriter as part of an ad shoot I once had to hold a lion cub about the size of those in my arms (it wore a diaper) for about half an hour.

Did it lick you?

[desperance.livejournal.com]

How come she gets to carry armfuls of lion cubs, and we don't?

There is something very wrong with this world.

I'll bet we all can if we volunteer!
