"Pussycat, Pussycat, I love you..."

And we also love London Zoo’s new Pussycats, well, the two new Sumatran Tigers, anyway!

Say hello to Jae Jae...

"Yes, I do, you and your pussycat nose..." 










By the way, you can click on any of these pictures to view them in full size. it's worth it!

And this is Melati, having a kip. It is hoped they will one day breed.

Today I visited them at their new £3.6m enclosure, and they are truly amazing.




HRH The Duke of Edinburgh opened their new Tiger Territory home yesterday. Read more on the ZSL Website.

Some other wonderful pictures that I took, starting with the obligatory meerkat…


Then there are the Otters…


A very friendly Humboldt Penguin…

A wonderfully named Powderblue Surgeonfish…

A Kookaburra with very colourful plummage…

A hungry Aardvark eating an ant substitute...

An equally wonderfully named Copperband Butterfly Fish...

And Giraffes…














Please visit them all one day, they would love to see you! You can see further details at...
