Good evening my friends...I am mad at Mom and sad because we missed me being DDP yesterday...I was home yesterday waiting for Moms return watching out the bay window but no Mom till the afternoon, by then I was ready to take my long afternoon nap.

You see Mom was at the Zoo, she goes every month for a Sunrise Stroll except for July & August....she started going to these 7 years ago, she has to pay for this, but the neat thing is she goes into the zoo with an educator and about 30 other people @ 7:30 before the zoo opens, they walk around go behind the scenes to see all kinds of animals up close, she learns about them and so much more. She always comes home and tells us all about the lions, tigers & bears oh my and so many more.Mom says that is the best time to be in the zoo it is quite, you see all the animals just coming out, waking up...

Well yesterday just happened to be her April months day to go and she was so excited when she got home to tell us about the Amur Leopard.The Amur leopard is considered to be one of the most critically endangered big cats in the world, with just 35 remaining in the wild, all in the Russia’s Far East.

Those 3 cubs 2 boys and a girl ran around, chased each other, played in water....Mom got some great pictures of them and we want to share them with our friends....we know you all will go gaga over them...cause we are...just think those big kitties are just like us, we play with each other too...but I must admit I don't like to play in water. They roar, but don't purr...we purr and meow...Oh my I think they are pretty to look at, but I don't think I want to play with them...

Now that Mom had a good reason to not get on Catster yesterday I am still sad that I didn't get to be here and thank all of you before today.
Thank you HQ for choosing me yesterday even if I missed it, I am honored beyond belief...thank you friends for all of the gifts and comments...friends are what makes all of this so special so I thank you my friends....I love you all
