This cat seemed to like me - came to the fence and got right up next to me for a pet. I WISH I could have. Seems this gal was hand raised. The zoo keepers get to pet her. I want to SO BAD! I'm gonna see if there is any way I can get to pet this cat.

Ok - they are raising money to build this kitty and the other one a new enclosure. They are getting matching funds. I want to pet the kitty. I am wondering how much of a donation and what kind of release I would have to sign to get to go in the cage with them.
We talked to one of the handlers there and she told us all about these cats. How they were hand raised. How she got to take this cat home to socialize it. How they don't have claws, but do bite - but not often. How the other keeper goes in there every morning and has his coffee with the cats. How they pur and snuggle and how SOFT they are. But also how they can be temperamental. Sometimes they WON'T let anyone in the cage. Sometimes they block the door and won't let people out! They have to toss in a frozen mouse to get them to move from the door! I WANT TO EXPERIENCE THAT!
Oh, you have to get in! And take pictures! And take me with you!
You'd have loved the serval kitties I got to play with in New Orleans.
