Animalia

I was taking my friend Pat to London Zoo today. I was running things a bit close when I saw three of my cats trying to squeeze on to one cat bed, and just had to pause to take a snap. Jaspa is auditioning for the offspring of Ceiling Cat and Basement Cat. Mitzi is ensuring her place by grooming Beano, who is in danger of sliding off the edge. This is his bed by default, and someone is always trying to share it with him, but this menage-a-trois is a first.


At the zoo, Pat spotted three new young meerkat babies trying to summon the courage to set foot in the outside world. They didn't quite manage it today, but I'm sure tomorrow they will venture forth.
