Here Kitty, Kitty

At first, we could hardly see him, lounging in the shade near the back of his enclosure. And then he decided to say hello to his admirers...

Thanks, Nina - isn't he just? And very nice of him to wander over in front of the observation window so people could get a good look at him, too!

I love tigers. They're so majestic. The tiger at our Auckland zoo had triplets. I saw them when they were a few months old. They were a real handful for Mum.

I haven't been to the zoo in ages! What great pictures you got.

Shelley: We had three tiger cubs born here about a decade ago, which they named after three of the local lakes: Monona, Mendota, and Wingra. We also had five lion cubs just a few years ago. Cutest little things ever!

Bethanne: Thank you! Even Alice was jealous of my little point-and-shoot camera Saturday. *WEG*

I'm telling you, the way he kept coming almost to the glass, then going back, he was a total flirt.

Heather said...

He totally was, LOL! Too bad I didn't get one of the x-rated pictures, huh? *weg*

Trix~Leave it to you to go to a zoo and find opportunity for x-rated pictures. LOL

Gorgeous tiger, though. ;-)

Heather said...

Hey, Alice was there too! She can attest to the fact that that gorgeous kitty cat was proudly showing off his wares. ;)
