It's amusing that she's about as big as her adopted mother! I'm guessing that she gets most of her milk from a bottle, since I don't see how she could get enough from "Mum".

It's apparently not that uncommon to have big cats adopted as kittens by domestic cats, where their birth mother can't or won't look after them. It must appear quite ludicrous when they get older, and much bigger, although I'd guess at some point they have to isolate them from each other, for the domestic cats safety, since a big cat could accidentally badly injure a domestic cat, if mildly annoyed, or even totally accidentally.

I saw that but it didn't really make me go squee. What are they playing at cross-breeding those??

Panda cub squeee:

n.b. technically not "wild things", but that rule seems to be waived on this thread

(the oldest one proves the rule that once they get big, all giant pandas look like people in panda suits)

Sea Otters floating in the water are pretty cute anyway, but a mother with her pup cuddled up on her is even more so!

Photos like this aren't hard to find, presumably because of the high cuteness factor, but also because mother's will often put the pup there to keep it warm. Apparently when really young, and well groomed by their mothers, they can't sink, because there's so much air in the fur!

If you're feeling even slightly emotional, this will make you cry http://jezebel.com/5962060/your-morning-cry-blind-kitten-plays-with-his-first-toy

The other week I house-sat for a friend and looked after her seven alpacas, including baby Mabel.

Awwwh!
Don't suppose you've got any audio of them humming?

TimO · « **Reply #89 on:** 22 November, 2012, 10:40:36 pm »

Is the baby in any of those shots? They all look about the same size (excepting the Pushmi-pullyu in the final shot.

)

Baby Mabel is in first two shots

Third from the left in top photo
Head down in second pic.

She's grown a lot but her fleece is different from the adults.

Third photo is of the three young lads - 2 yearlings and a two-year-old.

TimO · « **Reply #91 on:** 23 November, 2012, 09:36:33 pm »

Ah I wondered about that, her fleece does look a little different in the photos.

I still think that there aren't enough legs for all of the heads in the final photograph.

My mum is involved in a dormouse census in Cardiff and has the privilege of being able to handle them when checking on their status. Most dormice hibernate in amongst tree roots, but this little fella decided to stay in its breeding box.

Ever wondered what a snoring dormouse sounds like...?
