So I worked in the Live Animal Center yesterday.

When I went into Osiris' cage, he wanted to play.
This was demonstrated by his leaping at me, hugging my leg, and chirping happily - then running away a few steps and staring expectantly.

Now, to get the visual - Osiris is a caracal. Imagine basically a small female lion with lynx ears, 38lbs, all muscle, who reaches up to your waist when he's standing on his hind feet.

D'OH!!!

So we cuddled for a while - he curled up in my lap and played with my hair.
(I have GOT to get some pics of him....!!!)

At any rate...it was a good kitty moment. :)

where do you work?

I'm a relief keeper at the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia, where we have about 100 exotic critters that are used for education programs.

So I get to play with a red fox, a caracal, parrots, owls, hawks, alligators, snakes...you get the idea. :)
