Lions, Tigers, And Bears! Oh My!


It was a beautiful day so off we went to the Zoo. It is a small zoo but perfect for little kids. We arrived as a huge school group was leaving so it was pretty much empty for our leisure.
We met Simba (or maybe Mufasa) while we were there. He was as cool as a cucumber sitting there in his lair. Could have cared less that we were even there.
Baby boy and Mommy enjoyed looking at the monkeys while something caught Sister's attention behind us. Probably the birds.

Daddy and sister fed the baby goat. They tried to feed the giraffe but he wasn't hungry.

This monkey has a pet kitty. It is s a cute story. This old girl lost her mate after 40 years last year and since she is getting up there in age they were having a hard time finding her a new mate and she became very depressed. The zoo keepers got the idea of introducing her to this cat, T.K., who has a sweet and gentle personality and they took to each other. We never saw them more than a foot apart the entire time we were there.
We had a very fun time and saw lots of animals. The kids enjoyed themselves and Sister came home with a stuffed snake (she picked it out.)
