In early Spring 2019, Bigs Eyes and Laimos wandered into new territory around the Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve in Palo Alto, California from Shoreline, near Mountain View. They are a young couple hoping to find more of their kind in this new area and raise a family. I don’t know for sure, but I don’t think they expected to be alone.

2020/06/23

Sloth is one of the seven deadly sins; meaning laziness and failure to act on ones talents. So why did the animal sloth get this name? They may be slow, but they are not lazy. They are efficient in conserving energy and they certainly utilize their talent by being able to hang in a tree and hide from potential threats and pesky tourists!

So you want a pet cheetah? When you see a baby cheetah your heart melts. They have dark golden eyes that are curious with goofy spikey mohawk hair that is meant to mimic honey badgers in the wild. Not to mention, the hundreds of tiny little spots from the top of the head to the tip of their long tail. Their faces have that distinctive black tear line and when they look at you, you can see an intelligence, grace and thoughtfulness. When I ask my fellow feline lovers if they could have an exotic
