Over the last few days we have been very busy with clearing the new enclosures for the cats.

We have nearly finished, all but the door, for the new enclosure for Bells. One of our Servals.
It is about 100 times bigger than his current pen and he will be much happier in it.
Rocky outcrops and an undulated terrain will give him much more pleasure and a greater challenge than what he is used too now. O/\ O/\ O/\

Hopefully we can move him in there by the end of the week.

After that we are going to start on the enclosure for Pablo the Caracal.

This one is going to be a real beauty.
Octagonal and with a great rocky outcrop in it and even a waterfall.
It is going to be a pest hauling all the materials and equipment up there, but after it is finished it will be all worth it.

The rest of the cats are doing just fine.
Although they have been shaken a bit by the bad weather we have had over the last few weeks they seem to cope very well.
Better than their caretakers. O/ O/ O/

I have started on a series of photographs of them in different funny poses.

Not sure how I missed this thread - but I did until this evening...

Great to hear all the details - although yeah, can do without the freezer locker pictures too... are you SURE you couldn't feed them poachers???

Great work you're doing with all the improvements. Really hope MD & I can come visit! (we'll bring our own meat for the bracci - or however it's spelled) O**
