A day with the cats

[Ian Porter]

On Sunday I took my daughter to the Wildlife Heritage Foundation for a photo day (a 21st birthday present from grandparents)

we spent the whole day with a keeper/photographer either inside the safety zone of the enclosures or actually in with the cats

it was a fantastic experience to be that close to the cats and topped off by being able to stroke a tiger

a few pics of the day (there's 100s more...)

Some of those big cats have a way of looking like you're a nice snack, don't they...

they do

some of them sent her diving for cover as they came racing towards the fence,

and when they can reach through the fence up to a meter you have to get out of the way fast

So lucky to be able to get so close to the cats to take those brilliant pictures
I am envious

Some of our cousins have that look down pat, too.

I dont think Fish really wants to eat you Lulu, it would take several sittings i reckon for her to finish you off
