If I could have a huge saltwater tank, I’d want a pet ray. Remove the stinger and these guys are amazing – so soft, so graceful, and quite friendly too!

This guy was so eager to be petted he was coming out of the water!

They’re not just soft, they kind of feel… fluffy.

I quite like the cownose ones, probably because this one was super friendly.

Their little mouths are so cute! They look like a face themselves, but the eyes of course are actually on top. I believe those are the nostrils?

He seems scared of something! Maybe he only feels safe when against a wall… quite unusual for a fish.

A little baby monkey has some fun ruffling up leaves at the Singapore Zoo. Meanwhile, the adult one climbs up to a treehouse lookout.

It’s almost Mother’s Day, so here’s a baby turtle who loves his (or her?) mommy and wouldn’t stop following her around everywhere.

In D.C. on Sunday, Panda and I came across this adorable squirrel! She was hardly scared of people and after feeding her I decided to name her Sasha.

brown or red squirrel eating

We spotted her so close to the sidewalk, munching away at something yummy.

She ignored us for a long time as she scavenged, but then the crinkling of the bag caught her attention.

She stared right at us when we pulled out a gummy bear from the bag.

She hopped up on the ledge and began to sneak over.

She came right up to the edge to see this wonderful piece of food.

She took the gummy bear straight from my fingers and began nibbling at it furiously.

I offered her some more tempting candy as she finished gobbling up the first.

She was really eager for these! What a hungry squirrel.

She put her paws on me to grab the red one, which fell. When she didn't notice where it landed, she went for the yellow one instead.

Her paws were so soft and slightly scratchy where the nails were. I want a pet squirrel!

Now either the JetBlue terminal in JFK has taken on some pet birds or it has been taken over by them…
