Whoo hoo! Our very own Cincinnati Zoo, aka the Sexiest Zoo in America (so named because of its amazingly successful breeding program) is also home to Sarah, the fastest mammel on earth.
Sarah covered 100 meters in 6.16 seconds and 6.13 beating the former record by THREE WHOLE SECONDS!
Go here and here to read the background ofthese races & view the amazing runnung footage. The long You Tube version (second video on the first link) and on the zoo's site are the best
We also join the zoo in mourning Emi, the rare Sumatran Rhino who recently passed away. She & her "little ones" were always one of my bean's favorite animals to visit. Please read about this amazing girl here.
BTW, it is my beans 6th wedding anniversary!
IT'S ALL ABOUT ME
- Mr. Hendrix
- Purrs County on Kats Rule Rd., Ohio, United States
- Mommy was driving home from work on Nov. 3, 2004, when she saw a little black head on the side of the road. I saw the lady stop, get out of the car, and come over my way. I was curious, and comfy so I just lay there. She looked really worried & said she thought I’d been hurt and that she was going to go home to “get Greg” & I should just wait there. Being a cat I’m naturally inquisitive, so I decided to wait & see what she meant. When she came back she had a nice man with her & when he squatted down & called me, I ran right to his lap. Hey, it seemed like a nice place to be. Mommy scooped me up & took me home to take care of me. They said I was going to be their very own kitty & set about “fattening me up.” I’ve been pampered and spoiled ever since. I'm also named for a guitar god.

Happy Anniversary to your Humans. Lets celebrate with a ham!
It's nice to read about a good zoo. The zoo in our city has been getting a lot of attention lately for being not so good (it's not horrible, but people want a sick elephant out). Anyway, cheetahs are cool and Happy Anniversary!
It is always fun to see babies in the zoo. Happy Anniversary!
Happy anniversary to your mum and dad!

We saw Sarah on the news. She is a good looking cheetah cat!
Wow! You have a great zoo near you!!
Happy Anniversary to your beans!!
Happy Anniversary Amy and Greg!
We have the Minnesota Zoo, but mama likes the smaller one called Como Zoo, I think because she likes the flower conservatory next door to it.
If you know anyone who can help with our current blog problems, please let us know.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to your beans!!!
Happy anniversary to your mommy and daddy!
Neat story about Sarah!
We watched video of Sarah the other day. Whatever was she chasing?
Sorry about the rhino. Sounds like she was a big help to the zoo's breeding program.
! we read 'fatest mammal' at first! we were like 'whaaaaaaaaaat?! how is that sexy?"
They showed Sarah on our moving picture box the other day. That is one fast kittie!
I helped Sarah with her training...I think they used my FT!
Happy Gotcha Day to your humans!
Are woo gonna watch Joel so they get a night alone?

Sarah is awesome! We watched her on the internets... I reckon I could give her a run for her money though ;)
Happy anniversary to your beans! Be nice to them today... maybe give Bendrix the day off?
Happy Anniversary, Humans!
Wow, that's a very fast cat! I thought I was fast running down the hall!
Thanks for coming to our party! Hope you enjoyed playing with the rats! They had fun (though they're not sure they should play with Bendrix anymore after what he and PersePHONY did!)!
We think we're going to name the info-ferrets Frick and Frack.

Sarah is one speedy gal!
