She's from a litter of 5 kitten which were abandoned underneath the Schonell at UQ. They were far too young to be separated from their mum so they had to be fostered for a few weeks while they were bottle fed. Because they were bottle fed they are all super friendly and love cuddles. Three out of the five kittens have now found homes (including Shallot), but there are still two left... so if you know anyone who needs a kitten :p. Shallot was the only black kitten in the litter, they others were all tabby. They all have giant ears which I think makes them look like bats, but probably means they have some oriental in them.
This is a cool show I found on YouTube. It's only up to episode 7 so far with 130 episodes to be broadcast in total. New episodes come out every Wednesday. I'm looking forward to the next installment.
Cutty has been bugging me for ages to begin my blog, but I have no idea what to write about. My life's not that exciting, I go to Uni, study, work, play wow, sleep, eat and that's about it. So seeing as I'm not very interesting, I figured I needed to find something that was. Enter the animals! Animals are awesome. I should know, I'm a Vet. So I've decided my blog will be dedicated to all the different wonderful creatures on our planet, by posting videos, photos and occasionally, animal facts.

Sloths have symbiotic cyanobacteria on their fur which provide them with camouflage in wet conditions. Additionally this bacteria provides nutrients to the sloths when they lick their fur, which is handy given the leaves which make up the bulk of their diet are nutrient poor.
Hehe it just gave up and fell asleep. read more
