Yes, Zhora is a very good kitty. He’s currently living in the enclosure where Zelenogorsk lived a year ago. And just like his dad, he comes up to the mesh, to people, rubs against the mesh, and is completely unafraid of humans.
And in the second photo he’s looking through the fence at Adelka and his kittens. Such a touching little cat. People often take him for a vicious, quarrelsome brute, but no. He’s a good, kind cat. It’s just that his face looks that way — truly manul-like :)
kone,
I don’t know, a lot. The first time I went to the zoo was specifically to see the manuls on January 2, 2024. Back then, Zosya and Violetta came out and put on a show. And on the avenue out came… well, not exactly came out, but appeared in the hatch, Zhora. And after that, every time I come to N-sk, I go to the zoo. Most often several times. And I go to N-sk often, several times a year.
This little shelter is lovely. Zelya stood on it in the same pose. And looked at Lastochka. Then, in the same enclosure, on the same little shelter, Lucky stood in exactly the same pose. And looked at Lastochka. And now Zhora, in exactly the same pose on the same little shelter, is looking at Adele and the minuls.
Pavel Burov,
My intro to Zelenogorsk (on line, alas - I'm in Los Angeles) was a video by someone who got up too close; probably using a phone. Zel Looked at him, walked up and started pointedly scent marking the mesh with his cheek - universal cat for "MY Territory". He was a favorite of mine ever since. Ruler of all he surveyed...
The main thing is: do not close the tab in which the video is being uploaded. Wait for the process to finish; this may take several minutes (several means not one and a half... two, but often five or more).

Pavel Burov, Just like his father! By the way, a question off-topic: about how many times have you visited the Novosibirsk Zoo over all this time?👀

Zhora is magnificent! Zhora is the best! 😍

yealurowluro, Yeah, Zelya often did that! He always knew who the boss was here 😎
I miss him so much 😔
yealurowluro, The same trick performed by Zhora:
George. Just as cute and businesslike as his dad 😎

what a sweet kitty 🤗🥰
He really is so much like his dad. 😭😭😭 I miss Zelenogorsk soooooo much.
Pavel Burov, he really did exactly that 😸 too bad the videos won’t upload to Manulization at all… 😞
kone, Could you please tell me: is the video simply not loading (sometimes it takes a long time to load :() or is it showing some kind of error?

Like, I tap it in the gallery, it loads, but in the end I get an empty slot — or is it just taking too long to load? 👀
kone, The video is taking a long time to load. You can track the progress in another tab in your “own” photo gallery, https://manulization.ru/manulover/kone
