The fluffiest day of the year

😻 Hooray! Today, April 23, is the fluffiest day of the year — International Pallas's cat Day!

Together with the Siberian matriarch Lastochka, we congratulate all manulovers, as well as zoologists, veterinarians, zookeepers, scientists, and volunteers — everyone who loves manuls, cares for them, and dedicates themselves to their conservation, study, and raises public awareness about them. Thank you! ❤️

This grumpy yet endlessly charming solitary cat remains a mystery to scientists. But despite its secretive and unsociable nature, the manul has managed to unite thousands of people around the world and give them the chance to feel like part of something great, bright, and deeply meaningful—and that is truly something special. Thank you, great manul! 🧡

Support scientists, zoos, or simply tell your friends about manuls and their uniqueness — today is the perfect day to do it! 🙌🏻

And come join us this evening for our special manul livestream — it’s going to be fun and exciting! 😉

Happy Pallas's cat Day, dear manuls and manulovers! 🥳

    Стефано Тозарелло, Ой, как замечательно! А можно ли где-нибудь почитать этот рассказ?

    Я в сети видела вот этот потрясающий сборник, в том числе про манула там тоже есть, очень проникновенно и хорошо написано:

    mnamosyna (rachael), Rachael, thank you so much for visiting us online! 🤗

    We were really hoping that YouTube would have an automatic translation feature, but unfortunately it doesn't work with Russian 🙁

    Thank you for being with us despite everything you didn't understand – it's incredibly touching and means so much to us! 💘

    It's a shame YouTube doesn't have a translation feature for the live stream, but it's such a joy that you were still with us despite the language you didn't understand! ❤️🙏

    This is incredibly precious, touching... And it means so much to us. Thank you!
