Meet Timofey. Timofey is an absolute star and a symbol of the Moscow Zoo!† In his enclosure there is a tunnel, also known as a fattening gauge.

It seems Timosha likes both the process and the result. And we’re happy for Timosha.
Cats for everyone!

Pavel, thanks to you, Timosha has become even more filled with the absolute of his starry greatness.
And in the "Zazhirovka" state, does the tunnel become a bit too small?
Oh Timosha, you are so handsome and charismatic! 😍
helga ingvar, we’ll find out in winter 😹
As they say in summer: it’s not that Timokha is skinny, it’s that the tunnel is big. And how shall we put it in winter? Exactly: it’s not that Timofey is fat, it’s that the tunnel is small! 😹
Pavel, thank you for another dose of positivity! I love your posts!
