Meet the beautiful Sychik the Pallas's cat. He lives in Greens Zoological Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre.

He's one year old, born on April 17, 2024 in Novosibirsk Zoo to the family of Zelenogorsk the Pallas's cat and Eve the Pallas's cat. Read more about the travels of Sychik.

This manul was named by manulover Irina, inspired by his charming appearance.

He has large, wide-open, bright yellow eyes with a perpetually surprised look. When he sits, puffed up like a fluffy little mound, he looks strikingly like a Eurasian pygmy owl — one of the smallest owls in the world.

„Sychik“ means „pygmy owl“ in Russian.
