My pilgrimage in Prague was a big success. I followed the advice to visit them early in the day and they both appeared. I was a bit worried because the day prior there was a post on Reddit (r/PallasCats) speculating that the manuls might not be in the enclosure because the user couldn't spot them.
Stretched.
No manuls in Los Angeles to photograph so may as well post the pendant I made from a keychain I got someplace off the net. I also have two manul pillows one of which it's restng on. The other has gotten rather flat over the years as I use it to sleep on. (Very comfy) These came from some company on Amazon.
Prrrrrrrrrrrp!
I tried the adorable limited-time Manul sweets created to celebrate the birth of the Pallas’s cat babies at Kobe Animal Kingdom! 🐾🎉
If you visit Kobe Animal Kingdom, be sure to give them a try! 😋✨
I don’t know whether this book has been posted here. It’s called “Why Is the Pallas's Cat Angry?” (if that translates awkwardly, I’ll rephrase it as: “Why Is the Pallas's Cat So Angry?”)
It’s a children’s poem, written by Elena Feldman, illustrated by Anna Kovalkina. The illustrations are absolutely stunning and vivid, and the text is funny. It’s very easy to buy, at least in Russia, on any marketplace.
The main character — a little boy named Petya — wonders before bed why the Pallas's cat is always so angry. Since these are poems, I also don’t know how they’ll translate into other languages, but I’ll reproduce the text from the book as captions.
I have also started an oil pastel portrait of Grusha, which I cannot work on until later next week 😓
Today was pretty quiet, so I drew Lev.
Hello Everyone!
My name is Diorse! I made an account because I love Manuls. I have created some Manulchiki fanart :) I hope to post more soon.
Please give me any requests you have for what Manuls you'd like to see next, or what situations you want to see Manuls in!
I want to visit Manuls soon, but in England some of them are quite far away from where I live. I was able to go to Japan last November and see the Manulchikis at the Ueno Zoo :)
a few days ago I found this video on tiktok of a manul meowing, from what I know manuls can't exactly meow like house cats while this one can? I've tried looking through an almost similar ones to see if it was them but I couldn't find nothing, that manul was marik
the video was in 2022 of October that's important

edit: it's a wild manul so its a no name
I finally received my Manul acrylic stand after waiting for the international shipment!!!
The moment I got home and saw the package waiting for me, I got so excited that I rushed inside and practically tore the box open!
And at long last… I finally have Manul Cat merch. 🥹
I’m sure one of them is Nagomu, but I’m a little unsure about the other one. Is the other cat Lev?
Hello fellow Manulovers, how possible do you think it is that manuls could be introduced to an Australian zoo. This post in not a request but simply what opinions do people have on manuls living in captivity on Australian soil??
There are many places in Australia that wouldn’t be too hot for a manul, and even then advanced cooling systems exist. Also, I’m pretty sure transcaspian/persian manuls do inhabit some warmer places in Iran. The steppes do get considerably warm in summer as well.
Australia is one of the two habitable continents that does not house captive manuls, the other being Africa.
I’d love to know others opinions on Australian manuls!!
I thought I'd share this with my fellow manulovers. The artist still allows me minor revisions so if you spot something that could be improved, let me know so I can discuss it with the artist.
As we, of course, remember, today is International Cat Whiskers Awareness Day (International Cat Whiskers Awareness Day)† On this day, manul lovers all over the world rejoice at photos of their beloved fluffballs with cheekily bristling whiskers and eyelashes.
Today, on International Cat Whiskers Awareness Day, August 5, 2026, IMWCA‡ announces the standardization of the international benchmark and unit of measurement for manul whiskeriness. Timofendiy (abbrev. Tmf). 1 Tmf corresponds to the cheekiness and sweep of whiskers characteristic of the manul Timofey, the universally recognized whisker champion.
Hi everyone!
Two weeks ago my boyfriend and I went to Budapest Zoo, and we finally had good luck! Lucy and little Boris II. were there! We were so happy that they came out, although there were a lot of people there, with noisy children too.
I think the manul enclosure isn't that big, but they have two little houses, Lucy and Boris II. came out from the house that was in one of the upper corners.
Little Boris II. came out, walked around the enclosure and played with their food. Lucy followed him, and played with him a little, she made sure that everything was ok, even though she probably didn't like the noisy people around them. In the end, the little one didn't want to go back to the house, but Lucy dragged him in!
We didn't see Bohus, he was probably separated from them.
i have a small collection of manul things. i have 2 plushes, both are purchased from cotswold wildlife park but i believe the brand can be purchased from multiple zoos in the uk. same goes for the keychain and fridge magnet. the badge is bought from krakow zoo! i hope to collect more manul items during my trip across europe. 🐾🤍
hello everyone!! this question has been troubling me for a while so i just wanted to straight up ask about it. does anyone know how shafran is doing?? i know she had paw surgery in april/may but i havent seen any updates about her since then and its already august. i also havent seen any recent photos of her and its starting to worry me :( is anyone informed about the state she is in??
What do you think, what could Pepeshunchiks be named? I think the boy Yuri, and the girl Alice.
If you liked the suggestion, spread it so that maybe the St. Petersburg Zoo itself will see it!
Any of you who've seen my last post, this is an update and realization.
I wasn't really thinking straight at the time, anxious and hopeless—no I have not committed any crime, just feared that I'd be arrested for speaking my mind.
I'm back because I realized manuls calmed me down, and I've been told to utilize that. The power of manuls is quite healing. So I wanted to go back to this place because of the lovely community here.
I probably won't post as frequently as last time, and I'll have a mix of reflections in my art works.
As for the reason why I made that post, I'm not sure it got cancelled, I've never got any updates from it, but I've been participating peacefully opposing it.
Few things are as lovely as a cat photo with a tongue out. In the posts Passport Photo with a Tongue Out and The Peculiarities of Manul Photography. International Cat Tongue Awareness Day, the basic principles of the awesomeness of cat photos with tongues out were examined. Today, we present a new study for your attention.
Licking as the terminal stage of tongue-ness.
After a hearty lunch, Timoshenka steps out onto the porch of the princely terem and gives a licking session.
