Farewell, beautiful Penelope! 🌈
Friends, sad news from Cotswold Wildlife Park and Gardens: beautiful Penelope, sister of Pazzo and mother of Namuu, has passed away.
Penelope lived a long manul life—she was 10 years old.
Penny was absolutely delightful and utterly inimitable, with her extravagantly tousled fur and her signature especially grumpy and cross, yet incredibly charming, squinting gaze. That is how this amazing and unique manulady will remain in our memories and hearts 🧡
Farewell, Penny! May you have a sunny, boundless heavenly steppe and good hunting, beautiful manul!🙏

Oh, no! 😭
Анна, She was so wonderful and unique 😿 She will be sorely missed!
Always grumpy, squinting, and shaggy, as though she has just been woken up—such a beloved and one-of-a-kind girl 💔
Such a gloomy lioness—farewell, have a safe journey over the rainbow 😭
Goodbye, little dandelion!
May you have soft clouds and a bright rainbow 🥹
September 😪
Happy hunting in the upper tundra, kitty!
And this is a childhood photo of Penny with her brothers. She has always had her signature squint, even when she was an angry kitten. Penelope is so easy to recognize just by her gaze 💔
She was one of my very favorite manuls! What a pity I never got to meet her! 😿
Penya, Penya💔 Our girl. How could this happen?! 😿💔
May you have the best hunting on the rainbow🌈
What is this, honestly? Not even a week has passed, and there is yet another very sad piece of news about a little manul.
Oh, back in June. She managed to become a great-grandmother.
Анна, I absolutely love this photo💔 Such grumpy buns, but Penny is the very definition of grumpiness!
Oh my beautiful bed-headed girl! 💔
i will miss you
Penelope the rounded head
Penny was such a vibrant manul personality🥹 Once you saw her, you could never mistake her for anyone else! Can it really be that Patso is already 10 years old too..😥
l83, She is the great-grandmother of manul kittens with dragon names. That means she is the mother of dragons. Thanks to her daughter Namu, Penelope's family tree will continue to grow.
My precious, beloved, extraordinary Penny! I rarely like to single out favorites, but you hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for being with us! May you have soft little clouds and good hunting in the steppes of Manulgalla!
What awful, crushing news. I never met Penny, but she was precious to me by association. Sister to Pazzo, my beloved darling, and a roommate to my "son" Sayan. May the pika be plentiful beyond the bridge, sweet Penny.
Every time someone leaves—whether a person, a pet, or a beloved animal at the zoo—I say into the void:
— Thank you.
Thank you for being with us. Thank you for every glance and every breath.
Yesterday I wrote:
— We are lucky to live on the same planet as manuls. Which means today is a good day.
And today, I say publicly:
— We were lucky to make several revolutions around the Sun with Penelope. They were good years. Thank you! And good hunting in the upper tundra.
Goodbye, dear Penelope!
Have a peaceful rest above! 😢❤️🩹
Oh no! I wish I'd had a chance to meet her, I loved her so much from afar 💔 I'm glad her spirit will live on through Namuu and her descendants
Maxamillian John, I, too, dreamed of meeting her, and it is so sad that it never happened 💔🙏
Prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and farewell Penny.
Now that I checked Penelope's profile, I've seen that she was almost my birthday twin! 😭😭 My birthday is just one day later, and I thought it was a little bit early for minuls! 🥺❤️🩹
It's even more interesting that 21st March was my grandpa's birthday though!
good night Penelope, have a nice dream, see you soon.
