ZooTampa welcomed a baby southern white rhino to the family. The calf was born during the overnight hours of Sunday, June 6, 2021. The female calf and her mom, 20 -year-old Alake, an experienced mother, are doing well. According to NBC News: "A Florida zoo announced the birth of a southern white rhino, the eighth to be born in Tampa as part of a plan to help the species. Officials at ZooTampa at Lowry Park said the baby was born to a 20-year-old rhino named Alake last week. The female calf has not been named yet, but both baby and mother are healthy and doing well."

"Alake was paired with the only adult male in the Tampa zoo, Ongava. Their calf will join the crash, or group of rhinos, in the coming weeks, zoo officials said. Visitors will be able to see the baby rhino in the new Expedition Wild Africa attraction, set to open soon." We are so happy to hear both that mom and baby are doing well, and that plans to help the species recover are working!

Happy Saturday, folks! We've been taking advantage of the weekend to do lots of relaxing, recharging, and spending time with our loved ones! That's what it's all about no? The day has gotten off to a pawesome start, lots of sunshine and good vibes, and it can only get better from here! We're bringing you some fresh feline humor from us right to your screens. We recommend scrolling through with a furry friend so that EVERYONE gets to enjoy the humor!

It's no secret that we love memes. It's also no secret that we love cats. What could be better than memes and cats? We'll tell you what. Hint: it starts with cat and ends with memes. CAT MEMES. There's just something about our mischievous and loveable four legged friends that make them such meme-able creatures. Let the laughter ensue. 

According to a report from the Good News Network: "Nearly seven in 10 Americans admit they take better care of their pet than themselves, according to a new poll. The survey of 2,000 American pet parents revealed 67% prioritize their pet over themselves—but results revealed it's a reciprocal relationship. Eight in 10 respondents said taking care of their pet actively encourages them to take better care of themselves." This is no surprise for us, but is awesome to see some official data on the matter. Pets are good for our health, both mental and physical!

The report continues to say: "In what ways do Americans' pets help respondents with their own health? Respondents said the biggest benefit their pet provides is reducing their stress, depression and/or anxiety (72%). In addition to that, respondents said their pet helps them to exercise (62%)—by taking their pets for walks, playing in their house, an so on—and their pet helps them to be more cautious of the food they eat (44%), too." Story via Good News Network. It comes as no surprise that pets play a big role in our mental health, physical health, and overall wellbeing. We want to be the best most healthy people we can be for our furry friends! They encourage us to be the best versions of ourselves, and there is nothing more wholesome than that.
