Animal interaction meet-cutes aren't always safe; animal interaction safety is always cute :) Every interspecies friendship is a glimpse of God 📖 Isaiah 11:6-9
One day they'll be able to smooch freely, but until we know Mimi a bit better, my weird hand is always sorta.. . present. 😂 She's been a doll, her claws are trimmed, she isn't reactive when surprised, but I take interspecies safety very seriously.
@kat_healing Thanks for sharing the steps along this interspecies journey 🐾 You gave them the care they now have for one another 💞 Fitting that Luna shows the Kat Grace ✨
@ZiggyWearsHats Respect for taking interspecies safety very seriously!! I like to say the animal interaction meet-cutes we see online aren't always safe, but animal interaction safety is always cute 😊 Mimi & Cloud are purroof 🐈⬛🐇
Tytan is a rhino. Notty is a zebra. Together, they are inseparable.
Both are orphans at our Nairobi Nursery and both were rescued in infancy. In their sheltered corner of Kenya, this peas-in-a-pod duo are growing fast: Tytan is already sharpening his horn against tree stumps. Notty met some wild zebra recently, but she wasn't ready to join them, preferring her human caregivers.
We rescue and raise orphans across many species – not just elephants. Their family at the Nursery is whichever animals are growing up alongside them.

His vast knowledge of the history of human-animal interaction serves him well. Each of his paintings is a story, many of them real historical anecdotes or scenes from mythology, all stunningly presented. And man, does he have some tales to tell.
