| Thailands Zoos and animals The forum to tell us about your visits to the tiger temples in Kanchanaburi or the tiger zoo in Sri Racha, crocodile farms in Pattaya & Bangkok, Thai elephant kraals in Ayutthaya & Phuket, Panda bears in Chiang Mai zoo. Thailand has many zoo's and wildlife sanctuaries and quite often you can get the oppurtunity to eat crocodile eggs, or emu steaks and many other exoctic dishes, so post the pictures and videos to share here. |

| Khao Manee Cat For those who love cats. First I just have to say I was devastated by the death of my Seal Point Siamese cat "Yen" when he died after being misdiagnosed with a throat infection when in fact it was a much more serious disease and was not diagnosed before it was too late to save him. But I sure did try, he was in my arms with an I.V. in his when he died. So I was not really over it but, the lady I have been seeing has pretty much moved in and she is the same person that gave me the seal point and wants to have a cat. She had mentioned a white cat, one blue eye and one green, that she had many years ago and kept telling me how hard it is to find them and how rare they are. I had never seen one outside of pictures and commercials. So this a genuine breed. Originally bred only by Thai royalty especially Rama 5. There is more info here if you are interested. http://www.ayshazencats.co.uk/khaomanee/articles/km.pdf So with no hope of finding this cat I went on looking for any kitten I could bring home to make her happy. Asking pet shops of all kinds in any place I happen to be on the road, anybody that had any cat anywhere. I had to make a trip to an employee's house to get a key from him when I saw a black cat in the area. I asked one of the locals if there were any kittens around and he said, "aow maow mai"?"mee song thua si khao mod loey" And he shows me this guy and gal. WOW!!! That easy uh. To say the least the Mss was happy.. Anyway these cats are two cool felines. Instantly well behaved in the house, very very intelligent and super friendly and lovable. They are brother and sister I believe so if anybody is within a 5 hour driv of Chiang mai and knows where I can get the a girl friend, let me know. The Female is pregnant from an all black cat that I saw I think. Well be popping out in a month or so, also let me know if you want one. Really beautiful cats...
