"Gerda is very relaxed about the ear cleaning procedure, even though it is a new and unfamiliar procedure to her. To be more exact Sasha already did it once, but until that moment she did not know what it is. She even seems to enjoy it."

"This is the story about Gerda the Cheetah, who is part of the Messi The Puma family.

The Alexander and Maria Dmitriev wanted to adopt a Cheetah, but this was not easy, they searched all over Russia, but could not find one, after awhile, anyone who was connected with big cats knew about the couples search for one.
Just when they ready to give up looking, the Sochi Zoo in Russia, approached the couple, looking to sell a healthy 7 year old female cheetah, which they could no longer afford to keep, but the price tag was above all expectations.

For 2 weeks they tormented over the decision, until Alexsandr decided to fly to the zoo to see the cheetah in person to help decide.

She turned out to be a very affectionate big cat, she allowed Aleksandr to do an examination of her, and during that time she purred and licked his hands, and he fell in love instantly.

After seeing her in person, that was it, from that moment on it was all about how can they raise the money.

The couple put up part of their property for sale and borrowed some money from a friend, but finally they had enough.

Soon after, Gerda arrived at her new home, and the cat immediately felt at home and the couple felt the same.

Gerda may have a fierce appearance of a wild animal, but just like Messi, is loved and has become part of the family.

Thanks for watching."

"Stevie the pangolin was rescued from the illegal wildlife trade. When he was brought to the Johannesburg Wildlife Vet Hospital, he met Dr. Kelsey Skinner and accepted her as his new mom. Kelsey fed him bottles, even burped him, and took him for walks to find termite mounds. On the way, Stevie rode on her back and stopped to play with his favorite rock. Now Stevie has been released back to the wild to live on his own, but Kelsey will always be grateful for her time with Stevie.

Special thanks to Johannesburg Wildlife Veterinary Hospital & African Pangolin Working Group for all the wonderful work they do. Keep up with Johannesburg Wildlife Veterinary Hospital on Facebook https://thedo.do/johannesburgwildlife... & African Pangolin Working Group on Facebook https://thedo.do/AfricanPangolin. "
