AWESOME Vid: Do BIG CATS Like Fish?

Hi!

If you love cats, then today's video will give you the "warm and fuzzies."

As I've written elsewhere—I LOVE cats—from domestic kitties to magnificent African lions—and everything in between.

So when I saw this video from the folks at Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida—I KNEW I wanted to share it with you here.

Apparently these rescue cat's normal diets consist of red meat—but the video shows a worker feeding them fresh fish—and recording their reactions.

-------------------------------------------

Most of the cats (a jaguar, cougar, serval, caracal, bobcat, and so on) gobble the the morsels down—although at the end the video shows several of these majestic felines who weren't impressed with their sea-food offerings.

My favorite—and popular with commenters as well—shows one cat, Simba, a Savannah (at 53 seconds), who quickly devours several pieces while making a loud "num-num" sound.

It's very interesting to see how different each cat's personality is—some are very aggressive—while others seem more like docile house cats.

Anywho—hope you enjoy this video as much as I did.






Thanks for stopping by.

See you again soon!

"Extinguished" - Charming 3D Animation Short

A Screen Capture From The 3D Animation — "Extinguished"

---------------------------------------

Hi!

Through the years, Ringling College Of Art And Design in Sarasota, Florida, has produced a number of excellent student animators and artists—and many go on to work for the major studios that create the large budget 3D animated films, TV cartoons, and commercials/ads we're all likely familiar with.

Fortunately, the school and its students share their animation projects on-line—and IMHO many rival the quality of what you'd expect from a studio with a HUGE budget like Pixar.

A case in point, is a lovely 3D animation called Extinguished—by Ringling students Ashley Anderson and Jacob Mann.

The plot features a young man searching for love—and all the highs and lows that go along with that.

Bonus points go to Corey Wallace who created a perfect music track for this student project. 

Enjoy!
