White tiger cubs born in the Ukraine

By Ed on May 14, 2012 | In Moggy News, Tiger

A white tigeress named named Tigrulya gave birth to four tiger cubs in a Yalta zoo on the seventh of May. The newborns are in good health and are being taken care of by staff at the Skazka Zoo in southern Ukraine.

The name of the mother tiger, Tigrulya, was chosen to honour the former prime minister Yulia Tymoshenko. A contest is now being held to name the four newborn cubs.

It is very rare that four white tigers are born in a single litter and what is more one of the cubs is an albino with no striped markings on his body at all.

Previously (on the 4th August 2010) a litter of rare white tiger cubs were born at a zoo in northern Germany. These events are extremely important as fewer than 250 white tigers exist worldwide, most of them in captivity. It is said that less than one hundred white tigers exist in the wild.

Hi reader,

A warm welcome to moggyblog.com

Well, spring is almost upon us and Norman is out and about checking the bushes around his patch for any scent of his arch Nemesis the very big white Tom Cat from down the road..... and yes its spray,spray,spray to tell all potential usurpers that this is HIS patch ..... more on this story soon... it's going to be "claw fight at the ok corral" for sure....

This website intends to take a closer look at cats of every kind at every stage of life. The articles and pictures herein are for fun only, however we hope Moggyblog.com also carries some useful information about these feline creatures we know and love. My trusty pal (the British short-hair moggy) Norman, and I hope you enjoy your visit and we are further hoping you'll take the plunge and post a comment, an image, or even a short story about your beloved puss cat....
So for now it's

Cheers..
