Pallas’s cat residents and exhibit status can change. Please check each zoo’s official website before visiting.

I spend my weekends in Japanese zoos, waiting quietly for the Pallas’s cats to wake up. This is where I keep my honest notes on which zoos to visit, when the manul are most active, the photos I manage to bring home, and the small meals I find nearby.
