ππΎ Sunny Days and Serval Plays!!
Spring is in the air, and our African Serval Cats are leaping into the season with happiness! πΌ As the weather warms up, our sleek and stunning servals are making the most of their outdoor yard, turning every day into an adventure.
Meet Savanna, our charismatic serval, who's not just enjoying the sunshine but also sharing some fascinating feline behaviors with us! π±β¨ Did you know that cats have scent glands on their face? Yes, that's right! These clever creatures use these glands to mark their territory and claim their favorite spots, and Savanna is no exception.
Watch as Savanna gracefully rubs her face against one of her cherished spots in the yard. It's her way of saying, "This is mine!" But wait, there's more to this adorable behavior. While she's marking her territory, Savanna also indulges in some delightful scratching from the soft grass. It's a win-win; she gets to claim her space and enjoy a good facial at the same time. Talk about knowing how to live the good life!
Savanna's antics are not just cute; they're a peek into the fascinating world of serval behavior and how these majestic animals interact with their environment. Join us to catch Savanna and our other African Serval Cats in action. It's a purr-fect way to welcome the warmer days, learn something new, and maybe even pick up some tips on how to enjoy the great outdoors from the experts themselves. πΈπΊ

Weβre passionate about providing our furry, feathered, and scaly friends with the best life possible at Leesburg Animal Park. Thatβs why enrichment is a huge part of our daily routine - itβs all about giving our animals creative outlets for physical activity, mental exercise, and the freedom to choose how they spend their time.
Β
What is enrichment, you ask? π€ Itβs a variety of activities and devices designed to stimulate our animalsβ natural behaviors and instincts. From puzzle feeders that challenge them to forage for food, to climbing structures that mimic their wild habitats, and engaging training sessions that build trust and skills - we make sure thereβs always something new and exciting happening!
Β
In todayβs highlight, meet Tessa! Β Tessaβs showing off her incredible problem-solving skills by engaging in foraging behavior. This not only provides her with essential mental and physical stimulation but also makes mealtime a fun and rewarding puzzle. Tessa is a true testament to the power of enrichment - watching her figure out her βpuzzlesβ is a joy!
Β
At Leesburg Animal Park, we believe that enrichment is vital for the well-being of all our residents. Itβs not just about keeping them entertained; itβs about enhancing their quality of life, promoting natural behaviors, and ensuring they have control over their environment.
Β
Join us in celebrating the wonders of enrichment and the amazing animals like Tessa who remind us every day of the joy in discovery and the thrill of the chase. Visit us to see the magic in action and learn more about how we care for our animal family. π¦
