Taking advantage of the sunny weather, Chen Ying and Xiao Song heated some water, ready to give the three Clouded Leopards a bit of a wipe down.
Their fur had become matted from the serious injuries they had sustained, as well as the surgery and subsequent acupuncture and herbal fumigation treatments.
Cats are very clean creatures, and Clouded Leopards are no exception.
All three liked to lick their fur, but after being injured and immobilized for a few days, they were frustrated and unable to groom themselves, which left the Clouded Leopards feeling quite downcast.
Duanmu also came over to help.
He and Xiao Song cleaned the two Female Leopards together, while Chen Ying took care of the Male Leopard.
While wiping them down, he also checked the Male Leopard's recovery, which was better than he had expected.
Indeed, being wild, their physical condition really was different.
