National Zoo Video of Clouded Leopard Cub

There's pretty much only one word to describe this new video from the National Zoo of one of its day-old clouded leopard cubs feeding from a bottle: Squeeeeee!

Awwww. If baby pandas and rainbows could procreate, their offspring would look a lot like these little fellas. The Zoo needs to have a leopard cub petting day, stat.

Since the name "Butterstick" is already taken, I dub thee, "Parkay Margarine Tub Unsalted" and "Sweet Cream."

I have never seen anything more squeeeee!!! than that little kitten feeding! I want it named Squeee. Or Amy Winehouse, because it loves the bottle.

Sooo cute, but how come the zoo insists on calling them "cubs" and not kittens?

National Zoo policy. Every newborn animal is referred to as a cub. Panda cubs, leopard cubs, monkey cubs, dolphin cubs, bald eagle cubs, gila monster cubs...you get the idea. Makes the paperwork easier.

...because when they grow up, they will want to kill and eat you. kind of like lions and panthers.

Omigod, did you see his little paw grabbing onto the guy's finger? So unbearably cute!

Although I also noticed those claws already look pretty sharp.

I don't know if my brain can handle the cuteness.

I think I want one of these more than I want a panda!

he doesnt have to be so rough!
