Watch: Rescued mountain lion cub snuggles with ‘perfect plushy’

Date:

The Oakland Zoo has shared adorable footage of its newly acquired mountain lion cub snuggling with its favorite toy and comfort item – a plushy stuffed dog.

“The perfect plushy just hits different!” the zoo exclaimed via social media.

Footage shows Briar, who was rescued in early August after being found without a mom in El Dorado County, is shown cozying up to and napping briefly upon the stuffy’s shoulders.

Briar was 4 or 5 weeks old when he was rescued – a search failed to turn up its mom – and will be cared for by the Oakland Zoo until a forever home can be found.

One of the top comments: “Thank you, for everything you’ve done for Briar. I still think of Mama.”
