Imagine meeting this whilst doggy paddling down at the deep end!

Most cats do not like getting wet - as anyone who has tried to bathe a moggie will know.

But as these pictures show, there's always the exception to the rule. For the cat in question is a large male white Bengal tiger called Odin.

Six years old, and at the prime of his life, Odin lives at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Zoo in Vallejo, near San Francisco. He is about 10ft long from nose to tail, and is an excellent swimmer.


More.......including extra pics and a video.

Reads like a tiger dating advert...

Brilliant picture though.

So he's a cat. Why does he do the dog paddle?

Apparently, he loves it and only wrinkles up his nose to stop the water getting in.

Ha! Cheeta post.

No, it was just on my TV news, which made me go and find it on the web.
