| We call him 'Tunpi' for short, but he is anything but small.
In fact, he is the biggest cat on the compound. Unfortunately, he was
also declawed prior to his arrival which means extra caution in making sure
his grounds remain soft enough for him to move about on with all his weight.
Sometimes it's hard to tell what's going on in Ake Nitunpi's head. The
psychological scars from a life long past occasionally result in
unpredictable actions. But overall, Tunpi tries to be easy-going.
If not simply because his clawed enclosure mates will only put up with his
antics for so long.
