Sometimes, though, we have to share some sad news and this time it is with a heavy heart we farewell our much adored mini bear Caz, here in Vietnam.

We miss little Caz but can take heart knowing that many of the recently relocated Nanning bears are relishing their new freedoms at our sanctuary in Chengdu.

SHORT AND FUNNY CLIP !

That's a bit of a roundup for the sanctuary news. So that just leaves …. My news! My puzzle got a lovely boost in June and is chugging along nicely but still 36 pieces to go! With so many bears now needing loving care and our second Vietnam sanctuary underway soon … we know one bear is already taken care of… when you support ME!

I'D LOVE A LITTLE SOMETHING IN MY HONEY POT PLEASE

But before I go I promised you one more story: In July and August we bears got into the Olympic spirit with our very own Bearlympics ! We had all sorts of events: weightlifting, shot put, gymnastics, paw ball, plank twirling, log lift. But I’d have to say of all the events THIS video shows my favourite Bearlympic sport….
