Creature Comforts

This week’s issue is out on newsstands now. In our third annual Creature Comforts all-animal edition, we take a look at several great local organizations helping pets and their owners navigate food crises, Fossil Rim Wildlife Center’s amazing conservation efforts, Texas country megastar Miranda Lambert’s puppy-saving nonprofit, and so much more. Pick up your copy today, then look for all the articles soon here on FWWeekly.com.

Just like our beloved Jameela at the Fort Worth Zoo, Fiona the Hippo at the Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden is famous for surviving! She was born 6 weeks before her due date and was too small to stand and nurse from her mom, Bibi. The Zoo’s care team had to step in and figure out how to feed her, what to feed her, how to keep her warm, and how to manage critical care 24/7 while juggling other daily responsibilities. And just like Jameela, Fiona got some assistance from human healthcare workers, the team at Cinncinati Children’s Hospital. If you’re headed north this summer, be sure and visit Fiona! Read more at CincinnatiZoo.org and follow The Fiona Show on Facebook.
