    if I ever see a slow loris in the wild, the first thing I'm going to do is tickle it :D
    (keeping my fingers away from its venom glands of course)

    I love the way it slowly brings the mealworms up to its mouth, and then suddenly just stuffs them inside like Cookie Monster

    It looks as though the tickling was a way to keep her off the computer playing games
