She's so adorable.

Rosie the pocketed free-tailed bat giving us a rare glimpse of bat belly, tummy piebald spots, a yawn, and the frantic foot maneuvers of bat grooming. Bats are very clean animals and groom frequently, using their toes and toe hairs as combs. 🦇

This is absolutely gorgeous!

She did all the hard work!

Bats have incredible healing powers. Cassidy the Mexican free-tailed bat came in with a huge tear in her wing. It took months, but the tear healed on its own & she was released. The only care we gave for it was flax oil to help keep the membranes pliable. 🦇

She's very photogenic.

Just wait until her TED talk!

She was just a baby then. 🥹

She's pleased.

Rosie has something to say, just hear her out. 🦇

Is there anything cuter than bat peek-a-boo?
Please ignore the little human squeak you hear, it was very hard not to laugh. 🦇

3 brownish bats cuddling, the middle bat is much smaller than the other 2.

Left to right cuddle buddies: Hoover, Bopple, Trixie.
Hoover and Trixie are Mexican free-tailed bats and Bopple is a canyon bat. We often find them in snuggle piles even though they aren't all the same species. 🦇

We wish we could hear what Captain Morgan was saying! Something about not getting out of bed after all, probably. 🦇

Thank you ❤️

Now we need a tiny black leather sofa.

We are heartbroken to announce that our beloved Queen Zora has passed away after a short illness. Despite stellar vet care, she was not able to bounce back. We're grateful for the time we had with her and the many ways she furthered our mission to teach people how amazing and adorable bats are.🦇

It's starting to warm up in Arizona and bats that migrate, such as Mexican free-tailed bats, are coming back from their winter homes. Sometimes they just need a little TLC before completing their journey. 🦇
