Most cats do not like getting wet - as anyone who has tried to bathe a moggie will know.

But as these pictures show, there's always the exception to the rule. For the cat in question is a large male white Bengal tiger called Odin.

Six years old, and at the prime of his life, Odin lives at the Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Zoo in Vallejo, near San Francisco. He is about 10ft long from nose to tail, and is an excellent swimmer.

Wet 'n'wild: Odin learned to swim by diving in after chunks of meat

he water is grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreat!

In fact, although Big Cats generally do not like water, tigers of all types have been spotted taking to the water to hunt and even to bathe for pleasure.

If you watch the National Geographic Chanel or any Sigfried and Roy BIO you already know ALL tigers like to get wet not just this dude... But it is cool to see how he can open his eyes under water he looks pissed.
