In what is surely the cutest news out of Toronto today, the Toronto Zoo's red panda cub is thriving after a tragic July. 

Last month, the baby red panda female tragically lost her brother shortly after birth.

However, it appears she's doing well, judging by the ridiculously adorable photo the Zoo posted to social media on Thursday. She's now 30 days old and weighs over 300g.

The cub is apparently still smaller than usual for her age, but is growing quickly — probably because the staff are feeding her seven times a day. That's a vibe right there.

She is passing developmental milestones daily and, honestly, we couldn't be happier to hear it.

The Zoo warns that because of the size and age of the baby red panda, they are still in a critical period, but are optimistic for her health.
