Item Description

Join Big Cat Rescue's knowledgeable staff for a one-of-a-kind private tour for ten guests of the world's largest sanctuary for big cats.

This 45 acre wildlife sanctuary is home to 140 cats representing 16 species of wild cat. All in one place you can see Lions, Tigers, Geoffroy Cats, Jungle Cats, Servals, Caracals, Snow Leopards, Bobcats, Lynx and more.

Big Cat Rescue is the largest accredited sanctuary in the country dedicated entirely to abused and abandoned big cats. Big Cat Rescue is accredited by the Global Federation of Sanctuaries.

The mission of Big Cat Rescue is to provide the best home we can for the animals in our care and to reduce the number of cats that suffer the fate of  abuse,  abandonment or extinction by teaching people about the plight of the cats, both in the wild and in captivity, and how they can help through their behavior and support of better laws to protect the cats.
