Volunteers spend a large number of hours preparing these animals so that they are in a playful mood by the time the tour starts and each time you will see these cats playing with different safe cat-toys and having a good time. You can check them out as they frolic about chasing balls or lazing about large trees. You can even peek directly into their dens and see their amazing reflector eyes peek back at you. Your guide will tell you all about each and every different cat species you visit and explain why they can’t go back to the wild and how being raised in captivity has changed them. You will also get to learn about the many threats and different challenges that they face for survival.
Also available is a separate tour for under 10-year-olds which will only go around the dirt paths and in fenced locations. The tour guide will provide the children with much more basic information in an entertaining way so as to keep them captivated. At the end on the tour, you will be provided with the Big Cat Rescue organizations information and information on how you can participate further to help support the cause and also how your children can spend only a few dollars to sponsor an animal and its wellbeing.
