 ACTION ALERT

Advocating for big cats can sometimes feel like we’re playing the whack-a-mole game. A horrible facility (Bowmanville Zoo in Canada) finally closed last year and we were thrilled. You may recall this is the zoo where owner Michael Hackenberger was seen in 2016 in an undercover video mercilessly whipping a terrified tiger.

But now this zoo has reopened and rebranded itself with a fancy-sounding new name (Clarington Family Outdoor Adventure Park) and some new management. But what hasn’t changed? The abuse to big cats and cubs; they are selling lion cub encounters. Don’t be fooled and don’t patronize this roadside zoo that has the audacity to claim their cub petting encounters are “good for the cubs to be handled because they need to be socialized to people.” Sickening.

ACTION ALERT —> PLEASE kindly post educational comments on the article: http://globalnews.ca/news/3659707/lion-cubs-clarington-family-outdoor-adventure-park/ If you are not sure what to say you can even copy/paste info from http://CubTruth.com to help educate other readers. PLEASE REMEMBER to be KIND & TEACHING!

People often ask what they can do to help.  Two of the biggest things you can do are:

  1. Educate the public and lawmakers:  Do that by looking for opportunities to talk about the issues and by commenting on every article or photo you see of people participating in the cub petting and cub photo schemes.  Keep your comments educational and polite.  Do not get sucked into arguments.  Do not be rude.  If some people reply rudely, ignore them, because you can’t change their mind anyway.  But instead remain kind and polite because other people reading will see the contrast between their rudeness and your kindness and will then be more inclined to remember your message.
  2. If you are in America please, PLEASE, make the Call of the Wild every week at http://BigCatAct.com

 Fish GOAL MET! THANK YOU!

Big Cat Rescue is blessed with the MOST AMAZING supporters!!!  You all are always there for the cats!!  We could not do what we do here without each and everyone of you walking beside us!  TOGETHER, we are all making a difference!

A few days ago we told all of you about a project we wanted to try to help cut down the number of mosquitoes bothering the cats.  We wanted to raise $700 to be used to purr-chase 2,800 Mosquito Fish to stock Tiger Lake and Vacation Rotation Pond.  Yesterday, the goal was met!!  A total of $755 was donated for this project.  Carole will be picking up the fish soon and is goign to try to broad cast that live.

  • See the fundraiser page for more details about this:  https://www.razoo.com/story/Fishes
  • Watch for an update when the fishes arrive at http://bigcatrescue.org/fishes-helping-big-cats/

Viewers suggested bat houses, too so I asked Carole about it and she said that we had just gotten some new ones and those should help as well.

Viewer Robin Frye:  Three Floofers in a Fishbowl

Viewer Lee Durbin captured a similar photo and commented: I have been watching the kitten cabana and just fell in love with these three babies. Yesterday they were hiding in the kittle box but this morning I saw them all climb into this little toy together. I had my doubts that third would be able to squeeze in but he sure managed to get in there J One of the bigger cats bullied them out of their little cave yesterday but they seem to be coming out more today. I am sure the interns are seeing to that 🙂

Viewer Robin Frye:  Handsome Seth Face:

Viewer Robin Frye:  Seth doing his best Yoda impersonation:
