Donating
Big cats may be the king of beasts, but without you they can’t survive. Donate to save big cats.
In order to meet the varying interests of our donors below are brief descriptions of different ways to donate. We hope you will find one that appeals to you. Every donation helps. We appreciate your support at whatever level is possible for you.
General Donations
One of the best ways to help is through general donations that can be used however it is most needed at the time.To make a general donation just click the Donate Now button below. This is the best way to give as it has the lowest credit card processing fees and is immediate help for the cats.
Big Cat Rescue will not share or sell a donor’s personal information with anyone else, nor send donor mailings on behalf of other organizations.
Pay Pal
If you prefer to donate via Pay Pal, please use our email address of customerservice@bigcatrescue.org as the recipient. PayPal pays all of the credit card costs for us here: https://www.paypal.com/fundraiser/charity/2965
But if you want to make it a recurring donation, use this:
Make My Monthly Donation |
Sponsorships $25 to $5000
This is our form of “membership”. Choose a particular cat to have your donation associated with and provide ongoing annual support for that cat at a level you choose. Details/Buy Sponsorship Kit or download a tiger sponsor kit here.
Sustaining Donors Society – Automated Giving – Checking, Credit Card, PayPal or Razoo
Having your donation made by monthly or annual deductions from a bank account (which costs us the least in fees taken from your donation) or charges to a credit card or PayPal is particularly helpful because it allows us to better plan our cash flow to care for the cats while saving our donors the time it takes to mail checks or donate online. As members of our Sustaining Donors Society you receive special recognition on the website, in every issue of the Big Cat Times and on a sign outside our Trading Post in addition to the other recognition associated with your donation. Automated donations can be changed or discontinued at any time.
To donate automatically from a checking account or with a credit card, please use this form: Monthly Donation Form
Or by credit card, you can help feed tigers here and under the donation amount select Recurring contribution.
Thanks for becoming a Sustaining Donor!

“It is wonderful to visit Big Cat to see the lovely memorial to our cats. Over the years, three of our beloved cats passed away and we feel so much at peace to have them permanently remembered at a place where thousands of animal lovers will see the plaques each year. The plaques are beautiful and capture the likeness of our wonderful pets. It’s heartwarming to honor our much missed cats.” Mary Key
Wall Fund – Protect the Cats from Intruders
We had an incident where teenagers shot paintballs through our chain link perimeter fence at some of the leopards. As development closes in around us the risk to the cats of this or more dangerous intrusion grows. Of our 7000 foot perimeter, we completed 1000 feet of wall in 2008 and another 660 feet in 2009. We have about 2000 feet guarded only by an aging chain link fence that we hope to do in 2010. Each foot of wall costs about $100 and you can donate as many feet as you are able. Wall donors are currently recognized on a special sign in the tour waiting area and will eventually be listed on a permanent appreciation sign. Details/Photos/Donate
