Bobcat Rehab Update
UPDATE on Sky, our newest rehab bobcat rescued on Sunday who gave birth to 3 kittens (Azul, Cobalt, and Indigo) that day while trapped in a farmer’s trap. They are all safe at Big Cat Rescue now and will be rehabbed as a family and eventually released back into the wild. Jamie reports mama bobcat Sky is taking really good care of her kittens.
Dr. Justin weighed and examined them yesterday: Cobalt (pictured here) is a 7-ounce boy, Indigo and Azul are both 6-ounce girls! Jamie covered a large rehab hospital cage with mesh and added it to Sky’s current cage so she has a lot more room now too.

Today was a busy day and we had just enough people to get everything done! Thank you to everyone who helped out!
Hoover was moved into the outside recovery cage. Food-prep was finished around tour time thanks to Mazz, Fred Pagan, and Caity Farr. Sharon Henry and Marie Schoubert did the cicle cats. Sign-offs for enrichment and operant were completed today for those that needed them.
There were a few projects done today!
- Bethany Smith and Devin Saari worked out in the Bobcat Rehab area. She mowed Bravo and Tangos enclosure and Devin Saari mowed Alpha’s.
- Mazz and Devin Saari scrubbed clean the outside recovery cage for Hoover to move into for the next few days.
- Bethany Smith and Devin Saari cleaned the transport cage that Hoover was in and it’s now drying by the cleaning slab.
- Caity Farr and Fred Pagan worked in the enclosure our guest cougar was moved into it still needs to be finished.
Thank you to everyone who helped out today!

Videos of the Day
Yesterday we had to say goodbye to our sweet Zabu, the white tigress. Zabu was a gentle, loving girl in her later years who will be missed greatly by us all. But she is at peace and free now, reunited with Cameron. I wanted to share with you all in 360, one of the quieter times I sat with her and just observed the beautiful being she was.
This looks AMAZING if you wear Oculus Go, HTC Vive, Rift, Cardboard or any other sort of HMD. Get our inexpensive headset and support the cats at the same time at BigCatRescue.org/VR
