Coordinator Report Wednesday 3/29/2017

Sioux is very restless in the hospital. No pee pads under her cage she will pull them up and shred them. She likes the lights out and music on.

TJ and Seth are both locked in their roof sections. TECO is coming tomorrow to put in new power poles.

We got a red meat delivery and everyone worked together to get it unloaded and sorted into the walk-in freezer.

Some raking got done in front section.

Picky cats did ok:

Tj ate 9 lbs
Cameron 5 lbs
Joseph 6 lbs
Hoover 5 lbs Hoover was very distracted today
Zeus 7 lbs. Zeus did not want to come in his lockout for eye drops. Zeus likes his meat cut up rather small.

That’s it for me.

Joseph the lion hates me! Once in a while I try to get a good look at him to make sure he appears healthy never goes well.

A lion does not forget when you shoot him in the behind with a dart and then do surgery on him.

Featured Big Cat – Wyeth

Wyeth Goes Back to the Wild TODAY

Recap of Wyeth’s Story

When a couple accidentally hit this little 8 month old bobcat, they called the Pinellas County Sheriff’s department for help. Deputy Wyeth had been to Big Cat Rescue before and scooped the broken little body up and rushed her to our front gate, where he called our emergency line, which rings to my mother, Barbara Stairs, who met him at the gate.

She called Jamie and Dr. Justin who arrived on the scene, 10 minutes later, to witness this brave deputy, pulling the very angry bobcat from the back seat of his vehicle. He and Barbara were trying to safely contain her in the tiger transport but the bobcat was spread eagle over the entrance and NOT going in.

Give to Big Cat RescueJamie arrived just in time to help push her in while Barbara snapped this image. Jamie then took a photo of the little bobcat in the tiger transport. See image at the top of the page.

Wyeth’s X-rays looked good, so Dr. Justin Boorstein stitched up some minor wounds and we were hoping we could just give her some time to heal before sending her back to the wild.

Amazing sanctuary. Staff love these animals and do amazing work by providing them permanent homes...where they should be...in the wild. Terrible so many people want these cats as pets. Unfair to the animal, but luckily Big Cat Rescue saved these precious furangels!

One of the most respected rescue organizations I know. If you care for animals this is the kind of organization you want to be a part of, follow, & support.

Great tour in a hot day. Tour guide very informative and answered questions. Afternoon tours less likely to see all the cats, but we were lucky. Different morning tours available. All tours booked in line at bigcatrescue.org Worth a trip!

It gives the history of all the cats, big and small, at this wonderfully educational conservancy. We had a remarkable guide, Denny, who was extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. We must do all we can to protect these endangered animals.

Visited the sanctuary March 2017 have to say they take amazing care of all the big cats. We all wish places like this didn’t need to be but we sadly know people try to keep them as pets and are neglectful.

I had the please of staying here back in 2001 as part of my honeymoon. I stayed in a cabin next to a lion named Maya that suffered seizures. Staying here and donating our time to help feed and learn about these beautiful creatures was an experience I'll always remember.

Janine Boguslawski

2018-09-08T18:22:27+0000

i recommend these vids for everyone in order to educate people about wild animals. They are not pets.And if we want to save their kind we must respect that.BCRescue shows this in many ways and loves them as much.

These glorious animals are being well taken care of by the amazing volunteers who work out in the heat . Keeping things clean , animals fed . You can visit and make a donation at the same time . ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

You are one of the best educated and most caring sanctuaries for captive bred and domesticated big cats in the country. You have a wonderful rehabilitation program as well as your kitten cabana for younger domestic cats. You are a caring and wonderful group of people.

2018-09-03T13:17:58+0000

They are true to there word! Everything they receive goes only to-the care of these cats! If you love big cats who have a forever safe home please help them. They just don’t want my money There are lots of things they can use help with. These cats come from every where. And some abused! Find it in your heart to help them. Some cats are disappearing. Also so important, they don’t bread them!

De tour was great but due to lightning iT stopped After 0,5 hr 😩 got full refund which i think was not necessary because the money is for the animals. Wanted to order Some bracelets online but the shipping cost to belgium was Almost 200€ 😳

Maryann Jordan

2018-09-03T06:48:48+0000

I recommend Big Cat Rescue because of the kind care and compassion they continue to provide all different big cats they have rescued over the years. They have a hospital on grounds as well so they can provide the best medical care for each cat.

all of the staff and volunteers are so good, patient n caring with these animals. you can tell they love them. and they are eager to pass on any knowledge they have to help educate the public not only about the cats themselves, but about the dire situation some of the breeds are in all over the world and how people exploit them. they are a wealth of knowledge and if they dont know, they will find out for you. cats n kind hearted people...... cant think of a better match in the whole world ❤

The chance to see rescued cats in their forever home. No one gets paid here so it’s a true Non-profit. It’s amazing 💕

William Cash

2018-08-13T15:14:16+0000

I have to say, I am extremely disappointed with the response time, or LACK THERE OF, from Big Cat Rescue. Not only did I contact you multiple times regarding the Walkabout Safari but my friend did as well. It took well over a week to respond and then we were both misinformed regarding the availability of tickets. We were very interested in this event and were waiting for information from you before purchasing tickets. My original attempt to contact someone was July 30th. That was on FB messenger. I then called 3 times, of course no one to speak to. I then sent 2 emails from separate accounts. A week later I received an auto response with 20% of the ticket price. THE EVENT WAS SOLD OUT BY THEN and had been for days! Then this morning at 2:30AM, I finally received a response from my original request for information about ticket prices for my infant, to which you told me he would also be $25.00… WHY even respond at this point? The even has been sold out for over a week. Poor, poor communication and customer service! Sadly, you’ve lost a potential visitor which is a shame because we are cat lovers and would have loved to visit and revisit but can’t support that kind of customer service!

Sean Howell

2018-08-12T11:06:30+0000

I think the most important thing is the feeling in your heart, That said: WOW what an amazing place. I have always had some small interest in wild animals, But I never new just how much I’d be moved till I came to visit for the first time to Big Cat Rescue. If you’ve ever seen the movie “ We Bought A Zoo” I think you’ll somewhat understand the meaning of of what it takes to care of big cats. Actually it doesn’t, you’ll have to visit this wonderful Rescue facility to understand. It is truly people and places like this that make a world of difference. Please visit, you won’t regret it.

Truly wonderful sanctuary with hard working volunteers. Very open book you always get updates on the cats and new things going on. They respect the cats and give them good quality of life. They are fighting to pass a law to ban the private ownership of big cats with HR 1818/s2990 They truly educate the public about what these cats go through and their suffering.

Shawn Lingle

2018-07-29T17:05:30+0000

Big Cat Rescue is the most amazing place! The cats are all rescued from bad situations either private owners didn't take care of them or circuses or roadside attractions that have abused them and now they're living out their lives in an environment full of love and the best care available. The tours give you the background on the animals and allow you to see them in a happy place - unlike a zoo or circus. The best tours are keeper tours, feeding tours or private tours. They cost more but are so worth it! (Note in case you're wondering, because these animals are born in captivity, they can't be released into the wild.)

We had the privilege of a private tour on 7/24/18. I am awed by the labor of love in this sanctuary. It is obvious how content these cats are. No pacing or agitation. Just lounging, rolling and interested looks at the crazy visitors in the rain. What an amazing experience! If they can't be in their natural habitats, this is the next best thing. Thank you for taking care of these gorgeous, majestic creatures.

Was there on 7/22/18 and did a day tour. They met us at the gate to save time and get our waiver signed. Saw lots of cats. The interns were lovely and even offered my friend and I free drinks cos we were getting overheated. Definitely want to go back! Everyone there was awesome and you can tell how much they care about the cats and their guests.

David Rice

This was our second night tour and our 4th time overall. This night tour is the best tour to do you get to see a lot of the cats at dark. This tour was our best ever we saw a lot. It was nice to see Zabu again and her friend the lion my favorites. This is a must tour for everyone and your supporting the cats with your admission fee. Win Win for the cats

This rescue is amazing! They take such great care of these precious animals. I love the fact that they don't breed them! The place is huge and beautiful and you can tell that they put a lot of work into making sure the cats have everything they need. I will definitely be back the next time we visit Florida.

They do an amazing job by taking care of the cats they provide them with the opportunity to explore vacation rotation which is a big huge enclosure outdoors with pools and platforms and toys they even do Facebook live where we get to see the cats when they go around and give them their meds and breakfast

I loved the tour. The guide was knowledgeable and the pre recorded animal histories were interesting. Despite the heat, alot of cats were out to see the tour. I think we we're just as interesting to them as they were to us. It was sad to hear the things the cats had been thru, but i am glad they are at the rescue. They have a huge area and are cared for well.

Heather Decker

I have now visited twice and have been a long term supporter every year. These cats live 10+ longer than they would in the wild, and all have trust funds should something happen to them and the sanctuary closes down or doesn't make it. Everything is so planned out. And it was great to see a tiger on Funcation!

Inspiring to see this place fight back against horrible humans and give these gorgeous creatures a second chance. I highly recommend every child and adult visit this place. You will walk away a changed person. I promise you, you’ll want to do more.

This place seemed a little expensive at the time but after the fantastic tour by a well educated volunteer I found the money to be well spent and even spent a bit more in the gift shop! These are good people doing good things but they send the message home that these cats belong in the wild.

I have been following BCR for years, and all the good they do for the cats. I finally had the opportunity to go see them, and enjoyed it very much! Susan toured my husband and I around the facilities, telling us so much information about each of the cats and their breed - making the visit amazing. Thank you to the employees, as well as volunteers, for all the work you do for the cats, making their finial years enjoyable. You guys rock! ❤️❤️❤️

Simba, the newest savannah prisonor to the hellhole known as BCR, deserves a home! These cats do not deserve to be dumped off at a dam roadside zoo like trash! I could not even read the poor kitty's bio. The owner loved this cat?! If she loved him he would of been turned over to "The Savannah Rescue." This wonderful organization would of found a home for him that meets his specific needs. Instead he is never going to know the touch of a human, the closeness that most owners feel for their savannahs; and the savannah feels for their human. This feline was betrayed by his owner. I hope she burns in hell along with the founder of BCR. He is now a prop for their campaign of hate against hybrid cats. This is not love.. It is hate! How can anyone that owns a savannah be so heartless?! I will pray daily that BCR is shut down, and those poor animals rehomed to a place that actually loves these animals. Not to be used as a cash cow for the greedy founder and her family! Funny how I saw a video with Baskin saying what wonderful pets bengals are along with soft pelts. That was when she failed to breed early generation bengals. How funny Baskin's opinion changed, when she realized the money is running a scam rescue. I hate BCR and their supporters! SET SIMBA FREE!

Big Cat Rescue is doing excellent work in ending the abuse of captive big cats and saving wild cats from extinction. These beautiful cats have a forever home and are well cared for by BCR. I enjoyed the tour and hearing the stories of the different big cats and how they ended up at this wonderful sanctuary.

I just visited for the first time yesterday. It was amazing! The animals were beautiful and well cared for. The tour guide, Denny, was wonderful. He knew every animal, where it came from, how it had adjusted to its new life. And every animal seemed to know them, too. Thanks to everyone, and especially Melinda Berkley-Coats who invited us. We'll be back!

A clean n organized facility..cats were not real active due to the heat but getting to see close was amazing...really liked the headsets so easy to hear the pre recorded stories..my elderly mom said it would be great if you could,also hear the tour guide thru the ear piece. Sad to know in our country such rediculous abuse is going on. Some for money and other for vanity. Adopt a kitten people a big cat is not a house pet!!! Defiantly want to come back for a photography safari..

Susan Dragieff

2018-06-16T06:27:52+0000

This is a genuine, caring sanctuary where the big cats live a life of care and love since they were rescued. It is as close to being wild for them as they can be. And, a forever home of being "wild at heart." No exploitation ever again. I support them and contribute to their care.

The trip to see these big guys at Big Cat Rescue was a JOY!!! It was a thrill to see these sweeties being well cared for and obviously loved! The volunteers are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Places like this are SO needed-----which is a tragic commentary about humans. The human animal can be the the most savage, uncaring, superstitious-riddled monster on the planet!

Rebecca Rhodes

A great facility and a wonderful tour! I’ve been following BCR online for years, and I finally got to Tampa to visit. It was more than worth it. Although I’m sad about what people have done to these poor animals in the past, it is fantastic to see the cats getting such good care in their retirement home. I wish all sanctuaries would emulate the compassion and care of BCR. The staff were so nice and great about answering all our questions. A must see experience!

Ron Hill

The rain was perfect to help us to view the cats. Well some of the cats didn’t like the rain, duh!! Thank you to the rescue for providing ponchos. The hearts of the volunteers are super awesome. Their passion to help us understand what these cats have been through is a blessing.

Brandy McCowan

What a great place!! It's awesome that there's a local organization dedicated to preserving the integrity of big cats after they are no longer wanted by the people who thought they would make great pets. We did the kid tour and the volunteers did a great job of telling the cat's stories and explaining how they care for and keep the cats. The cats are all so beautiful and amazing and we we're lucky enough to get to see a lot of them.

Linda Howard

2018-05-13T22:10:08+0000

I appreciate and fully support Big Cat Rescue’s mission. The valuable education they provide, and the support they give to worldwide efforts to save and protect cats from exploitation and trafficking are vital to the their survival. Their facility is amazing - from living space, medical care, enrichment program and dietary needs they provide the closest “living wild and free” environment as possible. These are extraordinary, dedicated and well trained people who are committed to caring for cars rescued from unacceptable situations. Their sharing of stories about their own cats, as well as others around the world, provides us with opportunities to help make an impact on issues like breeding for cub exploitation, private ownership, smuggling, and hybrid breeding. I am proud to be one of their supporters.

My dream to visit BCR finally came true and it was truly amazing! Not only are the grounds beautiful, the staff and volunteers so nice, knowledgeable and hard workers but the cats are very well cared for and LOVED! Of course we all can agree that freedom is the best way for these magnificent cats to live, however, this is the next best thing as it’s not possible. I spent 3 days doing all the tours and each was special in its own way. It’s very apparent how much these babies are loved and given the best life possible and it’s the cats the make the rules and the keepers are the trained ones - lol Big Cat Rescue is Truly a special place. When you learn about where most of the cats came from, your heart breaks. They now are able to live out their lives in a safe, loving and caring environment!

I came to Big Cat Rescue on 28th April whilst visiting Florida from the United Kingdom. I have watched the live videos and followed BCR very closely over the last year and a half and the tour did not disappoint. The staff were so friendly and you can see just how much they care for these animals and want the best for them and all cats in the future. I am so grateful I got to visit and see just how much work goes on and how lucky these cats are to get a second chance at a loving life. The work they do is incredible and I cannot wait to visit again � Thank you for all you do.

Whitney Arcaro

2018-05-09T22:52:08+0000

I love watching all the videos that BCR posts. They really do everything that is in the best interest for the cats. I hate seeing these negative reviews. Do you know how hard it is to take care of 70 big cats! All the enclosures, food and medical bills!! It’s a tough job! And BCR has awesome volunteers that come and dedicate their time to help take care of these big cats! I live in Tampa and I am so excited to go visit BCR and take one of their tours! Keep up the awesome work!

Kaylee Elsman

I love what BCR has been doing for the big cats in last 20+ yrs. Plus they have a bobcat rehabilitation program that helps save and teaches baby bobcats to fend for their own & then when ready are released back in the wild where they should be. If i could i would help & volunteer for BCR.

We did the Keeper Tour last week and it is not to be missed! You get a real appreciation for the majestic beauty of these animals and just how much they need our protection. Of course, they are cats so our enrichment toys went untouched! ;) They are doing great work here - definitely visit and support them!

Big Cat Rescue was one of the coolest things I've ever done. We did a private tour. Jeff, our tour guide, was friendly and knowledgeable. We didn't realize when booking just how close we would be to these majestic animals. We did an early tour shortly after they had been fed, and it was overcast and cool temps for this time of year, so the cats were awake and very interactive. One of the smaller cats even put his head through the fence to say good morning. While the stories of why the cats are there are sad and disturbing, we are grateful there are places like Big Cat Rescue to help them. We will definitely be doing this again.

We toured the facility while we were vacationing in Florida from Canada. We found the facility remarkable. The cats appeared content with their environment and demonstrated that the cats have enrichment, lots of exercise and free from stress!!! The volunteer guide was very informative and we both learned information about cats and "cat trade industry". We do not believe that anyone should own a wild animal and support the education program of this facility. Thank you to all the volunteers and staff, including the medical team, for the work that you do and your time dedication. It really shows in the standard of care you provide to these gorgeous cats!

What a wonderful experience. I’ve always loved big cats and to see and learn more about them was great. You can tell that everyone that volunteers there cares about these cats and their well being. I highly recommend taking the tour and supporting these big cats.

While their main focus is saving the animals, the tour is entertaining and incredible.

It was sad to hear how some of the big cat's lives began. I am so happy for the Big Cat Rescue providing such a sanctuary to all its residents. They even have a resort area for the big cats to enjoy. I want to go back for a night tour.

Thank you so much for the absolutely perfect tour Alyssa! Loved getting Zabu chuffs and seeing Hoover come out just for me. So wonderful how you all love and care for these amazing animals. Definitely coming back!

It’s a wonderful organization. A real eye opener to the animal injustices in the USA. Sharon was our keeper guide and she was great. The best gift shop anywhere.

Best accredited no-hands on sanctuary. Dedicated to ~70 rescued big & not so big cats. They also rehab bobcats, & work with the Humane society to assist with getting rescued domestic kittens ready for adoption. 100% of donations goes to care for rescued big cats.

I love Big Cat Rescue! They treat their residents with so much respect, and love them for who they are - wild cats. I can't say enough good things about them, they've saved so many lives over the years. Thank you for all you do, and sharing photos and videos of your residents with all of us. <3

Yesterday we visited the reserve for a tour. It was fantastic, beautiful cats are large with cages fitted, they seem to be happily living in this wonderful place among so many good people, very nice to everyone. Thanks for this wonderful tour, an eternal experience! :)

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and told us so much that we were unaware of. I really appreciate everything that y’all do and are raising awareness for. We had an amazing time seeing the big cats in their “retirement home”!! �

My son and I came on April 1st, 2018 for part of our Spring Break trip, we enjoyed our tour and I have some amazing pictures of the Big Cats. We would definitely come back!! Love how they had all the Crazy Cat Lady stuff in the store. I bought so much of it because I own my own domestic cat rescue. Thank you everyone there!!

What an amazing experience and education we gained during our tour on Tuesday (2.27). Existing on mostly volunteer interns, keepers, and staff, to say that the people at BCR are caring and compassionate is just a start. The dedication and devotion to the Cats, past, present, and future, while continually striving for legislative changes for all Big Cats, is beyond commendable.

Everyone who works here really does love and care for all the animals. They take in animals that have been neglected or injured and give them a happy fulfilled life. A must see and worth every penny for all animal lovers!

Big Cat Rescue is an amazing place and a safe haven for these animals who can longer live in the wild mostly due to the ignorance and cruelty of humans. Unlike many zoos, they have very large spaces in which to live and roam, programs to keep them stimulated, and a very clean environment. The staff are wonderful and I learned so much during the 1 1/2+ hour guided tour that we took. The ability to be so up close and personal with these cats was such a privilege even though, of course, I would prefer they could be in the wild where they belong.
