HAPPY Bagel Monday
from Bonnie Farago: I would really like to take a moment and acknowledge Pam Rodriguez. Every Monday without fail there are bagels and cream cheese waiting for us in the keeper cafe. Everyone gets so excited for bagel Monday! What a kind and generous offer to literally get EVERY Monday morning. So thank you, Pam. You are so sweet to provide breakfast to get through our busy Mondays.

Dutchess Tiger napping, checking out a noise, then back to napping. Here at Big Cat Rescue in Tampa, Florida, we do not believe in locking cats up in night houses. They really enjoy being outside too much for that.
We are in the midst of Kitten Season. Please spay and neuter your cats! When the kittens are 1.5 lbs the Humane Society of Tampa Bay takes them back, fixes them and adopts them out. The best time for cats to be adopted is while they are still cute kittens.

Photos of the Day
Good morning Big Cat Rescue Friends!☀️
Miss Kali Tigress says it’s a one paw out kind of Monday morning! ?
Have a great day everyone! ?

Kewlona Bobcat says, “I have trained my devoted keepers quite well and they don’t even realize it. They want to look me over head to toe every day, they call that ‘observation.’ If I hide they cannot do that. Therefore, if I pretend to hide, my wonderful human servants will go get me another cicle to lure me out of hiding. LOL, yep, I know how to get an extra cicle!”

Jinx, the black leopard, has some of the greatest facial expressions. This photo of this beautiful boy just begs for a caption. If this photo was going to be turned into meme how would you CAPTION THIS?

Armani has the most beautiful eyes. Are you waiting for someone else to make the calls of the wild? Guess what? They are probably not doing it because they assume you are doing it. In the meantime, the cats suffer in silence waiting for enough of you to step up and say, “You matter! I’ll make that call today.” BigCatAct.com

Keeper Mary Lou got a cute snapshot of Tiger Lilly Bobcat on top of the den so she could see further down the tour path. Tiger Lilly appears to be waiting for Keeper Marie Schoubert to arrive with afternoon cicles.

Zimba Serval LOVES his ferns. THANK YOU, Everyone, who set up Facebook Fundraisers for the cats during yesterday’s medical procedures for Frankie, Alpha, and Sapphire!! You do not have to wait for your birthday to set up a Facebook Fundraiser for your favorite cats at Big Cat Rescue. https://www.facebook.com/fund/bigcatrescue/

Good night Big Cat Rescue Friends! ?
Jasmine Tigress says it’s hard work being cute!
