Walkabout 2019 Donations to 5 Conservation Projects

The 2019 Wildcat Walkabout was a HUGE success as we raised more funds for five conservations projects to save big cats in the wild! Because of all of you awesome people and your help at the Walkabout, we raised over $40,000 to donate to the 5 conservation projects, from admissions, donations, the raffle, and paw castings. Thank you!!! The five species benefiting from this are:

Florida Panther
Jaguar
Snow Leopard
Margay
Cheetah

Big shout out to Erin Carden, Rebecca Williams, Lynda Licht, Carolyn Thompson, Lauren Grant & their guests, for all their efforts learning and talking to guests about the projects ?

Kristine’s Bobcat Rehab Overnight Report

MALACHITE, ASH and CINDER – During the afternoon, Ash lounged and napped in the left front section, on the grass by the pipe. He stayed there for quite a while, just enjoying the afternoon breezes and cat naps. Cinder lounged and napped on the tall platform all afternoon. She would wake up every so often and look around, then go back to napping.

Later Ash woke up and watched a squirrel walk by, then he wandered around checking things out. He got up on the swinging shelf to lounge for a bit, then as it started to get dark he went into the middle section for a short time, then he came back into the left front side and curled up on the grass to bathe and then take another long nap. He woke up a few times and looked around then would go right back to napping.

Earlier there was a rain shower and Cinder jumped down off of the platform and disappeared to somewhere dry. I didn’t see her for a long time after that. Ash just continued to lounge and nap there on the grass, he didn’t seem to mind the rain shower at all.

Later overnight, Ash found a rat running around and he caught it, played with it and then had dinner, lol. He went and looked in the opening of the pipe to see if there was anything in there and then he went back to his place on the grass to curl up and lounge, then nap some more.

Cinder reappeared by the tall platform wandering around in the grass and then she went under the platform and sat looking around for a bit, then she disappeared again. Ash woke up for a short time and wandered around, then he went back to the grassy place to nap some more.

Later he woke up and was full of energy. He wandered around the front and first half of the middle section, sometimes stopping to sit on the Coolaroo and look over towards Malachite’s enclosure or towards the woods, just watching things going on. Then he got up on the den and sat there watching out across the area, he also got up on the swinging shelf for a minute, then was back down roaming around.

As I write this, Ash is lounging on the swinging shelf watching things and Cinder is walking back and forth along the fence in the back section. They are so precious!!! 🙂

I wish all of you a wonderful Friday!
Warm wishes, Kristine Metzner
