Big Cat Updates

SUMMARY:  Buy a turkey for a tiger, Happy update for Will Bobcat, Big Cat Times, Beautiful Sundari, Cecil and Beyond a case study, 50% off Tigers Eye bracelet, Joseph's nest cam, and more.

Joseph's Nest Cam is down:  The cable is dead again in the barn (phone line too). Gale is already on it with FIOS after we tested the lines to the building. The supply in is down. Hopefully it will be sorted soon but I expect it'll need a site visit from them to diagnose. We'll keep you posted on this issue. Regards, Keeper Michael Heap.

Keeper Afton's Coordinator Report for Wednesday, November 15th

The cats were fasted today for flea treatment tomorrow except for a select handful of them.

Since there was no feeding, cleaning was done early. During cleaning a group of interns and volunteers cut all of the pumpkins out of the enclosures and discarded them.

All but 3 lockouts in center were weeded.

Will Bobcat was having a really good day today!! We was bright eyed and active. He was a hungry boy and ate really well and took all of his meds with no problem.

 Big Cat Times

The Fall and Winter issues are now available online, FREE.

NOTE: Some of you went to get the free download last night and the system mistakenly charged you for shipping.  When we set up the free downloads we forgot to tick the box for the free shipping option, since it is a download there should be no shipping fee.  As soon as it was discovered, she promptly issued full refunds to the few people who were mistakenly charged a shipping fee.  Please accept our sincerest apologies for that embarassing oversight.

32 page full color magazine about the big cats at Big Cat Rescue and about big cat issues. Great Photos, too!
