Big Cat Updates

Pharaoh and Kewlona

Pharaoh Serval was sedated for an exam today. He has been limping. There was nothing abnormal on his X-rays. His blood work was average for a cat his age (17). He had one bad canine and one molar removed. He will be on a soft food diet for 2 weeks. Please check his med chart for medications.

Kewlona Bobcat was spayed today. She will spend 7-10 days recovering in the cat hospital.

Smalls Bobcat has been moved back out to her enclosure. She has refused to eat in the cat hospital so we are putting her outside early.

 

Susann Mesna Shares Dragonfly Conversing w/ Tiger

Today I was standing outside the Windsong Memorial Cat Hospital, conversing with two dragonflies.  Jamie walked out and said she’s been watching me from the window, because she didn’t want to interrupt me, if I was on the phone.  When she realized I was just talking to dragonflies again, she decided she could interrupt the conversation.

Predators Unlimited Update

Jeremy Possman and his wife founded Predators Unlimited, possibly because they decided that the real money is in tigers and lions instead of alligators. The “sanctuary”/ business is run from the Possman’s backyard, where a menagerie of exotics, including tigers, lions, leopards, bobcats, wolves, primates, and even a Florida Panther live in ramshackle cages.
