Keeper Afton: Thank you “Zabu” for brightening my day!

I can’t help but to feel a strong connection and tie to this beautiful girl since this weekend. It’s like I became her guardian angel that day all because I reacted to a gut feeling I had.❤️🐯She is doing really good. We have her on antibiotics as a precaution.

Dr. Justin: Seth the tiger after some work by the Peter Emily Foundation.

Keeper Brittany Mira: Just a little flash back Friday video of baby Nabisco the day after he arrived at BCR 😻 He is one of my operant cats and I’m so proud of how far he has come. Such a silly boy ❤️ excited to see him tomorrow
