Thunder

Male Jungle Cat

D.O.B. 9/13/98 – 10/12/04

Thunder arrived at Big Cat Rescue on 6/13/00 as an unwanted pet.  His former owner was assured that they could make a fortune breeding hybrid Chausies and have the pleasure of a perfect pet in this wild cat.  What they weren’t told is that all exotic cats spray and they spray buckets of urine all over everything and every one.

 

In memory of Thunder

“For Good”

Though we will never meet again in this lifetime
So much of me is made of what I learned from you
You’ll be with me like a handprint on my heart
And now, whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine by being my friend
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good…
