A purrsonal tribute to Steve Jobs from all the cool “cats” at Big Cat Rescue

Big Cat AppFor the big cat loving man who brought you Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard and Lion operating systems.

Because of all the graphics and desktop publishing that we do at Big Cat Rescue we have been Mac users for many, many years, dating back to the original G5 tower. In 2009 when our record keeping system was all being translated into digital records that we could share and store in Google Education Apps we switched our phones over to iPhones. This way our vet, staff and key keepers could access every record for every animal just by touching the screen on their phones.

From there we moved in 2010 to using iPads after 6 of them were donated to us at the Fur Ball. Now, with access to the Cloud and all of the great apps and features that were the brain child of this remarkable man and his team we are able to provide the best animal care possible.

We are able to document that care to share with each other and with you. Most of the photos that you see in the series Today at Big Cat Rescue were shot with iPhones. We were able to use the platforms he built to launch the Big Cat App. Most of the videos that you see on our pages were edited in iMovie. Many of our millions of viewers have been through iTunes. Big Cat Rescue has been so amazed by the brilliance of the Apple creator and team that we have even invested in their stock. The world has lost an unparalleled innovator in Steve Jobs and he will be missed.
