Each year we are lucky enough to receive left over pumpkins from stores after halloween, pumpkins are a great source of enrichment for our cats, as well as a great source of entertainment for the staff and volunteers at Big Cat Rescue! All the cats love to play, eat and generally demolish the pumpkins, providing them with hours of entertainment, watch as we show you what they get up to when they are given one of their favourite treats, for tour times and more information please visit: http://www.bigcatrescue.org
All cats cough up furballs, from your domestic cat at home to an African Lion on the savannah. They do this to protect themselves as the furballs may also contain bone fragments from whole prey and can cause blockages in their digestive system. Watch as Zza Zza one of our Ocelots shows us how it is done! Big Cat Rescue is a sanctuary for exotic cats like Lions, Tigers, Leopards, Bobcats, Lynx, Servals and Ocelots, to find out more about our mission visit: http://www.bigcatrescue.org

In "Conservation or cruelty" we take a 6 minute look at places and individuals that breed and exhibit large felines, many in the name of conservation. In the US, unaccredited road side zoos, pseudo sanctuaries and personal exhibits across the country that house lions, tigers and leopards are breeding them in countless numbers to attract the public. We look at some that are open to the public and sadly probably rate around "average" of the facilities that we know of. You be the judge...is it conservation or cruelty? *BCR proudly supports real conservation efforts in The Snow Leopard Trust, Lewa Wildlife Conservancy and the Sumatran Tiger Trust to name a few. Even our own founder was fooled years ago into fake conservation; please don't let it happen to you. Log onto: www.bigcatrescue for more info.
Reaching Out- A Special Tour for our Veterans. -Since Big Cat Rescue only offers educational guided tours at select times 6 day a week, it allows our cats a sanctuary home as well as the comfort of doing special tours at times so that the guest can have the place to themselves. Tours allow us a chance to tell the plight of these big cats in captivity and in the wild. We recently did a free tour for a group of veterans from our local V.A. hospital. Since a number of our own members are former military it is always a meaningful experience. This video allows you to come along on that tour. We ask that no matter what your political views are, to please support your local veterans associations. http://www.va.gov/ *We want to thank Smokey Bones Restaurant of Citrus Park for providing them with a free lunch. Thank you, http://www.bigcatrescue.org
