Description
Lions Tigers and Bears is a federally and state licensed rescue facility dedicated to providing a safe haven for unwanted and abused exotic cats. We are a NO KILL facility that allows cats in our care the opportunity to live out their lives with dignity in a caring and safe environment. Our goal is to provide a safe haven to rescued cats and to educate the public about the growing population of abandoned and unwanted exotic animals and where they come from. Our primary concerns are for the health and comfort of our cats and the safety of those who share these precious natural resources. We will protect and provide these animals with a lifetime home realizing that environment, exercise, and personal attention are key to their well being. Every attempt will be made to provide healthy diets, medical care, immunizations, and whatever else is necessary for the physical and psychological welfare of each animal in our care. In addition to our current family of cats, others in need of medical aid and rest are welcome to this facility, limited only by the extent to which we are able to provide adequate help, shelter, and safety. Our principal obligation is to our rescued cats, but we are concerned with the welfare of all captive big cats.
Sadly, in many areas of the United States, there are countless unwanted, abused, and abandoned big cats in captivity. In fact, the number of animals bred and born in captivity is greater than that in the wild. In most cases, cats born in captivity must endure horrific neglect and abuse due to the immense responsibility in their upkeep. In many states big cats, most commonly lions tigers, cougars and bobcats, are acquired by zoos and become surplus animals, are retired from entertainment, are purchased as pets when young, or are sold and bred for profit.
There are far too many stories of abuses suffered by captive cats. The most common is neglect and for this there should be no excuse. A large cat, be it bobcat, serval, leopard, lion, or tiger cannot be a pet. Even when weaned from birth, and diligently trained, a large cat is potentially dangerous. Unscrupulous breeders, and pet owners realizing their error in judgment, often try to convince a naïve customer or recipient that the animals' behavior will always be predictable, but this is never the case. It cannot be emphasized enough that there are too many captive bred animals and almost nowhere for them to be sheltered and cared for humanely until they die. Zoos cannot accept additional cats and facilities that provide a genuinely wholesome environment are nearly non-existent. All that remains for a misplaced cat is the unnatural environment of roadside zoos, canned hunt ranches, neglect and ultimately euthanasia. We vow to provide the cats we rescue with the most natural environment possible and to interact and care for them as if part of our family for the remainder of their lives. They will require our love, respect and care for many years.
