The core strategy of the campaign will focus on five key initiatives that offer every shelter, in every community, practical choices to reduce euthanasia and increase live outcomes for shelter cats. Dispensing with old paradigms that weren’t helping cats, hundreds of shelters from Gainesville to Alaska have already signed on to save one, hundreds, or even thousands of cats each year. Speaker: Julie Levy, Maddie’s Professor of Shelter Medicine, University of Florida Broader Perspective: Spotlight on Florida Moderator: Jeanette Peters, Grants Coordinator, Wagmore Foundation 9:30 – 9:45 AM Break 9:45 – 11:15 AM Wildlife in Crisis: Parrots, Captive and Free CENTURY BALLROOM Next to fish, parrots are the most numerous captive wildlife in this country. They are long-lived, and arguably have as rich or a richer emotional and mental life as some of the other captive species which have captured our hearts such as elephants, primates and whales. Though birds are the non-aquatic animals with the greatest freedom of movement and are clearly flock animals, most captive parrots sit alone in small cages in this country, stolen from their parents, sometimes even before hatching. Species are decimated in the wild. Bird mills and a horrific pet-trade abound, both involving the kinds of cruelty we have seen with other species. Yet, parrots have attracted very little national or funder attention.

  • OVERVIEW of Who Is Big Cat Rescue?
    Big Cat Rescue in Tampa Florida Who Is Big Cat Rescue 1 Table Of Contents Chapter 2 - Who Is Big Cat Rescue Chapter 3 - Non-Profit Ratings Chapter 4 - Award Winning Sanctuary Chapter 5 - Cable Television Segments Chapter 6 - Celebrity Supporters Chapter 7 - Area Business Affiliations Chapter 8 - How Big Cat Rescue Started Chapter 9 - The History & Evolution of Big Cat Rescue Chapter 10 - Cat Links 1 2 Who Is Big Cat Rescue OVERVIEW of Who is Big Cat Rescue? Big Cat Rescue is the largest accredited sanctu- ary in the world dedicated entirely to abused and abandoned big cats. We are home to over 100 lions, tigers, bobcats, cougars and other species most of whom have been abandoned, abused, orphaned, saved from being turned into fur coats, or retired from performing acts. Our dual mission is to provide the best home we can for the cats in our care and educate the pub- lic about the plight of these majestic animals, both in captivity and in the wild, to end abuse and avoid extinction. The sanctuary began in 1992 when the Founder, Carole Baskin, and her then husband Don, mistakenly believing that bobcats made good pets, went looking to buy some kit- tens. They inadvertently ended up at a “fur farm” and bought all 56 kittens to keep them from being turned into fur coats. See How We Started. In the early years, influenced by breeders and pet owners, they believed that the cats made suitable pets and that breeding and placing the cats in homes was a way to “pre- serve the species.” Gradually they saw increasing evidence that not only was this not the case, but that it was leading to a consistent pattern of suffering and abuse.

  • Support the Big Cat Public Safety
    Support the Big Cat Public Safety Act H.R. 263/S. 1210 Sponsors: Representatives Mike Quigley (D-IL) and Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA) Senators Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Susan Collins (R-ME), Tom Carper (D-DE), and Richard Burr (R-NC) WHAT THE BILL DOES The Big Cat Public Safety Act is a commonsense and urgently needed solution to the dangerous and cruel problems associated with private ownership of big cats and direct contact activities like cub petting. The wild animals used for petting and photo-taking encounters, and those imprisoned in basements or backyards as pets, not only suffer immensely, but also pose a serious risk to human safety. H.R. 263 amends the Captive Wildlife Safety Act to prohibit the private possession of lions, tigers, leopards, cheetahs, jaguars, cougars, or any hybrid of these species. This prohibition is narrowly focused on pet big cats and exempts zoos, sanctuaries, and universities. Current owners are grandfathered in and are simply required to register their animals to ensure that first responders and animal control officers are aware of the presence of such animals in their communities. H.R. 263 also restricts direct contact between the public and big cats. OVERVIEW OF THE PROBLEM • It is estimated that thousands of big cats are currently kept in captivity around the United States. Exact numbers are a mystery—nobody knows exactly how many dangerous big cats are being kept in private hands, or where they are. • A small number of unscrupulous facilities offer cub petting or photo opportunities, which fuels a vicious cycle of breeding and dumping cubs and is the primary cause of the growing population of captive big cats in the US.
