Big Cat Country

We live in Big Cat country - Jacksonville is home of the Jaguars but also home of Catty Shack Ranch Wildlife Sanctuary.  It's up on the northside not far from the airport.  Here they house over 40 animals including tigers, lions, mountain lions/cougars/pumas/panthers, bob cats, foxes, and coatimundis. 

Andy LOVES tigers so we decided to head to Catty Shack for a special date night.  We went for a night time feeding.  It was so awesome to see these big cats.  They got playful, they got vocal and were so much fun to watch!  




They had a few white tigers too!

The mountain lions/cougars/panthers/pumas - all the same animal

These big cats love their pools!

These two knew dinner was coming and were getting vocal.

We had so much fun seeing all the big cats.  Andy really enjoyed it and wants to go back again.  Night time feedings are so much fun because you get to see them active!
