Thank you for your kind words. Our daughters helped as they were growing up, but they are grown and have careers, families, and lives of their own now.

Is it just you and your husband run the sanctuary together or do your children help as well. Trying to find family run sanctuaries to interview!

Found you on internet. My husband and I would like to volunteer. Have no experience with wild animals but we have both worked with domestic cats dogs and horses. Would love to learn how to care for your animals

I follow two other sanctuaries that do the same thing you do. One of those is the Big Cat Sanctuary there in Tampa. I’ve become so attached to those 2 facilities that when I read a new story now it brings tears to me. I’m a student of the Jehovah Witnesses and plan to be baptized next year. I have one issue that I need to deal with before that can be done. But, because of my bible beliefs I know that there will be wild animals and exotic cats on the new earth, Isaish 65:17 – 25. Also, Isaiah 11:1 – 10 tells of the animals. My point being that even though I know this is going to happen the stories of these animals have started affecting me. I am now starting to have tears come to me when I’m reading them whether they are good or bad stories of these animals. All I can do is continue to love what all of the accredited sanctuaries are doing and be thankful that all of you and the volunteers are there to love and care for the animals. I can say thank you, but, that never seems to be enough. I am on a very limited income so I’m not able to donate in anyway so thank you is all I have. I love each and every one of you for everything you do for these animals.
