    Even though you guys are probably doing a good thing and you treat the cats with respect, I still feel sad to see such amazing animals caged up, and it makes me cringe to see you operate on them! (And no it’s not that? I am woosy at the sight of blood or doctors cutting through skin. I’ve watched human surgeries before) :-)

    You’re right we wish a place like BCR didn’t have to exist but unfortunately the laws regarding private ownership of these cats are? not strict enough. Our ultimate goal is to get these laws changed so no more cats have to suffer!

    The FACT is anywhere you can hold or have your photo taken with cubs is a place breeding tigers/lions etc.. for profit. What happens to these cubs when they get to big? and become too expensive to feed??? True sanctuaries do not breed, there are far too many big cats out there that need a place to live :)

    Zabu the white tiger and liger have my most sympathy among all the big cats at Big CAt Rescue. For one thing the reason why they exist because we want them to. Human created them. Second, either white tiger or liger probably won’t live much longer due to their? genre complication. I can feel that they are very lonely. For Zabu, perfhaps her tiger peers won’t like to hang out with her due to her colour; For the liger, she also won’t be accepted by either lions or tigers.

    It’s especially? good that they spay a white (inbred) tiger if they were planning on keeping her with a male lion( though i assumed he was fixed already anyways). The only reason I would argue with a sanctuary for spaying or nuetering an animal is if it was a member of an endangered species. I dont think they would be fixing florida panthers and snow leopards and clouded leopards though i doubt those cats end up in many sanctuaries

    It´s great that BCR spays and neuters their animals. Sanctuaries should never breed or buy when there are so many animals waiting to be placed in a sanctuary.Nice job! It´s even better? because Zabu is a white tiger. Now, no matter what ever happens, Zabu will never be able to be exploited or part of a scheme to get more white tigers, which often suffer from horrible deformities and birth defects.

    Do you spay and neuter all of the cats? Or just the ones like white tigers, to prevent more genetic defects??
