Our Cats & Their Stories
Kaya Cougar
Kaya arrived in 2019 from a facility in California called Wildlife Waystation. Their Board of Directors had voted to surrender the facility’s California Department of Fish and Wildlife permit voluntarily and to close the facility. The facility had suffered through two wildfires and a flood. Overall, we rehomed 15 cats from Wildlife Waystation. Four pumas, six tigers, and five lions were brought to the rescue center over two trips coordinated by the foundation Tigers in America and a fellow rescue, In-Sync Exotics out of Wylie, TX. Kaya was born at Wildlife Waystation after her mother was rescued. She is the shyest of the three cougar girls and is usually the last to shift for food. Although she is shy, she is still talkative like her mom.
