Our Cats & Their Stories

Kalahari Lion

Kalahari 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. Kalahari is a very sweet lion girl who is loving life at the rescue center. She is very affectionate and can often be seen rolling on top of her den box or pulling all the bedding out of it.
