Picked up another potential sponsor & more entrants Adding Monkey Jungle in Homestead to the list of stops
I know I am a newbie but I think another great organization to look into is The Cat Network http://www.thecatnetwork.org/ dedicated to reducing the overpopulation of stray and feral cats in South Florida through the humane practice of sterilization, vaccination, and release. They do a lot of work... Let me know if there is anything I can do to help. I am member of a local car club called Speed Style and Performance and we are pretty active in the south florida area. We would be interested in attending/participating in a car show/cruise for this cause.
I'd be interested in doing it and I'm sure I have a handful of other friends who would be interested in the rally as well. Animal Rally is definitely a great idea!
Paulie_b, I too did a double take when I read you had a tiger cub. Please, we want as much detail as possible! What happened on the safari in India? I am presuming the mother was killed? Do you know the circumstances? Where in India was this? And, how did you get the tiger into the US? Isn't that just a bit difficult? Isn't the tiger a protected species? How were you able to get it out of India? What was it like having the cub? Did it bond with you? At six months old, was it too rambunctious? What did it get up to? I don't want to hijack the thread, but I am *insanely* interested. Could you please start a new thread and post detailed answers to my questions, and also post as many pics as possible? I know of at least two other fchatters with big cats as pets...perhaps they will chime in as well. I have only petted cubs and one teenager in preserves and on safaris, and of course when I visit the friends who have them as pets. Not something I want to encourage, but it does happen, and I just LOVE animals. So...please, start the thread and tell us your stories. Many thanks in advance!
William H, thanks for organizing this. Wonderful idea, and I wish you luck in pulling off a successful event that raises funds for such a worthy cause. Thank you.
