WONDERFUL
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/29/09
I planned a field trip with 10 other children about a month in advance and the young lady helping me was amazing. She gave me all the proper information and answered my 101 questions! Once we got to the Big Cat Rescue the staff that greeted us was very nice and talked to the children as if they were young adults. The tour was something I will never forget and the children couldn't stop talking about it for weeks. I plan on going back and HIGHLY RECCOMMEND the Big Cat Rescue to anyone. It is an experience that you can only receive there.
 
 
 
 
 
We will never go back

The staff was very unfriendly. There was an issue with the staff that came up with my husband and I and you could tell the staff had an attitude with us. The staff would not wait for us leaving us behind during the entire tour. We will never ever go back.

Fabulous Felines
By justine, 12/29/08
If you have a passion for cats, big and small, you will love the Big Cat Rescue. The guide was informative and it added to the tour to know the background of the cats at the rescue and different aspects of them. I was pleased that you could get a very close look at the cats - they seemed to like the attention. It was worth my time and money to visit. I am grateful that rescues like this exist and appreciate the hard work involved. I would recommend a visit to see these beautiful animals.

I would never go back
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/12/08
The place was very dirty and muddy. The staff was not very friendly and there was lots of insects.

Big Cat Rescue
By Nature Coast Travel, 09/28/06
At some point Wildlife on Easy Street became the Big Cat Rescue and it is a wonderful place. Truly amazing to be within 3 feet of a tiger or lion. Unbelievable what you learn and how beautiful these big cats are. My husband and I have been here several times and will go back again.

Amazing
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/11/06
I loved this place. Most of the cats were up and awake. I got to be very close to the cats. The guides told wonderful background stories of where the cats came from and why. It's an unforgettable experience.
