Exotic Feline Rescue Center
The first steps into the area filled me with awe and wonder. Many of the wild cats could tell a story just by how they looked. There's even a blind snow tiger there. This center was created in 1991 with just three wild cats and now it has turned into over 100. The cats are from 10 different breeds as well.
