We just returned from the Tampa,Fla area. On our last day, we went to "Wildlife on Easy Street" for the day & night. It is the most wonderful "big cat" refuge I have ever seen.All the cats there have been abused, outgrown, abandoned, injured or just unwanted. It is a non-profit refuge that lets the cats live out their lives in a totally natural environment. You can be 12 inches away from Bengals, Lions, Panthers, Cougars, Lynx, Bobcats, Servals, and many more. Also in 4 areas are 2 bobcats, 2 lynx and 1 serval that you can sit with, pet and hold! The donation they ask for is $20 for a 2 1/2 hr tour and till the end of the yr, $100/night to stay in one of the cabins that the tame cats are attached to. Next yr they said the price will prob be $150-200/nite. But it is so worth it & much more! The trip of a lifetime. If you'd like more info go to www.wildlifeoneasystreet.com (http://www.wildlifeoneasystreet.com) - & if you're ever in the area - you HAVE to see it!
