My Nonprofit Reviews

I scanned a long list of reviews & 99.9% were 5 stars, one was 1 star. Sounds very impressive, right? But if you look deeper into this situation, what are the odds of that? I am very skeptical of this rating.
I will now bring it down to 99.8%.

I have been following the story of Cairo the Serval for many years. His photos right after he was rescued show no fear or aggression. Just a bewildered & innocent being. In spite of all he’d been through.

The photos & video of him after he was again made captive- tells a completely different story- he looks sad, angry, underweight. Even after being paired with Misha, he is snarling & hissing every time a human comes near him. Look closely at his body language- animals don’t lie. But, humans do.

Look closely at these videos- do these cats look well treated?

Constantly getting into these cats personal space to take all these videos constitutes an intrusion akin to contact, in a no-contact facility.


This is info from an educational source: https://ballardbrief.byu.edu/issue-briefs/mistreatment-of-wild-animals-in-captivity - “Many wild animals spend most of their day hunting or foraging for food, but in some captive facilities, food is just given to them, causing boredom and psychological distress because they are adapted to forage or hunt.”

Did you note the words distress & mistreatment in this paragraph?

“Hyper-aggression, however, indicates behavior that is more aggressive than what is normal for that species’ wild counterparts, and thus is an indication that their mistreatment and the stress of their captive situations has exacerbated their aggression.”

However, the person taking the video of Misha & Cairo snarling at the camera, described this as “cute.”

Did you know that the owners were at WildCat Haven previously, where their employee was in an enclosure by herself when she was killed?

Doesn’t look or sound at all like a sanctuary to me…
