Cat Tales Wildlife Center is more than a typical zoo; we are a dedicated wildlife rescue shelter that provides forever homes for animals in need. As a sanctuary for non-releasable and exotic animals, we offer year-round opportunities for visitors to experience up-close views of incredible animals within a safe, professionally managed environment.
- Up-close experiences: See big cats and other rescued wildlife just 15 feet away in protected viewing areas.
- Year-round education: Learn about wildlife care, conservation, and the stories behind each rescued animal no matter the season.
- Safe, compassionate care: Our animals are provided with enriching habitats, nutritious diets, and exceptional veterinary care within our 4.5-acre facility.
- A mission-driven visit: Each visit supports our ongoing work in animal rescue, care, and public education about wildlife conservation.
Plan your visit today to experience a unique opportunity to see and learn about wildlife while helping support the animals who call Cat Tales their forever home.
