Hand-feed Shere Khan, the 800-pound tiger, or take great photos of your favorite cats with nary a fence to ruin the snapshot. Fall asleep in your cabin listening to the sounds of the big felines. Occupying 40 acres, this non-profit center has the largest collection of exotic cats to be found in the world. More than 140 neglected, abused and unwanted big cats call this sanctuary and rehabilitation center home. All proceeds go directly to enhancing the habitats of these magnificent animals.
