Big Cat Music

Big Cat Rescue's Theme Song is Beautiful, Wild and Free   Click to play or Buy CD HERE

©(P) 2008  Terez/Rock My Spirit! (T.T.R. Hartmann) 
Inspired by Big Cat Rescue, dedicated to all that is beautiful, wild, and free on Mother Earth

You see them in the jungles, in the forests, on the plains
And you can feel their spirits on every terrain
They share their primal wisdom for all who wish to hear
And their message is perfectly clear

Chorus:
Beautiful, wild, and free
What all life can be
And I still believe
In living beautiful, wild, and free

They fill so many pages in the story of our lives
In symbols and in legends and they still survive
And to be in their presence can bring you to your knees
For in their endless eyes you see

Repeat Chorus

They've come from all over to gather in this place
To teach us how to live and see some brighter days
And I am humbled to pay homage, and even lend a hand
For they are a reminder that will still can, we still can be

Repeat Chorus

Oh, beautiful, wild, and free
What life is meant to be
And just like them I see
We're all beautiful, wild, and free...

bell the cat - a daring action

Bell The CatThis story is about women who get together to save their village from two tigers who were hanging out a little too close for comfort.


The tigers circled their homes each evening roaring out songs of hunger. Even though the villagers feared the tigers they honored them as well. The women believed there was a way to remedy their problem of the lingering tigers without violence or harm to the tigers or the people.


After much thought, one early morning, two women volunteers slipped away into the forest to find the tigers. The women had watched the tigers for a while to know what their habits were, their territory and where they rested. So, after a short time on their trail they found the two tigers napping, in the speckled sunlight through the trees, beside a stream. The women of the village had previously gathered to make very special necklaces with bells attached. This way the village could hear the tigers when they approached. After a long search the volunteers found the tigers napping. Each woman, ever so cautiously and quitely walked, with the same silence of the tigers at night, over to the large cats, and each placed the bell necklace she held around the necks of the tigers. They made sure not to let the bell ring as they placed the necklace around their large furry necks. Then slowly the women backed off disappearing into the forest.


Every day after that people of the village gathered to contribute a small amount of food to the tigers and left it in a space they blessed and recognized as sacred. From that evening on the two women were honored for their bravery and wisdom of this daring act to bell the cats.


bell the cat is like these two women;  we believe that there is always a better way to work out situations through communication and working together as we all share this planet Earth. We've got to stop violence, hate, prejudist, hunger and war. It takes a daring action on the part of each one of us to stand up and say no more and to give of ourselves to make a change. We must place that bell of compassion around the world and make it a safe place for all who live here.
