“Way back at the very far end of our sanctuary lived two of, what I
thought were, the scariest caracals. Cachinga and Cachanga taught me,
very early in my volunteer days at Big Cat Rescue, to respect the ferocity
of these small wild cats. It never failed that, whenever I was cleaning
their cat-a-tat, they would hiss and spit and swat at a moment’s notice. But,
they truly seemed to love each other’s company – just not mine! I’d
always find them laying together, very protective of one another. I know
it has been very sad for Cachanga, now that Cachinga is gone. How painful
to lose a companion that shares your days and the only one who can truly understand
the life you’ve been forced to live. I’m happy to hear that
Cachanga will now be living with Rose, one of the most social and well-liked
caracals at Big Cat Rescue. Hopefully, Cachanga will be able to share many
more happy days with Rose now by his side”……Julie, Senior
