The Secret

This site is copy right protected

Florida law requires that all charities soliciting donations disclose their registration number and the percentage of your donation that goes to the cause and the amount that goes to the solicitor. Our registration number is CH-11409 and non-program expenses are funded from tour income, so 100% of your donations go directly to save the cats. We are a 501 c 3 charity as determined by the IRS Federal ID#59-3330495. Our 990s are available online at GuideStar.org with a complete breakdown of how your donations are spent.

In addition to the tours listed above we often have special tours and events.  Click HERE for more exciting ways to meet the big cats.

In Florida, weather is always an issue.  In the summer it rains frequently, but often only for a few minutes.  If you have paid for a tour and get rained out during your tour, we will give you a free pass to come back.  Because the cats are spooked by umbrellas, they are not allowed but you should bring a rain coat or poncho if it looks like rain.  Tours will be canceled during lightening storms.  Paths are frequently muddy so closed toed, old, comfortable shoes are recommended. You may bring your own cold drinks or buy ours but either way, be prepared for the heat.  Ask for the free us of a golf cart if an hour and a half outside isn't something you think you can do. 

You are welcome to take photos and video on the tour, but leave the tripods at home, or schedule a photo tour. We ask everyone on the tour to stay together, no smoking, no cell phones and respect the tour guides warnings so that you have the best possible experience. 

If you are traveling with pets, you cannot bring them onto the property.  Florida law (and common sense) prohibit you from leaving them in your car, even with the A/C running.

For info on school and civic group field trips and out- reach presentations see our page called Education."It's one thing to go to Busch Gardens, it's another to stand three feet from a tiger!" says Cameron Baskin about Big Cat Rescue.

Children must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian and must behave respectfully toward the animals and others in the group.  This is not a zoo where children will be allowed to scream and run wild, but a sanctuary where the animal's needs always come first.
