Hello! This post will have more pics than words. Here’s a recap of my weekend. A co-worker Hao and his wife Li who are based out of Jacksonville spent the weekend with Amir and I. We went to Big Cat Habitat located here in Sarasota, FL, ate some Vietnamese food at Pho Cali and had Li’s favorite dessert…. frozen yoghurt at Whiteberry (yup just like Pinkberry).
Enjoy the photo’s. At the end don’t forget to check out a video that I created on Zingfu the White Tiger and another video I found from youtube that brings awareness to White Tiger breeders.
Note: All exotic animals in the sanctuary have been rescued from abusive owners and owners who can no longer take care of them. They were all purchased as pets.

A Liger in the sanctuary:

Bear kissing his caretaker:


Florida Panther….look at those eyes. What a beautiful creature:

Amazing pics of the goats playing…or fighting. I’ve never seen this in person before only on Planet Earth

Eli the baby chimp…. he’s so cute:

Dinner at Pho Cali:

Hahahah….these two love spicy food. I think they made their soup too spicy:

Desert at Whiteberry….I love their Green Tea Frozen Yogurt:

If you have time please watch the video’s below. I created the first video, “Meet Zingfu”…. he was rescued from an abusive owner. He’s such a beautiful creature. I learned so much about Big Cat abuse, cruelty and breeding from this non-profit organization. It’s so wonderful to see that these animals are now being loved and taken care of.
I’m not an activist. Just an ordinary person that was exposed to this yesterday. If you are interested to learn more I encourage you to visit Big Cat Rescue’s website and read this article HERE

What a great post! Tigers are my sons favorite, so thank you for posting this for him to see and be a learning experience for him! I never knew that about white tigers and that one picture, looked terrible! It looked like a pug tiger, weird! And I thought Ligers were only in Napolian Dynamite!
Really, I’m serious!
Thanks for the awareness!
