where they are provided with the opportunity to learn more about the endangered
wild cats of South Africa. The primary aim of the centre is to establish a
wildlife awareness and education centre, as well as creating work opportunities
for the local community.
At the centre they work with various orphaned or injured cats in need of
rehabilitation and care, which include wild Cheetahs, Serval Cats, African
Wildcats and Caracal also known as Lynx. They also intend to breed where
possible and release the offspring back into their natural habitat. Visitors are
encourage to stop by for a visit, and witness the playfulness of the Servals,
the sheer speed and agility of the majestic cheetahs, and the outstanding beauty
of the Lynx.
