Cheetah Experience Volunteers Needed

To all who have considered volunteering,

Cheetah Experience  is in need of volunteer support.....so please, please consider what is a once in a lifetime experience working face to face with some seriously big wild cats!!

My volunteer time with Riana and her permanent helpers was amazing, along with all the newbies that turn up on a regular basis. It feels like you belong to a family, especially if you're able to stay for at least 3 weeks or more - why not make it a month or two!! The accommodation is great - a home away from home sharing with other like minded people.



You don't even need to pay a third party all those fees - contact them direct, and get on board with an experience that could change your life forever!!!

Check out my previous blogs for my weeks at Cheetah Experience.....if you still need some persuasion!

Kitana, the Serval and her babies at Cheetah Experience

Another wild cat baby celebration for Cheetah Experience which is being kept a close eye on....




Kitana, a Serval with 3 legs due to an accident, has given birth to two beautiful kittens after 73 days of waiting!!


Because Kitana didn't produce sufficient milk with her first two litters she is being monitored hourly to ensure these two beautiful babies are suckling and surviving!!

Cleopatra - R.I.P @ Cheetah Experience

Sadly little Cleopatra has passed away from an infection. The Cheetah Experience team kept her alive, safe and warm for 3 weeks and she fought bravely to get this far....


What an amazing job Cheetah Experience and the volunteers do for these wonderful cats. Cleo wouldn't have had any chance of survival in the wild but she had 3 weeks of love and hope with the team.


There love has no bounds - even to the point of adopting a little domestic cat (now named Kitty) who turned up on the doorstep of the  Cheetah Experience  volunteer house. Read all about it in the Cheetah Diaries by clicking on the following link:  Cheetah Diary - Kitty's arrival  


And just like the 'recessive genes' some of the lions and leopards carry at Cheetah Experience which produce white lions or black leopards - Kitty has had a pure white kitten, along with a pure black kitten and three 'split' kittens....  :-)

Cleopatra - 4 Days Old


Baby Cleopatra is battling to fight the odds and doing fantastic - she's absolutely adorable!!

She is still at risk of a lung infection, but with the necessary care every day, the chances of her survival increase!


Her gorgeous tear drop markings round her little nose as she sleeps after a feed.






She loves her feeds.....

And is so courageous and determined to live.


The medical care required still comes at a cost to Cheetah Experience which is a 'Not for Profit Organisation', so please check out the Cheetah Experience website or their facebook page to get involved with this fantastic group of people:
