🐾 Have you met Stephanie and Calypso? 🐅❤️

At Central Florida Animal Reserve, we take our responsibility to care for these magnificent animals very seriously. But that doesn’t mean we can’t laugh, have fun, and embrace the moments of pure joy they bring us!

Because sometimes, the best part of working with big cats is the little moments that make us smile. 🐾

Want to experience a little of that magic for yourself?

🥂 Join us for Cat Tales & Cocktails on November 14th! Come celebrate the incredible animals and dedicated people who make CFAR so special.

🎃🐅 Mirage decided to try her paw at pumpkin carving… but we think she got a little carried away! 😂

Who needs a carving kit when you’ve got claws and teeth? Let’s just say her pumpkin might not make it to Halloween! 🐾🧡 www.cflar.org

Our residents have been getting into the spirit with their own special “cocktails” through enrichment, and we think they’ve got the right idea! 🐾🍸

He’s a bit of a diva...

Every cat has a story, and we love telling them!

What’s in the bag? 👀🐾

A serval and some of his favorite scents! 😹 Prince had plenty of interesting smells to investigate, and apparently, the best way to explore them was from the inside out! 😂

Scent enrichment is a great way to stimulate our residents’ natural curiosity and encourage them to put their incredible senses to work! 🐾💛 www.cflar.org

Another birthday surprise for Balana! 🦁🎉

In celebration of her 13th birthday, Balana got to try out a fun new enrichment activity! We hid a chicken leg quarter inside this puzzle box and let her put those natural problem-solving skills to work figuring out how to get it out. 🧩🍗
