Big Move for Cheetah Experience!!

In our last update, we informed you that we were busy building an enclosure for Blaze and Shailoh, our rescue mountain lion and leopard. We are proud to announce that we have finished the construction and were able to move Blaze and Shailoh into their forever home. Blaze immediately went to explore and had the best time sniffing around. Shailoh had less confidence and hid for the first couple of days as the big enclosure was very overwhelming to her. After a week, both of them gained a lot of confidence and were finally completely comfortable in their new camp. After spending the first 7 years of their lives in a 100 square enclosure, Blaze and Shailoh barely know what to do with all the space they have in their 3000 square meter enclosure.

More good news from our side is that our caracals Maxy and Sasha also moved into their newly built enclosure. Maxy was living in someone's house as a pet before he was surrendered to Cheetah Experience as he got too big and too destructive to live in the house. Sasha was rejected by her mum and therefore rescued by us. She was initally living with a serval she grew up with but their friendship unfortunately broke down. Maxy and Sasha were introduced to eachother and immediately got along really well. They lived in a temporary enclosure for a while until we finally finished their new home. When we moved them, they were full of confidence and didn't hesitate to go and meet their new neighbours. They have settled in completely now and are loving their enclosure every day.

We also have some good news regarding our tiger Fushan. After months and months of struggling to fill up his pool, we finally managed to install a new system which now allows us to fill up Fushan's pool straight from our tanks, which means that we don't have to get water delivered in a truck anymore. Fushan loves his pool and spends hours and hours sitting in the water looking at everything that's going on around him. 

Since our move, we have been very busy with building new connections in the area but this is unfortunately a long process. Because our name isn't fully out there yet, our meat supply is rather limited. This means that we have to purchase meat and prices in Limpopo are through the roof. Your donations have helped us to buy food for the animals and once again, we can't thank you enough. 

All of this wouldn't have been possible without your help so from the entire team at Cheetah Experience, we would like to say a big thank you to everyone who donated. No words can describe how grateful we are for your help.
