Story

The Big Cat Sanctuary is raising money the support our brand-new Snow leopard cubs.

Over the past few months, Keeper Simon Jackaman and The Big Cat Sanctuary team accomplished an extraordinary feat by successfully teaching Laila, a female Snow leopard, to willingly undergo an ultrasound examination with our veterinarian, Valerie Freeman. This breakthrough revealed that Laila was pregnant, enabling the keeping team to begin preparations for her impending birth. This remarkable achievement highlighted the deep bond and trust between Laila and Simon who is her primary trainer, and helped the team prepare for this new chapter in Laila's life.

On the 1st of July Laila successfully gave birth to two beautiful cubs, a boy and a girl who are named, "Spot" and "Stripe" as the female has a long stripe running down her back. There will be a naming competition running in the next few months.

The Big Cat Sanctuary is fundraising to support our young cubs, where donations will go towards their daily care, fresh bedding, veterinary costs, food for Laila and to support conservation with our end-of-year donations to our partners on the front-line.

Please give generously, thank you.
