But, no. Don't go for the belly rub. I have a kitty that will roll over in the throws of a good rubdown, but touch the belly......lose a hand.

She will lie on her back and make "happy paws" in mid air enjoying having her belly rubbed for as long as you are willing to do it. Calico cats are not supposed to be so affectionate, but she seems to have been absent from calico cat school the day that lesson was held.

Idiots who wanted a big cat for a house pet. I say make them hang around in a cage for a while as someone's pet.

and the purr gets louder and louder. Then at the end, time for a cat nap.

Do big cats like cat nip, or is that only for the smaller felines?

smaller cats and all the other cats.
The big ones are just simply magnificent beasts.
Thank you for posting this.

They rehab injured, old or unwanted big cats and a few other animals. They've got some taken away from homes by wildlife officers, and some that came from zoos. It's a really cool place and great idea, though I wish they had larger confinement areas. They have 8 vets that treat the animals. One is undergoing stem cell therapy right now. They also have come up with ideal housing and some of the areas have those. If anyone wants to support a good cause, they could send some money so they can purchase more of these ideal environments and enlarge those.
