The Big Cat Sanctuary was founded in 2000 and is a UK registered conservation charity which is home to over 50 wild cats. A 32 acre site hidden in the peaceful Kent countryside began by default as a refuge for rescued cats. Now recognised as a centre of excellence and one of Europe's biggest wild cat centres making global partnership and supporting conservation initiatives. Our cat collection spans over 15 different species from the world's largest to the smallest, also including Tigers, Lions, Leopards, Jaguars, Snow Leopards, Pumas, Cheetahs, and Pallas Cats. The organisation has four pillars of ethos which are welfare, breeding, conservation, and education. It is by working with these objectives in place we are securing a future for both big and small cats by conserving and restoring the balance of the ecosystem in which predators play such a vital role. We are helping to create a future for some of the planet's most endangered and iconic species. The breeding centre is proud to be part of the EEP (European Endangered Species Breeding Programme). This body regulates the captive breeding of endangered cats by making recommendations for breeding to produce a strong, healthy and diverse gene-pool within the captive population. The ultimate aim being that they be reintroduced safely into their natural habitat globally, to mix with their counterparts in the wild.
