We welcomed another caracal and 3 servals at our sanctuary. All the way from Belgium.
Lots of servals (and the occasional caracal) are kept as (illegal) pets or for breeding. Many seem to end up in the streets (escape?), or they are confiscated. Very few times the owner gives up on them, finally realizing they don’t make good pets.
After a very long journey from Brussels to Johannesburg, Lalana (caracal), Jill, Abel & Apollo (servals) finally arrived at our sanctuary. They seem to settle in well already; looking relaxed and they immediately started exploring their forever safe home
Thank you:
- FlyFauna (Jimmy Celis) for the good care, safely delivering them at Brussels Airport.
- Qatar Airways for a good and safe flight and care on board.
- Pride of Africa Wildlife, Michael Falls, for handling their arrival with paperwork and Veterinary check by state vet
- Natuurcentrum Opglabbeek for the temporary housing of these cats and arranging the best safe permanent home again.
In 2023 we already welcomed the three servals Stica, Wonny & Gent Earlier this year, servals Dutchy & Dilly arrived to have a wonderful forever life at our sanctuary Working on another four coming in a few weeks time!!
