Why I'm I complaining to this organization? Because I heard too many lies, and too many breaking news about this place. I have supported this place for one year, and all the money I spent donating was a scam!
I spent $5 on a contest, and I was never mentioned. I just wasted time getting a photo and I was never talked about... I just got a free ticket in the mail, and that was it. I even did the text to tiger and save 2 ligers, and all I get was a useless bracelet that is hard to read. That was a waste of minutes on my cell phone.
The owner and staff never wants to respond to most of your questions, and they make excuses when I call them.
Like I wanted to get in contact with someone, and they give an excuse, and they say try emailing them. Plus they never want to stay out of other peoples business.
The owner Carole Baskin (FKA: Carole Lewis), sent threatening, mean letters to other cat owners, and she never knows what she's talking about most of the time.
They actually had a so called "Miss Florida Pageant" at the organization, where the girls that were in the pageant got to go for free. I find that really dumb.
The other news, is that they do not take in sick, or hurt animals... That is all a lie! They only take in (Buy) healthy animals, and then they say their "so called sick".
BigCatRescue claims that Savanna cats are wild, and not pets. ATTENTION: These cats do not count as wild. They do have fur that's like a wild cat, but they do the same things as a house cat would do.

I understood these people were a rescue organization for large cats like lions, tigers, lynx, etc.
I did not understand this complaint posting.
If someone could tell me the exact nature of the complaint and why they were making it, I would appreciate it.

More lies!

The organization has also been hosting several contests, and all they're doing is just trying to get more money.
Like turn $10 into $10,000, which is just another trick to get money.
They also had a contest on Care2.com to get $10,000.
Carole Baskin (Lewis) never rarely visits the organization, and she is just a money w***e. She doesn't care about the organization, or the animals.
They even fought to get a tiger that was at a truck stop in Louisiana. They sent out newsletters, and posted links and stories on the site, and posted petitions. They don't stop till they get that tiger.
Plus, to make this short, she's just a hypocrite.
She complains about other cat owners buying animals, breeding them, etc.
When she does some of that.
Also from what I hear, they didn't really tell the truth about their "first tiger" at their organization.
