Our Mission
Shizzy's Wildcat Rescue is dedicated to ending the abuse faced by exotic and domestic animals in captivity and in the wild through rescue, legislation and education.
We are located on 56 acres in Fair Bluff, North Carolina. The registered 501(c)3 nonprofit was founded in January of 2013 by Shazir Haque.
why donate to us
Shizzy's Wildcat Rescue 501(c)3 relies 100% on donations. We use money to raise awareness about our cause and the threats that exotic and endangered animals face. We plan fundraisers with the funds we receive and make our donations into more money to grow our non profit.
With your help, we can rescue hundreds animals in the United States from many different situations such as circuses, private pet ownership, roadside zoos, entertainment industries, pay to pet animals, photo prop animals, and any other form of abused animals.
who we help
TIGERS
Tigers are the biggest wildcats and the Siberian tiger can weigh up to 700 pounds. They are poached, hunted, made into fur coats, sold for their body parts, used in traditional Chinese medicines, etc. There are less than 4,000 tigers left in the wild. Tigers are expected to go extinct within the next 20 years. Shizzy's Wildcat Rescue wants to change that.
LIONS
Lions are the second biggest wildcat in the world. There are estimated to be around 20,000 lions left in the wild. Lions are facing many threats including over hunting, lack of prey because of over hunting on their prey, loss of habitat and poaching. Lions are either resting or sleeping for about 20 hours a day on average and are the laziest of the big cats.
JAGUARS
The jaguar is the third biggest cat on Earth. Jaguars have a golden coat with black rosettes on their body. These rosettes have small black dots within them. This is the main difference in appearance between a jaguar and a leopard. The jaguar has the strongest bite of all the wildcats. The jaguar also has the second strongest bite of any mammal in the world! Jaguars have been documented eating over 85 different species of prey.
LEOPARDS
Leopards are the smallest of the four big cats. Leopards have a yellow to tangy golden coat along with black rosettes and a white belly. There are estimated to be between 50,000-500,000 leopards left in the world today. Leopards on average only weigh between 70-130 pounds but are still big cats because of their ability to roar.
