The Big Cat Place

I got an email from another faithful reader about how the big cat place south of town works. The reader asked to remain anonymous (no problem there and secret is safe with me!!) but the workings out there was 'splained...from the email:

*The big cat place(Great Cats World Park) is just south of Cave Junction on 199. It is completely free to take a horse there, you just have to talk to the owners and set up a time. We had a horse that was 30+yrs old, and we just couldn't keep the weight on him. They put him in an box where there was grass in the bottom, gave him a little grain, shot him in the head and all was done. The last thing he knew was eating grain. Then the butcher does his job, and the horse is back in the food chain. *

I haven't looked, but I thinking you could look in the phone book for the number. I'm a little wigged about cutting up a horse for a big cat but this is much better than letting them languish due to problems that have no other solution. I have to toughen up when it comes to horses. I don't have a problem with killing bovines then feeding to the big cats but something about a horse...well, I'm a wuss... Still, this is an option for people AND horses in a bad jam. Eek...
