Tour Rules

Remember this is our cats’ home. Please respect them.
Do not provoke the cats in any way, especially by growling or snarling at them.
If a cat growls or snarls at you, he/she is communicating his/her anxiety or irritation. Please walk away. Do not growl or snarl back.
Do not try to coax a cat out of his/her den. Most cats are simply resting, but one or two are asking to be left alone. Please respect their wishes by walking away.
Do not rattle or climb the cages.
Do not throw anything in the enclosures.
If a cat turns his/her backside towards you and raises his/her tail, then sidestep, you are about to get sprayed. Do not back up as they have a very long range.
Do not run. This could entice a cat to “chase” you. If a cat runs into another cat, a fight might erupt.
Some of our cats love to interact with the visitors. Feel free to “oooh” & “aaaah,” chuff and play hide and seek with the cats. They love the attention.
Our house cats roam freely on the property. They are friendly but can become irritable from unwanted attention. We ask that you do not handle the house cats.
