Octagon Wildlife Sanctuary

The Octagon Wildlife Sanctuary in Punta Gorda, Florida, has rescued and cared for over 1000 animals over the past 30 years. The sanctuary is not a zoo but is open to the public on weekends and by appointment.  They depend on donations and admission fees to care for the animals.

We especially enjoyed the opportunity to get up close with the big cats.

Keep your fingers out of the kitty cages
