A place called Octagon: A special sanctuary
A relative of mine saw this place, called Octagon, in person and said it was a wonderful experience.
The director, this relative says, is Jack Hannah, and it is a non-profit, non-breeding, no kill shelter for exotic animals, most of which have come from abandoned or abusive backgrounds. Their website is www.octagonwildlife.org.
It is not a zoo, in the sense that all animals have been rescued and no zoo will take them, often because of physical and/or mental disorders. They may have come from terrible circumstances, but their life is much better now.
I enjoyed the video and thought I would share it with you.:)

The Snuggles Project
If you love animals and making things (crochet, knit, quilt or sew) then you will probably be interested in The Snuggles Project. It's making and donating blankets for animals that are in shelters, where the floor can be cement or other harsh, cold environments.
