Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty: wild cat

It's a wild one today, as you can see from my photo for this week's Wordless Whiskers Wednesday. That's because we're celebrating Wildlife Day, raising awareness for wild cats and other wildlife, and at the same time highlighting the great work of wildlife sanctuaries and charities helping these endangered animals

As this is a cat blog here are some beautiful and majestic wild cats 🦁🐯🐆

Climate Change poses new challenges to the ghost of the mountain. . Temperatures are on the rise across the mountains of Central Asia. The Tibetan plateau, home to more than half of the remaining snow leopards, has already gotten 3 degrees warmer in the last 20 years. The changes impact the entire ecosystem: vegetation, water supplies, animals – and they threaten to make up to a third of the snow leopard’s habitat unusable. Our everyday choices and actions are therefore intricately woven with the snow leopard. . #climatechange #snowleopard #centralasia #threats #wildlife #catsofinstagram #wildcats #wildcatsofinstagram #snow #ghostofmountain #cameratrap #climateaction #climate

Purchased online by a Minnesota man wanting to have a fur farm, Stelter lived in tiny suspended cages in his backyard. No shelter from the elements except a plastic barrel 😢. When his granddaughter got too close and was scratched, the family reached out to us. From where they came to where they are today, it truly makes our hearts sing 🎶❤. THIS is what your donations help make possible 👏 and we thank you. #wildcatsanctuary #sanctuary #wild #tiger #whitetiger #lion #lioness #bobcat #lynx #cats #cat #catsofinstagram #wildlife #wildlifephotography #photography #photo #photooftheday #picture #pictureoftheday #pictures #animalplanet #WWF #bigcatrescue #jacksongalaxy

We attended a meeting with Michael Gove this week to discuss banning the import of hunting trophies into the UK. It was quite a heated meeting and you can read an account if it by clicking on our website link in our bio. #lions #banliontrophyhunting #banliontrophyimports
