Small cat meet and greet
what to expect
Your opportunity is knocking... I mean scratching at the door. Tanganyika Wildlife Park's small cat meet and greet experience is one that animal and wildlife lovers will not want to miss out on. During this experience, you will get to meet Tanganyika’s cat ambassador. A fascinating feline is incredible to observe up-close. But, we’ve taken it up a notch by sprinkling in interaction! You will get to take photos with them, and assist Tanganyika keepers with a training session! Keep in mind, this is NOT a house cat, so our trainers will be there to let you know exactly when and how it’s safe to interact with them.
Along the way, our trainers will be filling you with fun facts and knowledge about these cats and you are more than welcome to ask questions.
If you weren’t already a cat lover, you will be after this experience!

My family and I had a blast at the small cat meet and greet. The trainers were so knowledgeable and informative. It was so cool to see Jade so close. This meet and greet really did a great job at creating a connection with these animals. We want to do all of Tanganyika's meet and greets!
Conservation Corner: African Serval
Currently, servals are listed as least concern but they are still threatened by habitat loss and the illegal pet trade. One great way to help small cats like Jade is to research and be very cautious about what types of rodenticides you purchase and use and these can be lethal to the predators that are eating the animals.
