I loved how when the 3 tigers ran in, they all had to run through the tunnel together :)
Too cute ❤
Cutie pie
I bet they didn't like it.
Yes
🐅🐯🦁
I'm sure these big cats all marking their territory in the vacation rotation is just a hilarious endless cycle ...
1st vacation: "Hey I like this tree! I will make it mine."
2nd vacation: "Hey, I'm pretty sure I called dibs on this tree...Oh well let's claim it again..."
3rd vacation: "Okay WTH is going on?! Do I own nothing?!"
Maybe it's funnier in my head....
LOL XD
Jonathon Sawyer it cracks me up! 😂
Jonathon Sawyer hi
Jonathon Sawyer yep
Jonathon Sawyer it always happens XD but it’s true
LMAO! OK that stinky face is priceless! I'm glad they had fun!

NaCl I can just see them snapping 😂
NaCl do your little turn on the catwalk

wow comedy genius
always breaks my heart seeing them tailless.
+SK4869
A tailless cat always It breaks your heart?! Wait till your heart really gets broken; then you won't have any words to describe it.
Le Trebuchet well it's only the tigers that my heart breaks, mainly because i love tigers so much & seeing them tailless really effects me. i can't explain it. when you see a tiger weather it be in the wild or in captivity you expect to see them whole. i do not know if they feel any different by not having a full tail. & i know it is only a tail & not a leg. but still it hurts me.
*****
I wasn't finding fault with your inexplicable empathy for tigers and especially ones who have lost their tails. This undoubtedly relates to an experience in your childhood when you witnessed a tiger house cat losing its tail in some traumatic way. (I have a friend who always cries at parades and has no idea why.)
My only admonition was in using a descriptive term that illustrates the most devastating emotional experience a human can endure. Perhaps you are young enough to have not yet experienced worse emotional pain than you feel when seeing a tailless tiger; but, unfortunately, infinitely greater pain awaits you.
Le Trebuchet you are very wise my friend. oh yes, ever since i can remember my empathy for tigers has been a definite strong hold on me, is the only way that i can describe it. i have experienced traumatic circumstances involving cats but even with this laying heavy on my shoulders, still i feel deeply for Tigers, is like i was once a Tiger in my past life, maybe that has something to do with it. i do not know. but what we feel we cannot contain. we are only human after all. oh yes i understand about greater pain, that i have experienced. even though a tiger with no tail may not be very important because the tiger is living & has a life to live, i understand there are much more greater pains that awaits us all. thank you. appreciate the kind words. sometimes we may not see for our own eyes, it is much better coming from another.
*****
Thank you, Good Person! Perhaps it will be of some consolation for you to know that, just as human amputees experience "phantom limbs" -- the feeling that the missing appendage is still there; so a tailless tiger is blissfully unaware that its tail is gone! (So ... Shhhh ... don't let on that you don't see it! :-)
Meanwhile, as long as we remain open to the agony that awaits us, its blissful partner -- ecstasy -- will always make it all worthwhile.
Those tigers look really happy and having fun playing around. They are happy to be out their cage.
They are just like us.... they cant wait for their holiday to start
MsRainbow Brite you are are so right about that
So does stinky face basically mean that they don't like the smell of the other big cats so they visibly show it? Because stinky face is adorable haha
MsCasper060606 We LOVE stinky face. This is also called Flemhen. Cats have a Jacobson's organ in the roof of their mouths, so by making this face, they are actually smelling through their mouth. The do this whether they think something smells good or bad.
MsCasper060606 I get
Big Cat Rescue me
Love when they do stinky face, so flipping cute!!
that lion on the tall platform was like, oh my god! this is amaze view!😮😮😮😮😮😮
Or maybe I,am the king..
They all seem so happy to be out there exploring. I love this! It has to be an amazing job to get to come to work and take care of these guys. You give them a place where they can be themselves as animals, (as opposed to places like the circus or private owners who don't always treat them as they are, instead trying to turn them into a domestic house cat.) you respect them and honor their natural instincts and behavior. That is visible in your videos. Love what you guys are doing and how you clearly care about all the animals you have there. That speaks volumes to the awesome people you must be. ☺
+Nicole Slater I love what they're doing there at BCR.. I'm always filled with joy after watching their videos.. after a tough day of work or feeling down, I come to their channel and they don't disappoint. They really allows the cats to be as close to wild as much as possible and this vacation is a great example. Keep up the great work everyone!
All positive vibe from your comment .which is super nice , true and rare these days on social media and TH-cam ,, cheers :)
Nicole Slater kiss your butt
Nicole Slater cc
Aiden Kue ok but why that's kinda mean to do that for no reason... 😐
Love it! Stinky Face XD I've seen my house cats make the same face but it's nowhere near as hilarious and adorable. My mother always called it "grinning".
CapnSavvy I think it has to do with exposing glands to smell....
It's called the Flehmen response. And +Mr.Miamiswaggz305 you're right about the organ part. I believe it's called Jacobson's organ. A lot of animals do it: horses, goats, deer, giraffes.
+CapnSavvy It's called a grimace.

Alisha Griffin when they do that,what does it means
It is my goal to one day leave everything behind and go work with you until Florida's heat kill me

3:50 I love they stinky face look they give, when they smell something new.
As a tiger lover, I'm really happy to see the effort and care invested in enriching their lives this way. Two BIG thumbs way up!
their face they make when they smell other cats' marks are hilarious! xD
+Z0MG H4X There is no way you can't smile and laugh when you see "stinky face".
in what minute?
Well done. Love the enrichment programs. Hope others follow suit.
Nice to give them space to run.
Thank you for taking care of these big cats =)
Thank you for being so good to them! They are safe, well-fed, and loved at BCR!
Thank you for watching!
They do look so relaxed . . . . God bless them and the BCR staff.
the big cats with the stinky face is what makes me laugh WAy to hard
WOW what a great place , fantastic work you folks are doing for these majestic animals.
Thank you!
The tunnel looks pretty fun for them to walk through. You guys show a truly good heart for taking care of the big cats so well!
I'd definitely volunteer if I lived near by, looks like a lot of fun!
You guys are so awesome, such thought and care in your designs, absolutely brilliant! You should be the benchmark for all other sanctuaries. God bless you all 🤗🤗
they are so beautiful and look happy to be on vacation. love seeing them play in the water and splashing. "new smells = stinky face"... love that! i always crack up when my cats do that.
I hope this sanctuary can expand and accept a lot more rescued cats. May God Bless this sanctuary.
Lucky Dingding If you want to help, donate if you can!
You guys take such good care of them :-)
+Nici Poppleton Thank you for your support! We dedicate our live to provide the best possible care for our big cats.
Your welcome! The world is a better place for those guys with you instead of in tiny cages.. I love your work!
i love what you guys are doing to save these animals keep it up :D
اهتمامكم بهذه المخلوقات الجميلة وجهودكم المبذولة،، اجمل واكبر واروع عطاء يستاهل مليون لايك👍✌️
It's always so reassuring to see how committed BCR is to keeping the cats and humans safe & making sure these big cats have the best life possible.
I LOVE THIS!! This is the first I've seen of this place. Just happened upon it. THANK YOU for the work & effort !! Having maintained & run a private/non-profit/no-kill animal shelter in FL for domestic dogs & cats I can only imagine how much MORE is needed to keep this up!! LOVE the "stinky face"!!! LOLOLOL
+Perri de'Angel Thank you for watching!
i love cats and the people that care for them its wonderful to see
Stinky Face and Skinny Dippin are my favorites. 😝💜
I'm glad they have a better vacation than me
What a great video. Thank you. I can never see too many tigers as they are in my top 2 favs. Panda being the other. I am soo thankful to God that there are people like you that care soo much for these magnificent animals.
I would love to live there if I was a big cat xD
That's way cool! I would like to see a similar video with lions enjoying themselves there!:-)
+SatanISintheWorld! GetRightWithTheLORDJesus!! Only two of our three lions go in the vacation rotation, but all they like to do is lounge around. Male lions sleep about 21 hours a day.
It's a wonderful thing to do for them, as they can run and investigate, and feel freedom in a way most of those rescues never have. And the enrichment factor keeps them well mentally as well as physically, so it really is a beautiful thing to do for them!
Thank you for your support!
Nothing more magnificent than seeing tigers swim....
beautiful!
I love the funcation & vacation rotation idea. It’s great enrichment & change of scenery for them♥️
Happy cats!
totally magnificent.
You guys rock!
The "yucky" face is funny
I never seen something majestic more than running tiger in open area.
4:51 me when I see my crash
That's such a great idea!
A great idea vacation Rotation is only for Love , your love BCR for the big cat good bless you💕🏆
Nature's beauty
Lol,they look like they are having fun!
2:52 Holy Sh!t IIt's a Smilodo-- Wait wait... Nevermind. x'D
superb first viewing of this video; what a difference, to spending their lives in cages . Over 70 yrs, I have not been to a circus, neither have my children, or grandchildren. Once a Safari parc. Where the animals roam around .We in the car . It was before air conditioned cars .The heat was atrocious . We live in southern France. So I really enjoy your videos.
Loved seeing this again. Especially the Texas Trio and Zabu and Cam.
I WISH I WAS A CAT IN BIG CAT RESCUE!!
Wierd flex but okay
Big cats working with big cats
Big cats ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
it's so cute the way tigers walk
Love this! Since you do rotations, how often do they get to vacation?
They usually get to vacation a minimum of twice a year.
Love this video. I encourage others that also do to consider going to BCR website and setting monthly auto donation of $5 a month to this wonderful place. Question. Do the big cats ever climb the trees?
venniey Some of our bobcats and one of our leopards climb into the trees.
that one tiger with stuby tale is so cute awww
Like how you guys love and take care of your animals!
i love stinky face its s cute

wait why is one of the tigers tail less?
birth defect?
Rescued from the out doors with out one?
+Big Cat Rescue don't you think more people would support you if all the cages were this size? Personally I'd support cages this size for the cats all year round. They must get so down when returned to their normal cage.
+Big Cat Rescue I love your work!!!
+Kris yep!!!
And all of this magnificent alpha predators are frendlier than my own cat.
All jokes aside, you can tell by their attitude and body language: those cats are noticeable happy.
God bless you all x
When I first looked at the title, I though it said Vaccinations instead of vacations. XD

Thank you Big Cat Rescue. You guys are true angels.
Thank you for watching and for your support!
Wooooooooow tigers are sooooo beautiful and majestic
Big Cat Rescue how long can it take to build one of these enclosures?
kat nelson It took months to build an enclosure of that size.
Big Cat Rescue wow and I think it's amazing how you are able to keep the cats so entertained I can barely keep my sis entertained for a short amount of time and how do you get the enclosures look so much like the cats original habitat
kat nelson Keeping the big cats stimulated is very important for captive animals.
Big Cat Rescue OK that's interesting to know I would love to help out at the shelter but I live no where near you guys
+kat Nelson. Love the video. Very lucky cats at BCR.
I envy the big cats, with their ease and grace in the water... Deep water terrifies me to no end.
Thalassophobia for you.
I think my life would be better as a tiger in BIG CAT rescue! :D
Kitties are lucky to be at BCR where they are well cared for.
Dont underestimate these cats guy . They can kill big buffalo on 1v1 and Siberian tiger can kill brown bear 1v1 . Their fight technique is better than lion
Anyway , Zabu hugs the tree look so cute
Who tell you that
fighting technique? there animals not martial artist and tigers aren't always better obviously a lion is capable of beating a tiger like ive seen before, people act like every single tiger is better then every single lion
2:26
Could the tigers dig, the open part of the tunnel?
The tunnels are completely closed in on all four sides.
They look happy
I love the cute little face they make when they're disgusted by the scent of a new surrounding
They make this face because they actually like the smell. th-cam.com/video/XBFP7NQ58v0/w-d-xo.html
One question..
How do you get them back into their respective enclosures?
exactly! how???
KFC
Our Philadelphia Zoo rotates their tigers too.
The big cats look so cute and they all look happyyy and active toooo!!😀Pls like if u agree!!
LOL @ stinky face. I love when these big cats pull the same faces my two housecats do. They were all so excited to get back to their vacation spot
Have you seen our Stinky Face video? th-cam.com/video/XBFP7NQ58v0/w-d-xo.html
+Big Cat Rescue 4:09,XD
why does one of your tigers ha ve no tail?
th-cam.com/video/UvaPjse1z24/w-d-xo.html
Anyone else notice that the entire staff there is all women?
All of our staff have been hired out of our volunteer pool. It is extremely common in the non-profit animal industry to have a dominance of female volunteers.
Big Cat Rescue That makes sense
Big Cat Rescue gender dosent matter 🙂
Every big cat in captivity deserves this kind of life. So awesome!
I love those babies! They are soo cute!
so very beautiful ! i don't have faith in organized religions, but if you need proof there is a God, just look at nature and wildlife. the beauty could never be explained purely by 'the big bang'. great to see them having such fun ! thank you for caring for them
Why must we bring religion into everything just let everyone enjoy the video in there own way
Merope Angel Your comment just made me lose my goddamn shit. A+
Linda T bruh
we respect & honour those people who maded all the facilities infrastructure to the big cats what enviornments big cats love what a nice job you guys did for these monsters our salute to you
Ahhhh. Fun to see the tiger trio get out there. We can hope they are less interested in the turtles than Cameron was lol 😉
2:41 Love how they all went straight for that pipe.
