Insync Exotics welcomes lions, bake sale fundraiser planned

WYLIE, TX (May 29, 2014)

Welcome, Rafiki!

Seven-month old male lion cub Rafiki was formerly a member of a traveling animal show.  Due to space constraints and nutritional problems, the owners of the show needed to find a new home for Rafiki and a few of his non-cat animal friends.  The owners left them with a facility here in Texas who was able to find safe, loving homes for each of the animals.  We are THRILLED to have Rafiki at In-Sync and can’t wait to watch him grow up!

AND…

Welcome Three More Lions!

We were honored to be part of a large rescue operation headed by International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW).  There are multiple US sanctuaries now offering homes to animals that would otherwise be left homeless as a failed sanctuary near Buffalo, NY has closed its doors.  The two adult lionesses (names not yet available) and one adult male lion (Athos) were transported by and cared for by ISE volunteers and staff during their 20+ hour journey home to Texas. We welcome our new lions from the north and look forward to showing them our “southern hospitality.”
