Butternut Farm Wildcat Sanctuary

There were 3 bobcats, an albino squirrel, 2 caged feral cats and 1 cat who was super friendly. The man who runs the place said they prefer u make an appointment but he stayed and showed us the animals. He knew so much about them so I learned a lot. He operates from donations only so I left donations there and at Happy Tails in Johnstown. This man really cares about these animals. Two of the bobcats were rescued from abusive homes, how sad. God bless this man and his volunteers.

I am one of the volunteers, for 5 yrs now, twice a week. Had to tell you all we just lost our beloved Shadow, our beautiful wolf, Thurs this past week, and we are so heart broken!! But I personally feel like I've lost a close friend, as I know Rick and Maren have lost a piece of their heart, as I can only imagine!! They were the lucky ones to have shared Shadows life for 15 plus years!! Please send up your blessings for all 3 of them. The sanctuary was so special to have the exceptional wolf named Shadow, who will always be in our hearts and minds!! I cherish every moment I had with him, every kiss i got from him!! He is in my minds eye now, running free and happy and healthy!! Love you Shadow, always, and thank you for the priviledge of being a tiny part of your life!!

This is the best, bar none. The love and care displayed for ALL of the animals was very impressive. I was more than happy to donate funds, knowing that these animals will benefit. I highly recommend this place for true animal lovers.

This is a Wonderful Sanctuary to visit for the entire family. Adults and children of all ages will enjoy and learn about these Beautiful Animals and what it means to truly Love and Care for them. They are Large Wild Animals that need lots of care, lots of Love and lots of everything else and Rick provides all that and much more. Thank you Rick for providing a wonderful safe & loving environment for these Beautiful animals.
