THE TRAIL
For Project Survival Cat Haven’s 2023 Spring Twilight Tour, enjoy freely walking the trail surrounded by the vibrant colors of Spring in the Sierra Nevada foothills. Twilight Tour offers the rare opportunity to freely walk our trail without a guide so that you can go at your own pace, spending as much time with your favorite cats as you’d like. Starting at the trailhead beside the Gift Shop, you can walk either direction on our quarter-mile, winding loop trail, paved by Oak, Manzanita, and Buckeye trees. Along the trail, you will see about 25 of our resident cats including Tigers, Lions, Jaguars, Snow Leopards, Bobcats, Mountain Lions and more. Docents will be stationed throughout the trail to answer questions you may have along the way. Our
knowledgeable docents can teach you about each species, help you discover some of the conservation projects that Cat Haven supports, or answer general questions that you may have about our facility. The trail is on dirt and decomposed granite and has some slightly steep uphills and downhills. It may be warm during the day at the Cat Haven in April but can get chilly as the evening goes on. Comfortable shoes and clothing appropriate for the weather are recommended. Pictures and videos are welcome and encouraged. The trail will be open to freely walk until dark (~ 8pm).

Need assistance? We offer a Golf Cart guided experience. Please call
ahead to reserve – 559-338-3216.

ENRICHMENT TOURS
One of the most exciting elements about Twilight Tour at Cat Haven is that you’ll get the opportunity to see our cats when they are most active – at sunset. If you would like to see even more action, follow the Enrichment Tour! During the Enrichment Tour, Zookeepers will be giving enrichment, or new interactive items like treats and toys that
encourage exciting natural behaviors, to each of the cats. This tour will start shortly after 5:00 pm, will go in order with the direction of the trail, and will be guided by the zookeepers.

DINNER
Dinner buffet will be open throughout the evening – BBQ’d chicken and tri-tip, mouth-watering sides as well as vegetarian options will be available.

Want an even more intimate dinner experience? VIP tickets include privately served dinner.

Our Mission

Project Survival’s Cat Haven is an innovative park dedicated to the preservation of wild cats. It specializes in education and is engaged in both captive and range country conservation.

It is this link to the conservation of cats in their native habitat which makes the work of the Cat Haven especially meaningful. While some of the cats at Project Survival have been orphaned in the wild or have needed to be re-homed due to varying circumstances, we do not call ourselves a sanctuary.

We provide excellent homes for all of our cats but our focus is to educate people about the plight of endangered cat species, and to raise funds for the conservation projects in the wild. Working to mitigate problems between cats and people in the wild, these projects are vital to protecting and conserving these beautiful animals.
