Samson & Delilah

samson and delilah tigers Samson and Delilah arrived 23 Jan 01, Samson was age 6, and Delilah age 5. They are (Pantheras Tigris Tigris) Bengal tigers.

They were rescued, none too soon, from Texas. A local veterinarian made Tim aware of them. “Sammy” was so emaciated and sickly that Tim had to hand feed him for a week. Sammy couldn’t even walk when Tim got him. Delilah wasn’t in much better shape, but she could walk.

This is Sammy and Delilah in their old home, which we were glad to rescue them from:Rescued Bengal Tigers

When they were young kittens, Delilah was thrown into a swimming pool and pulled all her muscles. She wouldn’t go into a pool again until the summer of 2005 when she surprised us all by getting into the pool. We started noticing her dipping her foot in and eventually she went in. This was one very happy moment for us. Sammy and Delilah went from feces and urine infested, shade less, pool less, cramped little concrete covered cage (no house either) to a large dirt and grass-covered pen with their own pool, house, and shade. They now have lots of food and lots of love.

Isn’t Delilah beautiful?

Here is Samson in 2007, as big and healthy as he deserves to be.

Speedy Gonzales

African Serval Speedy Gonzales, arrived 26 Aug 2003, at age about 2 ½ years old, is an (Felis Serval) African Serval.

Speedy came to us from Puyallup, Washington as the result of a divorce. He lived in a two-bedroom apartment with the couple until the ex-husband said he could no longer take care of him. Speedy had some reaction to the climate and had some allergies when he arrived, but is now doing very well. He is like a typical house cat that will ignore you when he has played enough. Servals have a life span of about 19 years.
