This is a fan club for wild cat lovers like myself!  Traveling the globe, we will study different species of wild cats and what makes each breed unique and fascinating. 

We’ll spend one to two weeks focusing on a different wild cat ranging from the well known and wonderful Bengal Tiger to the lesser known but amazing Pallas Cat.  

Using pictures, diagrams and short portions of video for our exploration, we’ll expand our base of knowledge and take the jump from wild cat fan to expert enthusiast.  

We’ll learn five to eight cool facts regarding lineage, hunting habits, physical characteristics,  family and community life,  status as endangered as well as other fun information for each species.  As we touch upon what region or country each wild feline calls home, elements of geography and culture will also be introduced. 

Learners will be provided with coloring medallions that they can work on in or out of our club meetings.  These can be made into a keepsake banner for each species highlighting their various characteristics or as general decorations.  Completion of coloring medallions is entirely optional but many learners enjoy choosing some of these to work on. 

Wrapping up weekly,  club members can share something they have learned and will receive a PDF for a Junior Explorer Badge at the end of two weeks. 

Our club meetings will be relaxed as we gain knowledge and share our fascination and love for these animals together.  We’ll always have time for members to share facts or stories of interest to them, a new cat book, or a related craft or activity they have completed.  Wild cat lovers always love to learn more about these amazing felines! 

Following are the wild cats we'll get to know better!   Learners are welcome to join at any point as we will be exploring a new species of cat every two weeks and different fun facts about our breeds each week. 

Hope to see you soon and share about these amazing breeds of wild cats!   Miss Tracy
