Sponsor a Resident Cheetah

Note: For donations in the UK, please click here External Link.  

Three cubs at CCFCCF cares for orphaned, old or injured cheetahs that cannot be released back into the wild as they do not have the skills or physical capability to survive. Although CCF is not a welfare centre, it does accommodate these non-releasable cheetahs. If another approved home becomes available, CCF relocates these cheetahs to an alternate captive facility. However, many of these cheetahs are permanent residents of CCF.

By sponsoring a non-releasable cheetah you can help us cover part or all of the annual costs for caring for them. Each cheetah costs CCF an estimated $5,000 a year in care and include food, veterinary care and pen maintenance.

Note: You will understand that we do sometimes exchange animals with other organisations for breeding and other purposes, and that occasionally we are able to release them into the wild. So while your 'sponsorship' is nominally earmarked for an individual animal, we must reserve the right to redirect your donation to another animal or group of animals if the need arises.
