The Wild Cat Conservation Centre is located in the beautiful Hawkesbury valley, one hour north west of Sydney, Australia. Our centre in Wilberforce focuses on the conservation of wild cats of the world, including the only conservation breeding program for Clouded Leopard and Cheetah in Sydney. With a strong focus on the plight of small cats and to improve our understanding of them.
Of the 40 cat species, 33 are considered small cats and many of these are threatened with a real lack of knowledge about their behaviour, biology and conservation.
Visitors to our centre can learn about our conservation breeding programs and research efforts to conserve these smaller though enigmatic wild cat species.
Join us on our savanna, the largest cheetah habitat in Australia and see wild cats closer than ever before! Watch on as our cats exhibit a full range of behaviours right before your eyes, no crowds and no noise, just you and our cats!
Every tour is fully guided and personalised! Go behind the scenes and learn about the work we are doing to conserve wild cats both here in Sydney and around the world, raising awareness of the plight and vulnerability of wild cat species.
This once in a lifetime experience provides the perfect opportunity for visitors to learn about our conservation efforts and how they can help us protect them!
