My Story

Clover, one of our Florida Bobcats, has been at Busch Wildlife Sanctuary since March 2018. She was first brought to our rehabilitation center as an orphaned kitten who needed to be raised and rehabilitated for release. We began to realize she was having some developmental issues and later found out she had cerebellar hypoplasia, meaning that her brain did not properly develop.

This condition affects her motor skills, balance, and coordination, and she was deemed non-releasable. Because she first came to us right around St. Patrick’s Day, we decided to name her Clover!
