Took our kiddo for a half day trip, $12/adult and $8 for seniors and kids as donation. Its totally worth the price, our kid loves those big cats, and those cats are rescued and taken good care of. Well definitely come back.

The care and love for their residents is amazing. Spacious enclosures and playgrounds, each animals specific personality and needs are met. The only thing is that the owner has a very difficult and mercurial personality and advises extremely inappropriate actions to employees and volunteers. While there is no question of her devotion to her babies, she is almost almost criminally negligent with the lives and well-being of the people working there. Visit if you can, but if you choose to attempt to work there be careful.

Absolutely beautiful animals, clean area, and kind staff. So happy we made it out here. Being that we are from nearly 650miles away. Definitely worth it.

This is a place for tiger lovers. If you want to see them up close without any gimmicks or tricks. Its a rescue home for the tigers and lions and some exotic species. The staff is extremely friendly and they are very interactive. I loved to see their dedication to this job. All the animals are well maintained and love to see them well cared for . I enjoyed it. But I emphasis its only for animal lovers. Before I leave just to add its 12$per person.

Such a cool place. Being that close to giant cats and knowing they were all rescued from bad situations is amazing. The people there obviously love the sanctuary and their cats. Go visit but it might be better when it cold down a bit.

This place is amazing! You will get as close to a big cat as you will ever be (unless youre REALLY unlucky of course) and not just one kind! They have tigers, leopards, cheetahs, bobcats, African lions, and mountain lions. Even a couple Servals. The donation to walk around as long as you like is reasonable (youd pay more for the zoo and not get nearly as close), and it goes to help keep the cats alive and happy. As you walk around, you can watch the volunteers interact with the cats and theyre happy to answer questions. Each animals story is posted along with interesting information about their species. It really is a wonderful experience. I highly recommend visiting even just once to see just how big they really are. Its really neat to watch such massive creatures act like house cats.

Really good .It’s more than a zoo.You can see almost 70 wild cats at one place .Most of them are Tigers.Most important all are rescued cats .This is the place where I have seen the big cats soo close almost like a 4 feet distance .Few Lions and couple of cougars and leopards, Cheetah,It’s a one stop where you can watch them so close .Cleanliness is well maintained .Staff are always present at every corner taking care of cats and visitors .Avoid hot days as the cats will be lazy and will be hidden in their dens .

Loved it you can see the tigers so close it was cool

We just got done with our bone tour. It was amazing and the best time we have had there yet. We would recommend others to do this. This is a great way to see the cats active and hear about there history. Our tour guide Debbie was amazing. Extremely polite, knowledgeable, pointed out the best viewing points and routes to take to get to see all the cats. The team feeding them were also amazing with getting us to see the cats active and how they are very attentive and there relationships with them is so caring and beautiful to see how they have bonded. We love it there!

Just did a guided tour with Debbie. She was very knowledgeable and kind. She did a great job on interacting with my kids and was informative on all the animals. This is a non profit organization but I do highly encourage donations to these poor animals. These cats cant survive in the wild. This places is the best thing for them. Even if its in a cage. We did participate in social distancing along with wearing a mask. Please read the website and obey the rules. There for your safety and for the well being of the cats.

Love this place. Everytime we have visitors we bring them here. Unfortunately you have to wear a mask outside but hopefully that will end soon. Its still a great opportunity to be so close to the cats and looking forward to our next visit.

Very close view of animals! All the helpers love the animals. Very Covid safe. Strict enforcement for adults and kids under 3. Everyone was kind and professional and kind. We will be back! Thank you!

There want really much to do but look at the animals that were kind of hard to see through the fencing. You couldn’t feed them or get much closer and was very boring.

It is the closest I ever got to a male Lion with full mane. They are much bigger than I thought. Wonderful learning experience for Kids

It was a really fun experience to see cats up close, but it was very dirty and the cats had a very small living space. I came with one of my friends and it came out to a total of $24 . I gave the lady $40 and she only gave me back $8 only with ones tho. You walk in mud the entire time . I tried calling the front desk about 22 times about the money situation and no call . very unorganized.

Beautiful animals. It was hot, so there werent too many animals out of their dens, but it was still time well spent. Well be back in the fall or winter when theyll most likely be out of their dens.

We went for the pumpkin toss watching the cats playing with and eating the was great fun, They are having fowl toss later this month plan on going.

Fantastic enclosures with large play areas for the cats! I was able to get closer than Ive been able to in the past, but my and the cats safety was always put first (many signs about specific cat behavior and the required human response). Would recommend for a short day trip, and I will be going back

The place is Amazing. Granddaughter has adopted 3 times and were on our way today for 4th.

Came with 2 small children, 6 & 4. I get it’s an animal rescue center and not a zoo, but it is open to the public with an entrance fee, so subject to criticism. Parking: bad. Staff: rude and annoying. Animals: easy to see. Walking path: dirt, mud & rocks with animal feces prevalent.Overall, I would not recommend. Making children wear masks when outside, in the sun, on a 100 degree day, is moronic. Your staff demanding it and then not wearing them 100% of the time while on the premises is inexcusable. Having everyone touch the same entry door, pen, paper and tablet is a joke in and of itself. Going to the Dallas or Fort Worth zoos or Fossil Rim Wildlife Center are infinitely better, in my opinion. I paid to feel like I was intruding here.

Overall, it was a cool experience. Its awesome to see some of these magnificent animals up close. One thing that bothered me a bit was the $12 donation. Its a charge, plain and simple. If you are going to charge people, dont advertise it as something else. Im sure they are doing their best, but it still bothers me to see these cats in cages that arent big enough. Hopefully they can expand in the future.

Non-profit that has over 200 volunteers dedicated to care for cats that were stuffed into duffel bags to smuggle across the border, or locked in dog kennels with their tails cut so they cant reject being bred over and over again, often to direct relatives, all to feed a horrific market of canned hunts and pet the tiger side shows, animals that arrive with numerous health issues from seizures to being severely malnourished, this place takes them all and provides a haven. This place isnt for the visitors like a zoo, theyll not waste money on walkways when it can go to the cats having new enrichment or enclosures to rescue more, theyre all about the cats. With cats having contracted COVID-19 at the Bronx Zoo they take the pandemic very seriously as they should, masks on at all times for anyone over 3 years of age. If you believe the world revolves around you and yours, youll not be able to truly appreciate how here it revolves around the cats. However, if you open yourself to seeing the little details everywhere that show you just how much they truly care, in each and every enclosure, youre going to walk out knowing youve been a part of something bigger than you and you helped some amazing animals live out their remaining days in comfort and love.

Nice place for kids to see cats up close.

This place was amazing!!!! The guids are so great and knowledgeable and they really do care for the cats. The big cats are so cute and they also had lemurs. but they didnt want to come out in the heat, they were all lemur alone. I highly recommend a trip out here.

Amazing place, friendly staff and love the work they are doing of taking care of rescued wild cats

Fun little place to see all types of tigers, is a hidden gem

If you want to see tigers up close this is the place and is for a good cause

What a terrific experience watching these glorious, regal cats being fed their meat.bones. This is no easy task and the staff and volunteers so clearly love their work. You can see their dedication in the way they interact with the animals. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.

Love the people caring for these beautiful cats! This was amazing. Big beautiful animals up close and personal yet safe ! These cats have excellent care by their keepers and are amazing to watch . Come and see them and know you are helping them so much when you visit.

Kitties look well taken care of. You cant get too close but close enough to be glad theres two rows of fences between you.

If you enjoy wearing a face covering outdoors when the heat index is 109 and not another soul is around, this is your place.The only interaction with staff was telling us all the rules about face masks because “cats (obviously over 6 ft away) get covid”There is little to no signage and staff was unhelpful with guiding around.

Me & my partner visited this place the day after Valentines Day for a special early-morning pancake breakfast event; it was the first time wed ever been, & Id been wanting to go since I visited with the staff at the North Texas Irish Festival a year prior.Let me just say: this facility exceeded all my expectations. As a soft-hearted, lifetime lover of animals, Im drawn to like-minded people, & In Sync Exotics is a haven for folks like that. The animals who call this place home are truly beloved & truly cared for - often after having experienced trauma & exploitation at the hands of others. You can walk & talk with any of the staff & experience that same outpouring of empathy, that same love & admiration for these amazing creatures, who all deserve the opportunity to live full & abuse-free lives.If youre visiting because you just want to see a big cat up close, then hey, good for you; they wont disappoint! There are plenty of cats ready to entertain with their antics.But if you, like me, are visiting because the world makes you sad sometimes, & you just need to know that there are other people out there working tirelessly to protect creatures like these from exploitation, then I can only hope you dont put off your visit as long as I did. You owe it to your heart to go tomorrow.

Kind of small but still cool to check out.

My kids and I enjoyed our visit. They are ages 9, 11, 14 and 16. You can see the big cats easily. They are well cared for and you know that the $ paid is used to care for the cats. The guides knew the animals personalities. Hearing the lions talk/roar was a special treat.

I have mixed feelings. I just wish these cats had larger areas to run around. They are rescuing these animals, which is great, but their habitat is so unnatural. Staff was super friendly.

Loved the place. They have so many big cats and lions. All the animals are in very good health! Good job guys. Please fix the car parking area.

Amazing place the people were really nice and it was honestly a lot better than the zoo. They take amazing care of the animals. Will be going back in the future for sure.

What a neat attraction in our backyard. Its full of large cats in a safe, up close format.Most of these animals are rescues and are here to live out their lives in a clean and well cared for environment.The staff is great and there are volunteers everywhere who love to talk about the cats and provide insight their stories.Its an easy destination for the family and not expensive.

A very nice place to see tigers and lions and other big cats up close.Only a dedicated staff such as in-syncs could maintain the facilities they do.Nice place to bring the kids....Just avoid coming here when it rains.Prices a reasonable as well.

This is a great place to see all of the big cats up close. The people are nice and we always have a good time

Its a shame that so many large cats need to be rescued. But its wonderful that theres organizations available that recover them from inhumane conditions, rehab them and then care for them...

I took my grandkids for a quick tour on our way home from vacation and stopped in the main office to find out more info and this lady was very helpful and friendly. We said we would walk around a bit and stop back in and visit more. And I would have probably left our $30 donation. But you know how you have that one person that can ruin it for the whole class? We ran into that person on the grounds. She VERY RUDELY asked us Where are your masks? I said we have them right here. She said Uh yeah well youre supposed to be wearing them not just having them with you. I said ok Im sorry we just took them off for a break its so hot. She said Uh yeah I know!!. Ok first we really didnt know they were required OUTSIDE IN THE HEAT. But we put them back on. She really could have changed her tone and asked nicely and explained to us that they prefer we keep them on. We didnt have a soul around us for 20 yards. And we discussed keeping a distance from others while visiting each cage. I dont know who she thinks she is but she needs to come down off her pedestal before shes knocked off. Her boss or whoever is in charge needs to calm her butt down and tell her how to treat guests in their facilities. I will not tell others to go visit this place. I will tell everyone how this chic was very hateful and rude. Cost yall $30. We came, we saw. WE LEFT

Pretty cool place! Staff was friendly and the animals were super cool.

If you like tigers youll love it here

I would recommend spending some time here. The big cats are beautiful and well taken care of.

The animals looked well cared for! The surrounding walk areas couldve been cleaned up better & less muddy for people to walk around.

Very nice, up close views of tigers and big cats. Our experience was a bit hectic, but it was a holiday/special event - Easter egg hunt. There were carnival type games, vendors, and face painting.I’m sure it would be very pleasant not on a holiday weekend.

Such a fun place. We have been going for the last 12 years and it only gets better each time. It is a non-profit so ultimately you pick what you donate. I personally feel like there recommended donation amount is a little steep.

Great volunteer based organization helping big cats in need. The staff is wonderful and they put in so much effort into providing the best they can for the kitties. Love visiting and reading about each of the resident kitties. Worthwhile organization to which to donate and volunteer time.

Loved every minute of running around getting to meet everyone!

Self guided tour through the whole property was a sight to see. Lions, tigers, bobcats, cheetahs, and a whole lot more.In addition to the big cats, there are a bunch of little cats that roam the property (Theyre just little house cats though. But still cute!) A few will let you pick them up and carry them around for a bit.They also have goats and a horse hidden away on property and theyre friendly and will let you pet them as well.Staff is super friendly and will gladly let you watch whats going on. We got to see a couple cougars get an IV. The staff simply asks that no pictures be taken of the volunteers.

They have a clean safe facility for the animals they care for. Though the interaction is through-the-bars (that I saw) you can tell the animals are getting good care from the care givers. They wouldnt respond the way they do if it werent so. The enclosures are large.Id highly recommend this to tiger lovers.While its ADA accessable, for the most part, but itd be a workout. Its quite hilly and the paths are gravel.

GOO!! Support them and have some fun staring at huge kitties!!

It was so impressed with the condition of these beautiful cats that have been rescued from horrible situations and conditions. To read the stories of each rescue and see the pictures of before and after was just amazing. The care and areas built for them is really done with so much love. You can honestly see that donations to this center would be well spent and very much appreciated.Loved every minute spent there.Rebecca

It was awesome to see these exotic cats! If you can make the trip, you should. We went in February and they were a little active but Im thinking when spring comes they would be a little active like playing in the water. Super fun.

We had a blast looking at all the different big cats. The Lemers jumped right up against the cage and we loved petting the horse and the goats. We also were able to watch some of the cougers get IV fluids which was very fascinating! All ticket costs go back into In-Sync to take care of the animals. Highly recommend!

Its amazing I recommend everyone to go

We were just driving by and stopped in to see what it was. What an excellent surprise! There are a bunch of big cats that are active and up close. The staff is great and the place is clean and the animals are clearly well cared for. Do yourself a favor and pay this place a visit.

I was so excited to go here and I was not disappointed. I will definitely go back in the fall when the kitties are more lively.

The place is neat, cool to see the cats up close, however we were bothered by the requested donation. At the front desk, they make you feel like it is more of a required donation. Basically it is a charge, but they call it a donation to avoid taxes. If it is a donation, let it be of free will. Dont act like it is a charge.

The service they are providing speaks louder than the small issues we encountered, esp since their facility relies heavily on charity. Support their efforts to take care of these beautiful animals. Perhaps someone could offer to help improve their walkways (turns to mud during wet days) and other conditions that are not getting as much attention.

I didnt know there was a big cat rescue facility in our midst. It was definitely a neat place to go to see a variety of large cats.At $12.00 a person I thought a little high, but wandered around for an hour taking it all in.

Got watch care takers with the cats, wow.

My wife and I had a great time. Staff and volunteers were extremely friendly and the cats were incredible. It was a very different experience than you’d get at a zoo.

This is a wonderful spot to see large cats that are unable to live in the wild. Dont expect to pay extra and let your kid hold a tiger because these people are professionals and have the best interest of the animals as the primary focus.Be sure to buy a calendar or join their club to support these selfless folks.

Lots of well cared for cats, great to just experience or learn about them!

My experience unfortunately wasn’t the best but that was because of my 2 year old! I decided to go during nap time which was a mistake on my part. I paid $12 for myself and was there about 15 minutes total. I still felt the $12 regardless of the time I spent was worth it. My son started pulling fits so I decided it was best we leave so he didn’t disturb the cats. Had nothing to do with the place or staff nor did they ever make me feel like I needed to leave! I gave them 5 stars because if my child allowed it, I would have enjoyed my time. It was really hot out so I didn’t see many cats out but I expected that. As far as some reviews talking about the staff being rude, I didn’t get that vibe at all. They were all out there cleaning and caring for the enclosures and no one was ever rude to me. Any staff I came across were really nice to both me and my 2 year old. I read signs that said any rules about parking and such as they make it pretty clear. I will say next visit I go, I will go without a small child that needs a nap and also when it’s a tad bit cooler out. The cats looked very well taken care of. Once I paid, the staff let’s you just walk around and stay as long as you want (lots of signs and stuff talking about all the cats as you walk around) Overall if I am judging the place/staff and not my 2 year old I would definitely recommend!

Absolutely amazing. Please visit and donate generously.

Beautiful animals,happy animals, caring staff, and a wonderful experience to see.

Friendly staff.. beautiful cats.

Small but beautifully maintained space. The animals all look relaxed and happy. Definitely worth a visit

I think this is the most awesome place in the whole state of Texas! I always enjoy volunteering to help here.

This place is rely nice and fun to learn about the tigers, inbreeding and, what thay are doing is just amazing.

This place is amazing. You can tell the animals are well taken care of and respected. Large enclosures for play and rest. Volunteer staff is knowledgeable. What a cool place to take the family. My teenager even loved it...and do they really love anything at this age? Ill definitely be back.

This place is doing a great job of picking up where selfish people left off. They are feeding, caring and cleaning up after the animals others left behind. I not only saw these great animals but saw their caregivers spraying and scrubbing their new habitats.

They cats seems happy and they do have a good number of animals there

I appreciate so deeply what they are offering these creatures. Happy to contribute and I look forward to another visit.

Beautiful animals. Well cared for and loved

Had an amazing time and the staff is very friendly!!! Love seeing all the big cats up close.

We really enjoyed our time here. Lots of cats to see!! Speaking with many of the staff, you can tell they care about these magnificent creatures.

Wonderful place! You can tell its all about the animal Care as it should be. Loved being so close to those magnificent cats!

Good place to to walk around to see all the wild cats that had been rescued. Good place for jogging. Use anti-mosquitos before you come in to prevent mosquito bites.

This is the most Awesome Place I ever been to! Friendly staff and well-maintaned. I love to help and volunteer there.

Awesome forever sancuary for these amazing cats.

Amazing place. Highly recommend

Cool place to take the kids. Says its a nonprofit and donations are welcome but not a must, but first thing before they let us in was charged me and my kids 50$ was definitely not worth 50$ but on the up side seeing animals was cool better off going to the dallas or fort worth zoo for the cost.

This is a really cool place. Its not exactly how I imagined, but thats probably due to lack of funding. They could use more cement paths because they day I went it was really wet and muddy, but their priority is the animals, not the visitors, so Im sure funds are mostly used to care for the cats, which is great. The cats are amazing!!!! I could have stayed there all day just watching them. Its definitely worth the trip and if anything, it raises awareness of the needs of these beautiful WILD animals that people unfortunately thought would make great pets.

The staff members are compassionate and extremely informative. We went when it was hot so the cats were hot and lazy but it was cool to see them in their environment. The store is reasonably priced and well stocked.

Amazing place. It is unbelievable how many people buy or raise tigers, lions, cougars, bobcats, servals etc but havent the slightest ability to do so. This place is continually building more space and rescuing more animals. They deserve your support. Its nice to visit also. Today we saw a tiger playing in a pond with a huge plastic ball for over an hour. Amazing place.

OMG... Ive never seen such beautiful animals! They are cared for so well, you can tell everyone loves these gorgeous babies. They do need lots of volunteers. I LOVE THIS PLACE !!!

What a fun place to see some really large cats up close, and and awesome cause of rescuing them from poor conditions

Great staff and volunteers! Always willing to talk to you about all of the amazing cats!

Fun place to see big cats up close.

Unable to go in but website said open

This was very clean and animals were well taken care of. It is wonderful the liovng care they give these animals that need iit after being rescued. After speaking to a volunteer it seems they give as much love to the animals in death as in love. This is evident by memory wall.

Loved it! So many beautiful animals!!!

Fun place to take your family and out of town guests. There are lots of lions, tigers, and other big cats there. You are able to view the cats from a distance of about 3 feet and that is really cool. They will lay there and stare at you and yawn to show off their teeth. It is fascinating to be so close to such huge animals. Sometimes you get to see the animals swimming in their enclosure pools or playing with their toys. A few times I have seen the cats putting on a little show for the crowd. The facilities are nice and the cats are well taken care of. Your visit helps to fund the rescue.

Best ever. The owner and the volunteers and staff should be highly commended for saving and treating these animals with love and affection. PLEASE DONATE 9.21, AS DONARS ARE MATCHING.

First time visiting today and it was amazing. The cats are so well cared for. Their enclosures are clean and the animals look really healthy. Our tour guide today was so knowledgeable and really cared about the cats. I cant wait to go again.Amazing place! There are so many lions, tigers. leopards, bobcats..... White tiger- beautiful. Never been close to them like that.

Amazing the work they have done with the rescued cats. Thank you.
