The Latest Updates from Businesses in Bay County

BEAR CREEK FELINE CENTER

BCFC is proud to make permanent homes for nineteen exotic felines, including the three wild cats that live in the State of Florida: the Florida Panther, the Jaguarundi, and the Florida Bobcat. Additionally, BCFC makes homes to Siberian Lynx, Cougars, Mountain Lions, African Servals, and a recently rehomed Asian Leopard Cat. These cats come from sources including failed pet attempts, retired celebrities, confiscations, and most recently, an injured wild bobcat that cannot be returned into the wild.

Bear Creek Feline Center (BCFC) was founded in April 2000 by Jim and Bertie Broaddus. The couple may be remembered as Bay County broadcasters, having operated radio stations WPFM, Island 106, and 97X (then called Pirate Radio) for decades prior to “Going Wild,” quoting Jim. Broaddus is credited for MTV’s Spring Break programming aired Worldwide from PCB back in the 90s.

After Michael blew through the Panhandle four years ago, the Center was granted Big Cat Sanctuary status by the FWC, operating as one of eleven authorized feline sanctuaries in the State of Florida. The Center

is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity. Private tours are scheduled by appointment. Call (850) 722-9927 to learn more.
