Cheetaro Memory Match Children's Online Game

Cheetaro the leopard was born in 1998 arrived at Big Cat Rescue in November 2003. Cheetaro the leopard was kept in a corn crib with his mate and bred constantly for cubs to sell.  They braved the New England winters of -18 degrees with the chill factor with no way to escape the sleet and snow.  They had only the shelter of the corn crib's tin roof and a box.  They braved all of it together though and at least had the company of someone who understood what they were being made to endure.  When the roadside zoo closed in 2003 the female was sold off and Cheetaro, being male and of no value, was sent to Big Cat Rescue.  Here he lays lazily in the sun on top of his cave mountain, or can hang out in his tree, but he has forever been separated from the mate he loved.  Cheetaro the leopard is one of the wiliest cats at the sanctuary, he spends hours stalking the house cats and peacocks from inside his large grassy habitat. Like all leopards, he excels at sneaking up on people when their backs are turned. And he has a particular fondness for turkey drumsticks.

The Grant Beach Neighborhood Betterment Association is a group of citizens working together to maintain and improve the quality of living in our area. We meet monthly on a regular basis to address neighborhood concerns, and encourage residents to start smaller neighborhood watch groups in their block. We believe that people should actively participate as citizens in a democracy and as neighbors in in a community. We are a group of citizens interested in working together to maintain and improve the living quality of our neighborhood, motivate the city to address our concerns, be a spawning ground for neighborhood watch programs and build a sense of community among us. Working together, there is little that cannot be done, working apart there is little that can be done.
