Did you guys see the baby tigers at Centerpoint?!
(Or should it be Baby Tigers? haha)
$25 buys you 10 minutes with the most adorable baby tigers. All under the premise of helping raise money to "save the tigers". I was sucked in, told DH we should take Ben, because when will you ever get the chance to hold a tiger cub again?
Did some research, and it's a scam and a shame. It's SO tempting, and I'm sure these jerks are making a boatload doing it. I'm glad I looked into it before giving them a cent.

Re: Did you guys see the baby tigers at Centerpoint?!
That is terrible.
Ditto.
I wish tigers weren't one of the few man-eating animals; I would love to have one as a pet.
Isnt it? I'm spreading the word, because I'm sure most people wouldn't think twice about the "donation".
I know - and OMG they are so cute!
Thanks for posting this and spreading the word. This group is absolutely horrible and Centerpointe Mall repeatedly brings them back and supports this cause.If you have time, please contact Centerpointe and express your opposition. It absolutely sickens me that this group makes claims (and will blatantly lie to you) about helping these animals when instead they are treating them poorly and profiting off of them.
Sorry to rant- I'm an animal lover and situations like this really upset me.
I emailed the mall and the local news. I'm sure it wont do a bit of good, but I likely wont be shopping there again. Horrible.
