    PEACE, LOVE AND ANIMALS! it can happen. Safaris is OPEN to the Public every Saturday & Sunday 12 noon to 5pm, come play!!!!!
    What is man without the beasts? If all the beasts were gone, man would die from a great loneliness of spirit. For whatever happens to the beasts, soon happens to man. All things are connected.

    Do something profound with your life! MAKE A DIFFERENCE. FIND A PASSION...OR TWO. SAFARI'S SANCTUARY is a true sanctuary. Created for the animals, but became for people too. People come to visit, and leave with an unforgettable experience. Many come volunteer to help the animals, and find it has helped them just as much. Some of our animals are rescues, although we purchase many of them as well. i love this guy..

  • Music

    I LOVE ROCK & ROLLL!!! Alternative! No country... eeeeek, no depressing country, ran over my dog, grandma died, KILLED MY VOLUNTEERS, husband left me, bla bla bla - I'd rather have head banging Metallica, or old rock Motley Crue, Guns n Roses, even slower rock like Elton John, and Queen... just NO Country! oooh depressing.

  • Movies

    Gory scary stuff... Twilight!! Interview with a Vampire, Silence of the Lambs, to Pirates of the Caribbean, Gladiator... Rocky Horror Tulsa Style...if you haven't seen their live production HERE Tulsa PAC every October... they are fabulous! incredible! the most entertaining show I've been to in quite a while. Well since the Lion King production.

  • Television

    Safari's takes an animal to Channel 2 KJRH every Monday for their Midday show... here's some of the critters we've taken...

  • Books

    Don't have time to read, but when I do.... Stephenie Meyer! Laurell K Hamilton, Christine Feehan, Anne Rice (vampire stuff).... I'd be a vampire if i could. You know -I could offer them a taste of the wild life, they could give me strength and immortality - - I could rescue animals FOREVER! and I DO believe that vampirism is a known CURE FOR M.S.-- wow what a thought.

About me:

Animal lover, soft heart, gets taken advantage of because I try to "save" everyone and everything! Done with that, animal rescue only! No more zookeeper wannabees who just need keys for their ego... show me what you got -if you wanna volunteer. RESCUE ANIMALS, SAVE LIVES= SERENITY PEACE AAAHHHH...I'm an advocate against ANIMAL CRUELTY and a woman with MS, fighting against MS. Former model, starved myself for beauty and to make men happy. Ended up with Multiple Sclerosis, thought my life was over. Then INSPIRATION hit me, thought, I love animals, my soul and heart beats for the animals. I had a bobcat for a pet -illegally. Thought, I'm gonna make this right. Sold my house in Tulsa, and moved to the country to save my soul!.... while saving animals lives. Now I live for animals. They love me old(er), not so perfect (ok chubby), and animal love is truly unconditional...

As Brigitte Bardot said " I gave my youth and beauty to men, now I choose to give my love and wisdom to animals". I love that!!! It is sooooo me. If you love animals, and haven't been to Safari's (my zoo), you haven't lived. You actually get to KNOW every animal, they are so smart, beautiful, and each one has a distinct personality. You will never get the feeling of safely "knowing" a tiger many other places in the WORLD. Check us out at www.safarissanctuary.org - and DONT use mapquest to find me -you'll never get here that way!! I used to race cars (champion by the way), dirt raced and road raced. Used to model (all cheesy bikini, fashion stuff- it traveled me all over -it was fun, but now old news.) Started Safaris in 1995 with a handful of critters -and now have over 200! Married to a perfect husband - finally! Animals will always be my relaxation, my love, my everything. Animals always tell the truth, love you unconditionally, and never get tired of hearing you chatter. :)

You know, I have a new sense of WHY I'M HERE... WHY I've been dealt the cards I have. WHY WHY WHY... I've asked that ALOT. I just want to be there to help. Share some of my experiences (and I've had alot!). And maybe help animals and nice humans.... as the sign on my Safaris front gate says " If all beasts were gone, man would die of great loneliness of spirit. For we are all connected." THE CIRCLE OF LIFE... WE ALL MUST WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THIS WHOLE THINK CALLED LIFE WORK... I HELP THE ANIMALS, THINKING I'M DOING SUCH A GRAND THING, WHEN THEY HAVE ACTUALLY SAVED ME. HOW IRONIC?! ..

New BEAR habitat

Just released Safaris Black Bears to their new habitat Saturday June 13, 2009.



Slideshow

Who I'd like to meet:

People who MAKE a DIFFERENCE. Wanna volunteer? Make a difference! Call us! No drama, no negativity, no squatters or leaches. Just plain old animal lovers. Oprah is inspirational. Even Ellen. People who use the opportunities they have to share what they believe in, whats in their hearts. Not what people told them they "should" believe in.... what deep down inside tell you to do. I've finally started listening to that voice, and I've found a true inner peace, it's surreal. Love to meet REAL people, not people who smile and love you to your face, then chatter behind your back... I'm a big girl, if there's something you don't like, tell me -not everyone else. Love to meet people who love animals, and want to work with them. I'LL TEACH YOU TO BE A ZOOKEEPER -IF YOU WANNA GET DIRTY. SAFARIS would love to meet grant writers, fund raisers, welders, plumbers, electricians, & builders -who have spare time! :) NEW NOTE: SEEKING LEGACY. SOMEONE WHO LOVES ANIMALS TO THE POINT OF OBSESSION, NOT AFRAID OF WORK, DIRT, & POOP. WORK IS PRETTY MUCH 24/7/365. BUT NOT JUST ANIMALS, HAS TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO PEOPLE TOO-EDUCATIONAL PROMOTIONAL... NEEDS TO HAVE THEIR OWN INCOME, AND BE ABLE TO DEDICATE THE NEXT 20 YEARS TO RESCUE AND SAVING ANIMALS LIVES. THIS SANCTUARY CANT STOP WITH ME. DO YOU HAVE IT IN YOU? ITS NOT A MONEY MAKER, NOT AN EGO THING, ITS A LOVE OF ANIMALS FROM THE HEART DEEP WITHIN. A COMMITMENT, SOME SAY A SENTENCE AFTER 10 YEARS :) BUT YOU CANT JUST QUIT, YOU CANT JUST TAKE A WEEKEND OFF, YOU CANT GIVE UP. TRUE COMMITMENT. NO DIVORCE OF THE ANIMALS WHO NEED YOU, RELY ON YOU, LOVE YOU.
