Wildlife Park announces death of fishing cat

The Curraghs Wildlife Park has sadly announced that their male fishing cat, Benny, has passed away.

The average lifespan for the cats is 10-12 years old – he was 12 and a half.

Benny was diagnosed with osteoarthritis last year which he received pain relief for, but suddenly went of his food before passing away.

The park still has a female fishing cat and hopes for some younger cats to move in as they’d like to continue with this endangered species.
