From the Wikipedia article
The Cat Survival Trust was an animal sanctuary in Welwyn, Hertfordshire, England. The site was founded by Terrence Moore in 1976. It did not have a zoo licence and was only open for members and schools. Concerns grew about visitor safety and animal welfare. In 2024, Moore was convicted of animal welfare charges and banned from keeping animals for five years. Five of his 28 animals were euthanised, and the others were rehomed.
