A couple hours drive from Durban in the heart of Hluhluwe, is the Emdoneni Cat Rehabilitation Center. Emdoneni prides itself on their cat breeding projects, releasing captive bred cats into the wild. African wild cat, cheetah, serval and caracal can all be found at Emdoneni. The lodge is also host to an array of wildlife namely, zebra, wildebeest, impala and nyala. Qualified guides conduct tours twice a day, with a feeding show in the late afternoon.
Guests are taken around the enclosures and taught of Emdoneni’s efforts at conserving Africa’s cats. The highlight of the tour is going inside the cheetah enclosure.
