Carole Baskin, the founder of Big Cat Rescue who has been featured in Netflix’s “Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem and Madness,” is selling face coverings with her catchphrase: “Hey, all you cool cats and kittens.”
Baskin began selling the items Saturday on tread365.com to raise money to help big cats. The face coverings cost $11, and portions of the proceeds also support first responders.
Tread 365 said on its website that it has “developed reusable face masks that act as simple barriers for your face.”
The face coverings feature Baskin’s signature phrase above a whiskered feline that sports a Cheshire cat look. The masks are available in black or leopard print.
