Long Island Ocelot Club

Long Island Ocelot Club

The Long Island Ocelot Club (LIOC) is an organization that promotes lawful ownership and responsible management of non-domestic felines in the private sector with special emphasis on the smaller species such as ocelot, serval, bobcat, lynx, and caracal.

History

The Long Island Ocelot Club was founded in 1956 by Catherine Cisin. In 1979, the organization was incorporated as "LIOC - Endangered Species Conservation Federation." By 2002, the organization changed its name to the present "Feline Conservation Federation". A group of members split off, and re-formed the "Long Island Ocelot Club", a completely separate organization mostly focused on the smaller species.

Communication and Activities
