Pulse explores the Metroplex and beyond to find Texas locations that are, or not, worth the fuel.

BY ALANNA QUILLENThe Shorthorn senior staff

Vicky Keahey has 53 babies and counting.

But these children are furry, weigh hundreds of pounds and carry a large set of fangs and claws.

Since 1998, the former veteri-nary technician with 45 years of animal-care experience has led In-sync Exotics Wildlife Rescue and Educational Center, a 4-acre haven in Wylie, for abandoned and ne-glected ex-otic cats like tigers, lions and mountain lions.

Many of the cats in the sanctuary were a b a n d o n e d , neglected or abused by for-mer owners or breeders. The sanctu-ary works 100 percent off of donations and volunteer work. The labor and donations go toward feeding, cleaning and tending to the animals.

It all started with Tahoe, a cou-gar, that was brought in by its owner for vet care but was never claimed by her owner again. Keahey was left with the choice of euthanizing her or finding her a home. After obtaining the proper licenses and being left with another cougar to care for by the state, Keahey turned the property she owned in Wylie into a sanctuary.

“I think that because of a certain chain of events and the way I got into doing this, this is my God-calling,” she said. “I can’t stop.”

Lisa Williams, media director

and volunteer, has worked with an-imals through Hurricane Katrina relief efforts in New Orleans and seals in Greece. She came to the sanctuary two years ago to bring her skills to the cats. She calls her experience at the sanctuary “unbe-lievable.”

“It’s been unbelievably reward-ing because I feel like I’m doing something to give back to these un-believably majestic animals,” Wil-liams said. “It’s just the little bit that

I feel like I can do to help them.”

For each cat, no matter its orig-ination, the hard-ships endured have tragic simi-larities. Midas, a golden tabby tiger with a peachy golden coat and chocolate stripes, is one of only 40 to 50 in the world and has skin can-cer. Apollo, a tiger

who was seized from an under-ground breeder, came to the sanc-tuary as skin and bones and on the brink of death. Because he had lived in his own urine and feces, he suf-fered from chemical burns resulting in the loss of his fur. Shazam, a rare white lion, was brought in with an ear infection, brain parasite and legs so weak he could only drag himself with his front paws.

“Their former owners were only interested in breeding them,” Wil-liams said. “They kept them alive so they could have more and sell them.”

When the cats first arrive, the volunteers sit with them overnight

Lions, tigers and cougars, oh my!

Sheila, a lioness, was rescued with two other white tigers in July 2009. She was in poor condition when she first came in but has since regained her health.

BY WILLIAM JOHNSONThe Shorthorn senior staff

Grand Prairie is partnering with several local businesses to provide independent filmmak-ers and musicians a platform to showcase their talents.

Fall Indie Fest is a collab-orative effort in its first year, set to last from Friday to Sunday. The film and music festival will spotlight the performances of more than 35 musical acts along with screen-ings of about 40 films, trail-ers and music videos. The festival will take place the same weekend as the Austin City Limits Music Festival.

Grand Prai-rie officials es-timate a large crowd.

“I think, conservatively, we’re hoping for 3,000 in our first year,” said Amy Sprinkles, City of Grand Prairie communications director.

The Uptown Theatre in downtown Grand Prairie will host the new event. Managing director Elspeth McDonald said the theatre is excited to be the venue of choice for Fall Indie Fest. Musical performances will take place outside of the theatre, while films will be shown inside.

“This is going to be such a huge event for us,” McDonald said. “Several of our entrants are UTA students, which we’re excited about.”

Among UTA students getting involved is film sophomore Ni-

codemus Montez. He directed Dreamer, a short film. He shot the film with local actors in one day.

“It came from watching my friends who are struggling mu-sicians, and they really want to make it,” Montez said. “It’s not always easier, but at the end of the day, they’re happier for doing it.”

Art senior Daniel Mele will have two films showing this weekend, Program and The

Guardian. Pro-gram is about a set of teen-agers whose computer pro-gram is placed in the wrong hands, while The Guardian is about a man who loses his family and must

decide what to do next. Mele entered the competition on a friend’s suggestion, hoping his work would make the cut.

“I felt lucky to have a project in there,” he said.

Sprinkles said the point of Fall Indie Fest is to promote both Texas musicians and tourism in Grand Prairie. The amount of creativity put into one spot will bring a high level of energy to the city, she said.

“The thing about energy, is that it’s really contagious,” Sprinkles said.

Fall Indie Fest offers an al-ternative to the popular, but relatively more expensive Aus-tin festival. A standard day pass for Fall Indie Fest will cost $10 versus Austin’s $85. The indie

festival will place an emphasis on Texas artists.

“One of the requirements was that the films and music had to be produced by Texas filmmak-ers and the majority of a band had to come from Texas,” S&B Visionary CEO Dave Siebert said.

S&B Visionary is one of the participating businesses part-nering up with Grand Prairie to produce the event. The market-ing firm assists the city in orga-nizing events.

Among the headliners are Dallas-based acts Reverend Horton Heat and indie folk duo, Smile Smile.

BY WILLIAM JOHNSONThe Shorthorn senior staff

With the first year of his busi-ness drawing to a close, Sean Mathis said the hardest part is over and the Cowboy Style Philly’s owner is ready to expand on the business model that got him through the first year.

The idea of Cowboy Style Philly’s started four years ago at Texas Stadium where Mathis began as a chef in a Philly chees-esteak vendor before moving to Cowboys Stadium. When Mathis decided it was time to start his own independent venture, he left his job at the stadium and his career as a truck driver to pursue his goal. He said he has invested a lot into bringing the business around.

“They say the first year is the roughest,” Mathis said. “It has

been one rough year.”Cowboy Style Philly’s theme

is notable the moment a patron walks in. The interior is paint-ed to look like the inside of the Cowboys Stadium, with memo-rabilia sporadi-cally placed. Floors mimic yard lines and grass turf, while one wall bears a mural of the Metroplex sky-line featuring Cowboys Stadium and Reunion Tower.

Mathis said he plans to fin-ish additions to the shop in time for the Super Bowl. In the next month, bleachers will be placed on the “sidelines” of the restau-rant as well as more memorabilia along the walls. Wi-Fi will also

be added to the shop, along with more flat panel displays and two more video game systems, in ad-dition to the Xbox 360 he already owns.

“I want it to feel like you are actually at the game,” he said.

The menu at Cowboy Style Philly’s is also fashioned to look like a play card. The names of items on the

menu are all football related, with references to first, second and third down. Students are offered the Maverick 8 Combo providing students with a beverage, chees-esteak, and fries for $8.

As the chef, Mathis said he makes his own sauces. His expe-rience with making cheesesteaks

goes back to his first experi-ence of having an authentic cheesesteak from Philadel-phia. He said his is the flavor and authenticity he wants to bring to university students. He makes his sandwiches with a 5 ounce sirloin steak, mush-rooms, bellpeppers, onions and his secret-recipe Cowboy Cheese Sauce.

Finding a location close to the university was important to Mathis. He said he wants his business to appeal to col-lege students as a fun place. He said he has a dedicated group of regulars who are university students who come in weekly to hang out and eat.

“They were my first cus-tomers,” he said. “I’ve dedi-cated a table to them. I’ve got a lot of respect for them.”

Server Amber Irvy has worked at Cowboy Style Philly’s for the past month. She said in her time she’s noticed the familiar tone the staff has with customers and most of them are on a first name basis.

“It’s a great place to work, or to just hang out,” she said. “It’s got a great atmosphere.”

Patron Frank Mares said he comes to Cowboy Style Philly’s

almost everyday. He works next door, so the location is convenient for him as well as affordable, he said.

“I bring my wife, my kids and my homies,” he said.

Mathis said the restaurant will soon host College night on Fri-days. On those nights, trash can punch is served for $3 and keg beer will be $2. Mathis said he wants to give students a venue that’s within walking distance of the university so they don’t have to drive before or after.

As for the hardships and joys of being his own boss, Mathis noted the differences between working in the Cowboys Stadium and owning Cowboy Style Philly’s.

“I don’t have paydays any-more,” he said. “Payday for a busi-ness owner is everyday.”

to get them used to their voices and ease them into the process of the sanctuary. Williams said the cats are given proper care, medicines, nutri-tion and a tremendous amount of love. She said the amount of lessons she’s learned from the cats is im-measurable.

“It makes me much less selfish about things in my own life,” Wil-liams said. “It’s helped put things

into perspective.”Williams’ favorite cat is a lion

named Kahn, who suffered from so much neglect-related stress he chewed off the end of his tail.

“I have no qualms about putting my hand in his mouth to feed him,” Williams said. “It’s about building relationships where they trust you and you trust them.”

Williams said ideally the cats could be rehabilitated and released into the wild, but because they don’t know how to hunt or pro-tect themselves and are de-clawed and domesticated, it’s unlikely they

would survive in the wild.Visitors can visit the cats on a

self-guided tour from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. A $10 donation is encouraged. Scheduled group tours are available all week for groups of ten or more at a dis-counted price.

Williams said when the lions start to roar, the sound is almost deafening.

“You can feel it in your belly if you’re near them, the vibrations, and no matter how many times you hear it, it doesn’t get old,” she said.

Rowlett residents Nina Salinas

and her boyfriend, Don Johle, vis-ited the sanctuary Sunday because of their interest in the serval cat. Salinas said the up-close experience with the animals is overwhelming.

“You can see the paw size and their actual reactions,” she said. “It’s kind of intimidating because it’s in-your-face real as opposed to seeing them far away.”

Salinas, who walked through the self-guided tour, said the sanctuary made her feel like she wasn’t even in Texas anymore.

“It kind of brings you into their life instead of them in our world,”

she said. “It transcends you into their world, their culture. It’s very intimate. That’s what gives you the incentive to come here and help them out.”

Keahey said the sanctuary has given her an amazing purpose in life.

“My purpose is to take care of these magnificent animals,” she said. “The rewards I get in return are so amazing that there’s nothing else that can touch it.”
