EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK WE ARE ALWAYS IN NEED OF DRY(BAGGED CAT FOOD), CANNED CAT FOOD, AND CLUMPING CAT LITTER.

Not every day you ever hear about a feline sanctuary in Vincennes. Not every day you hear about the struggles felines go through.
Barbara Grannan Carie Feline Sanctuary is in the heart of Vincennes; ran by Pat and Tricia Carie, brother and sister. This sanctuary was named after their mother. Their mother was later diagnosed with cancer and had passed away in 1997. In 2016, this sanctuary became a 501 c3 non profit organization.
Here is what the facility does:
This facility helps felines with chronic illness, behavior issues, abused, abandoned, and even given second chances. This even includes Feral felines.
The support for these types of Felines are not limited but include: hospice, behavior supprt, medical care, and nutrtion support for special diets: Otherwise these felines would be euthanized without this facility support.
We are currently facing a financial challenge with our cat litter supply as our daily operating expenses total $400 per day, and we have yet to receive the freight bill for the litter. When we receive the freight bill it will be longer to wait for the litter to be delivered! We are finding out there are months between shipments that we will have to purchase our own! We urgently need assistance with everything to be honest! We do not get funding or do we get set funding yearly we are not city county or state funded
Our promise to them is to provide a safe and loving environment for the rest of their lives.
" We have establised this feline sancutary due to overwhelming response in the assisting of the communities need to help relocate felines that were abused, losing their habitat, diagnosed with FELV/FIV, and neglected. We also have several feral colonies in town we feed daily."
"We offer support out in the community for several colonies so they can survive another day; such support includes, but not limited to food and shelter. We are there regardless of the weather. Rain, snow, or ice. We were out in the past blizzard and wind for more than 18 hours; trying to make sure all colonies were safe. Some of the cats had to be brought back to the facility until the weather lessend. Finally, we are not open to the public, due to limited space. If someone wants to contact us: They can leave a message at 1-812-881-2243 or email us at bgcfelinesanctuary@yahoo.com."
"Also like to add: We dont accept surrender felines; currently we are not a surrender facility or shelter."
