Goathouse Refuge
The Goathouse Refuge in Pittsboro, North Carolina, is a nonprofit no-kill animal sanctuary for cats that is run on a volunteer-basis. The refuge is cage-free so the cats can freely roam around within the boundaries of the property.〔Jo Singer, ("A Look at Goathouse Refuge" ), ''Petside'', January 16, 2013. Retrieved March 1, 2013.〕 Founded in 2007 by Italian-born artist Siglinda Scarpa, the refuge can hold up to 300 cats on a 16-acre farm. There is an art gallery located on the first floor of the house where Scarpa sells her handmade art such as pottery, sculptures, and cookware to help support the refuge.〔Anne Raver, ("300 Cats, Yes. Craziness, No." ), ''New York Times'', January 9, 2013. Retrieved March 1, 2013.〕
==Founding==
Siglinda Scarpa says she had issues with communication as a child, stating that “people were not seeing me, that they were talking, but never to me.”〔 It was not until her father brought a stray kitten home and placed it under her sheets that Scarpa felt she could communicate with someone.〔 The kitten was a year old when he became very ill and died. After his death, Scarpa decided to take in as many cats as possible, with the hopes of eventually creating a safe haven for cats.〔("The Goathouse Refuge Mission" ) Retrieved March 20, 2013.〕 Scarpa created the Goathouse Refuge in 2007, naming it after an old goat who came with the dilapidated plantation house and the 16 acre property. Originally, the land was just intended for her pottery studio. After the house and studio burned down Scarpa rebuilt it with plans that included a sanctuary for cats, using personal resources and proceeds from her pottery sales to make it possible.〔("A Place to Call Home" ), ''Animal Wellness'', January 31, 2012.
