Subject: Majority of people signing Goathouse anti-gun petition do NOT even live in Chatham County
How bogus!
Looking through the their on-line petition, I noticed that the majority of people signing the Goathouse anti-gun petition do NOT even live in Chatham County
So the cra cra cat lady is recruiting people from outside Chatham county to support her “cause” while most people in Chatham County do not support her.
She claims that the gun range does not allow her to her a big fundraise. Question? Did she bother to ask the gun range owner not to have any firing during the period of the fundraise? Doubt it. Has she asked any of the 5,000 people she claimed who signed her petition to donate money? Doubt it. If each one of those petition signers donated $100 each she would have half a million dollars.
She forgets that she lives in an unzoned area of the county. The real question is would her cat santuary even be allowed in a zoned area?
With the unsafe, unhealthy and unsanitary conditions that have been exposed at the Goathouse Cat Refuge, should this place even continue to operate? Doubt it.
We might just have to start an anti-Goathouse petition going.

Interviews with current and former volunteers of the refuge, former board members and veterinarians who have treated Goathouse cats—plus a review of emails and medical records—paint a considerably different picture of the refuge.
That picture is one in which animals are sick and stressed from overcrowding. Current and former volunteers and medical professionals say Scarpa is covering up problems at the Goathouse, and the board of directors of the nonprofit has done little to address them.
Nearly all of the sources emphasized they believe Scarpa has lost control, and that problems documented within the last three years have escalated and continue unabated.
In an interview with INDY Week, Scarpa denied many of the allegations leveled against her and justified others, including the charge that she asks volunteers to sign a code of conduct prohibiting them from publicly criticizing the Goathouse without speaking to her first.
