[FEL-L] fund-raiser to transport two tigers to the EFRC

[Lynn Culver]

The Feline Conservation Federation is raising funds to cover the cost of transporting two tigers from Ohio to the Exotic Feline Refuge Center, in Indiana. 

 

The tiger owner is recently widowed, and faces financial, medical and legal problems. She is unable to provide the kind of care these great cats require. Her neighbors are complaining. The community is considering a ban law. There is an urgent need to relocate this pair of nine-year-old tigers and a cougar to a safe home. 

 

Evelyn Shaw, FCF Legislative Director, has been working with the owner and the community officials to address both the welfare of the felines and the concerns of the community. 

 

Carol Bohning, FCF Conservation and Education director, has agreed to provide refuge for the cougar at her Butternut Wildlife Sanctuary.

 

The Exotic Feline Rescue Center has agreed to provide permanent refuge for the two tigers, providing funds to cover the transport can be raised. The FCF has assured reimbursement to Joe, and is now asking the feline community to help raise the funds to cover transportation costs estimated to reach $2,000.

 

Donations can be mailed to the FCF treasurer at: 3310 Remington Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46227 and mark it Tiger Transport Fund. This will insure that your donation goes towards transporting these tigers to a safe haven. 



Donors who give $25.00 or more will receive a thank you DVD of Cougar Development.  



The FCF web site is set up to receive Paypal donations too - on our home page NEWS section we cover the Tiger Rescue Project and a convenient Paypal donation button makes contributing to this cause quick and easy. 

 

Second, you can shop at the Tiger Transport E-Bay fundraiser store. All items listed are donated by FCF members and all funds generated go to pay for the transport of these tigers to the EFRC.
