The Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge is a big cat sanctuary located in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. The sanctuary operates as a non-profit organization that provides a forever home to big cats that have been abused, abandoned, or who are former circus or other performance cats that are now retired. retired from performing.
