Our Featured Pet...
Purrrrrrr! My name is Ginny and I am a very lucky cat! I was found in a garage with my new born kittens. I was very scared and I wasn't sure what to think of strangers. The homeowners were nice enough to care for me and my kittens until Rescued Tails could take all of us. My kittens have found wonderful new homes and now I am waiting to find mine. I am a very sweet, affectionate cat, and I would melt your heart if you came to meet me - please come soon! You can view my picture if you click on "Adoptabe Pet List"

Join Us For Our Adoption Days!

We do not bring all of our animals to each adoption day, so make sure to contact us a day or two prior to our adoption day to find out if the animal you are interested in will be at the location. We hope to see you at our next Adoption Day with our furry friends looking for their forever homes. We currently have cats and kittens for adoption at the Luv-a-Pet Center at the Minneapolis Petsmart.

Who We Are
Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary is a non-profit, all volunteer organization dedicated to rescuing, caring for and placing homeless animals. We promote positive people / animal relationships through our adoption and educational programs advocating humane treatment of all animals, including the importance of spaying and neutering. Some of the animals that come to Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary are older, sick or have suffered from severe neglect or cruelty. We value the life of each companion animal and provide a permanent safe haven for animals as needed. At the sanctuary we work to rehabilitate companion animals that need additional training and time and then attempt to place them in appropriate homes. If we should ever place an animal that is not succeeding in a home environment then we will gladly take them into our hearts and care for them. These animals can live their lives at Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary and never again be hungry, alone or in pain. Our sanctuary is located in Shell Lake, Wisconsin, and most of our foster homes are located in the Twin Cities Metro area of Minnesota.An Easy Way To Help!

News
We did it! We have completed the first phase of the sanctuary. Our new dog building has finally been completed and the building has six doggie apartments (the walls are made from 100% recycled material!) . Each apartment is furnished with rugs, a bed, a doggie door to an outside yard and of course - toys!! We have two HUGE grassy play yards that our four-legged friends can romp and roll around in and chase their favorite toy. The dogs appear to be enjoying their new-found freedoms. A huge THANK YOU to the Lawson Family Fund for helping to make the dream come true. And thank you to everyone who has helped and given us support in so many ways - we are truly grateful. If you would like to be part of this exciting endeavor, we are currently in need of donations for our next building. All donations are tax deductible under IRS Code Sec. 501 (c)(3). If you would like to help us in our efforts please call or e-mail us, or you can simply mail in a donation to:Rescued Tails

Adopting a friend
Welcoming a pet into your home is a commitment of time, patience, money and love. You should think very carefully and do your research before adopting any animal. Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary spays / neuters all companion animals before adoption. All animals are vaccinated, dewormed, heartworm tested (dogs), feline leukemia tested and microchipped. If you find an animal that you are interested in on our web site please call, or e-mail us, and we will gladly tell you more about that special animal. Our experienced volunteers will help you select a companion animal that will fit your personality and lifestyle. We want you to experience a rewarding, lifetime relationship with your new companion. If you find a furry friend you wish to adopt you will fill out an adoption application and then a home visit will be set up. At the time of adoption you will fill out an adoption contract and pay the adoption fee.
Foster Homes Needed!!
If you are not able to adopt an animal at this time, but would like to help animals, we have many opportunities for you. We are always in need of FOSTER HOMES. Our wonderful foster home volunteers enable us to literally save the lives of more animals - without our foster homes most of these animals would not be alive. It is a very rewarding experience to take in, and care for, a frightened abandoned animal and watch that animal grow in confidence and blossom into a wonderful companion pet. Please let us know if you would be willing to help save the life of a homeless animal by taking the animal into your home and heart and providing much needed foster care - we would be more than happy to tell you more - just give us a call or e-mail.Sponsor A Special Friend
We also need caring individuals to help sponsor our animals. The financial cost to care for our animals is growing every day, and we need your support. If you find a furry friend on our web site that you would like to sponsor just let us know. All of our generous sponsors receive a color photo and information about their chosen animal. We also have other volunteer opportunities. If you would like to find out more simply e-mail us or give us a call. On behalf of all the animals - a big THANK YOU for your generous support!Come Visit Us!
Please call or e-mail us and we will gladly set up a time for you to visit the sanctuary. Many of our animals are in foster homes and can be seen at one of our adoption days at the Mpls. Petsmart. Our sanctuary is located in Shell Lake, Wisconsin, and most of our foster homes are located in the Twin Cities Metro area of Minnesota.Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary will, at times, help someone in need of re-homing an animal. We will list that animal on our web site as a "Courtesy Listing". These animals are not in our rescue program and have not been evaluated by us. Rescued Tails Animal Sanctuary makes no representations and expressly disclaims any and all liability as to the temperament, health, or other characteristic of Courtesy Listing animals. Courtesy Listings are private adoptions processed through current owners. We will often assist in the process.
