New Animal Sanctuary to Open in the Cass County Missouri Area

Whiskers and Tails is embarking on the huge task of gaining funds and community support to build the County's first ever Forever Home Animal Sanctuary

For years, companion animals have been euthanized, abandoned, mistreated, and ignored, due to uncaring owners and over-population. Whiskers and Tails, a small animal rescue located in Peculiar, MO plans to alleviate the problem by building the first "Forever Home Animal Sanctuary" in the Cass County, Missouri area.

The Whiskers and Tails Forever Home Sanctuary will be the first of its kind in the county and possibly the entire state. Once developed, they hope it will spread throughout the entire country. The Sanctuary will not only house dogs, cats, puppies and kittens, but also plans on working with horses, cattle, sheep, birds and a huge variety of animals that have no place to go if they are in need of being rescued.

The sanctuary will include a full service facility for the community that will assist in low cost spay/neuter, and a food pantry to help low income individuals feed their pets. It will also provide housing for unwanted animals will also help the community by providing a resource for seniors, lower income and private citizens as well as authorities who need to rescue animals from puppy and kitten mills.

Plans to create future income include a thrift store, museum, western community, low cost spay/neuter and healthcare clinic and a series of children's books. With these not-for-profit businesses and projects it hopes to make the larger part of the sanctuary self supporting. It will also depend on grants, private and community funding as well as local government assistance.

The public is being asked to help raise funds, get the word out and create volunteer/youth projects. Businesses are being asked to participate as well.
