Welcome to our sanctuary.

Picture
Cat Tail Acres is a Michigan no-kill feral cat rescue. We believe all of God's living and breathing creatures deserve a right to a good life.  We have roughly 200 feral cats currently residing at our sanctuary. The majority of our cats were either set to be euthanized because they were feral, were living on the streets fending on their own, or in dangerous situations where they had to be removed for their safety.

All the cats who reside at Cat Tail Acres will do so for the remainder of their lives. They know the sanctuary as their permanent home and the feral kitties at the sanctuary have grown to love their caregivers and are quite comfortable in their surroundings. The majority of our feral residents have become friendly over time due to the trust, love and respect that we've given to each of them.  The cats are safe and will never be euthanized unless it is medically necessary to do so.

Most of our feline residents are considered "unadoptable" by today's shelter and rescue standards. We work with the rescue group, Cat Tail Kitties, so that any kittens or already socialized cats that come into our possession are immediately transferred to them to be adopted. Since most of the ferals we acquire become socialized while they are with us, we also do occasionally adopt out some of them to qualified adopters. The vast majority of the cats had run out of options and would of been euthanized by other shelters and rescue groups that cannot and will not work with a feral cat. We've made a lifetime commitment to love and care for each and every cat at Cat Tail Acres!

ANNOUNCING TWO NEW WAYS TO HELP CAT TAIL ACRES RAISE NEEDED OPERATING FUNDS AND EARN MONEY FOR YOURSELF!
Marketplace America's SHOP.COM

These days many people are shopping online, saving time, gas money, and depending upon from whom we purchase; sales tax. One of the absolute best ways to shop is at Market America's Shop.com website.  Market America is now in its 21st year of operation and is a reputable and popular way to SHOP THE STORES YOU KNOW AND TRUST, but in a smarter way that both saves you money AND earns you money!  Many of these stores have free shipping and easy pickup of your purchases at your local stores.  You can buy from over 3,000 businesses, as well as buy Market America's own highly regarded, excellent products (esp. known for their customized ISOTONIX vitamin-mineral supplements, cosmetics, pet food and care products, and "a little goes a long way" cleaning products).  We also earn more when you buy Market America’s own products.  Car rental companies, Travelocity, Expedia, and even Cruise companies are among your choices, and will earn you money.  Some of the over three thousand retailers at Shop.com are:

ACE Hardware, Apple, Auto Zone, Babies R Us, Barnes & Noble, Bath & Body Works, Best Buy, Bloomingdale’s, CVS, Dell, DSW Shoes, FTD, Game Stop (for all you video game players), FedEx, HOME DEPOT, Kay Jewelers, K-MART, Kohls, LensMart, LInens 'n Things, LOWE's, MACY's, MEIJER, Microsoft, Office Depot, Overstock.com, Penneys, PETCO, PETSMART, Sears, Staples, Toys R Us, Walgreens, and WAL-MART.

The best part is that by shopping from the comfort of your home at stores and websites you may already be using, and by exploring shop.com to find many terrific new places to shop and save, you will help Cat Tail Acres earn cash back even while you are earning cash back: a win-win for all of us!  

And it's easy....just go to shop.com/cattails  

The first time you go there you will be asked to register as a preferred customer by providing your name, address, phone, email address, and WHO REFERRED YOU.  You should enter Cat Tail Acres President Lisa Koester's email address (lakoester@hotmail.com) as the person who referred you.  That's all there is to it. Then just start shopping and saving.  (Helpful hints: you may wish to bookmark, or tab, Shop.com/cattails on your web browser's main page to make it easier to click over to the site.  Thank you!

AMAZON Associates Program for Cat Tail Acres Sanctuary

For those of you who already shop at Amazon, or for those who haven't tried it yet (no sales taxes yet), this is a terrific site for buying most everything you can imagine, and especially for books, DVDs, CDs, Video on Demand (BETTER than Netflix), Video Games, Pet Care Products, Electronics, Groceries, and even magazine subscriptions.  Cat Tail Acres Sanctuary will earn 25% of your purchase for magazines, 10% on video games, and from 2-8% on other product purchases.  

If you are already a regular Amazon customer, and esp. if you have one of their Amazon Chase Visa cards to pay for your purchases (which gives you cash back), you can still use that credit card to pay for your purchases, but you MUST NOT access Amazon's website by going through your own internet browser, and must instead access it through OUR website (CatTailAcres.com), where you will find this active icon link:

Click on the link and it will take you to Amazon where you can just proceed to make your purchases like you normally would. The link on our website will ensure that we will earn money from your shopping.
