About Us

About Our Rescue

We are a non-profit, no-kill, all volunteer rescue that formed in late 2011 when a group of acquaintances responded to a call for help with a hoarding situation.  Over 100 cats were rescued and brought to our hastily acquired shelter located on the near west side of Cleveland.  Most of the original cats have found forever homes, but we have not stopped helping new cats in need.

In 2021, Muttley Crue Rescue CLE joined Tails. Our collaboration is a natural fit as we use the same veterinarians, have some foster home/volunteer overlap, have more opportunities to host fundraisers & adoption events, combine administrative duties, and have the same mission – to help as many animals as we can.

Shamus

Shamus is one of the many FIV+ kitties that Tails has found homes for over the past several years!

Oriole

Joe is just one of the hundreds of stray kittens we will adopt out each year!
