Whiskers and Tails was created December 20th, 1999, and became a Missouri registered nonprofit organization in January of 2000.  We were awarded our tax-exempt status as a public charity recognized by the Internal Revenue Service in 2001. We started out as and remain to this day an ALL-Volunteer humane/human outreach and assistance nonprofit organization.   For over two decades we have helped companion animals stay at home with their families where they belong by providing the basic needs of life for both the humans and their companion animals.   To date Whiskers and Tails has provided aid to over 7,200 humans and 8,051 companion animals.
