About Us

We are Ringtail Rescue!

Ringtail Rescue and Sanctuary is dedicated to providing compassionate care and rehabilitation for orphaned and injured wildlife in our community. We are a nonprofit organization focused on helping make the world around us a better, happier place for orphaned, abandoned and injured wildlife.

Ringtail Rescue and Sanctuary has been years in the making. Currently run by Lewis Bennett and Dana Shook, Ringtail Rescue and Sanctuary came about after the two fell in love with an abandoned raccoon back in April of 2015. Ringtail Rescue and Sancutary has saved hundreds of animals. They currently are offering a home to several animals who are not able to be released into the wild.

If you are you passionate about what we’re doing, please consider making a donation to our great cause. Your generosity will help us to serve more wildlife in our community. We thank you in advance for your generosity!

We are a registered 501C Charity

As of May 2019, Ringtail Rescue & Sanctuary is a registered nonprofit corporation/charity. Many of you know that we started with just one raccoon that we loved and lost but have grown to help hundreds of animals in North Carolina.

So innocent ❤️‍🩹

Thank you for taking those babies in. If that was your husband who met my daughter for the exchange, she wanted me to tell you that she was so impressed with how gentle he was with them. Thanks again for all you do.

How adorable is this baby? She’s very independent!! Or wants to be 🤣🤣🤣
