There are but three days remaining to donate to the Nancy Hiller Ranch Cat Rescue Memorial Fund, and be entered in our raffle to win a gorgeous cover carving from Nancy’s last book, “Shop Tails,” and a copy of the book.
Ten percent of net profits from “Shop Tails” – a tribute to the many four-legged friends (and one feathered friend) whose lives were intertwined with Nancy’s – go to The Ranch Cat Rescue, in Bloomington, Ind., a non-profit run by Alison Zook that is funded solely by donations. To help Nancy’s favorite cat charity just a little more, we’re asking for $5 donations via this PayPal link (while the fundraiser is channeled through my personal account – all donations will of course go to The Ranch Cat Rescue).
Not only are you helping to support Alison’s work in Nancy’s name, with your $5 (or more) donation you’ll also be entered to win one of two fabulous prizes in a random drawing. First prize is the beautiful fiddleback Tasmanian blackwood cat carved by Australian wood artist and teacher Carol Russell for the book jacket. Second prize is the book we used as the art for the audio version of the book (which Nancy performed). The fundraiser runs through March 13; I’ll the announce winners on March 14.
Here’s that raffle donation link again. And if you’re not interested in the raffle (or after it concludes), here’s a link to support the Ranch Cat Rescue directly.

Done. Looks like your post has spurred donations – hope you make your goal.
Thank you!
Thank you for posting this again! This is a beautiful tribute to a
beautiful inspiring woman. Perhaps this could be done every year
Thank you
I’m also hopeful that we’ll find a market outside our relatively small world for “Shop Tails,” which would provide ongoing support!
I can see it adapted as a wonderful children’s book. I’m sure Nancy would have loved that.
