Johnson City, TN

Tiny Miracles Kitten Rescue is dedicated to saving the lives of the tiniest felines. Every kitten season, thousands of orphaned or sick kittens are at risk of death, both on the streets and in animal shelters. Without a mother to care for them, human intervention, specialized care, or medical intervention, these kittens face impossible odds and often do not survive.

Tiny Miracles Kitten Rescue is on a mission to give every kitten a chance at a full life and to work towards ending the unnecessary death of neonatal kittens. We partner with local agencies to aid in relieving overburdened shelters and rescues. We rescue individual orphans in need and rescue pregnant or nursing queens with at-risk kittens. Our rescue focuses on providing specialized hands-on care to neonatal, injured, or special needs kittens by providing around-the-clock feedings and ongoing medical care. Our rescued felines never have to face harsh weather conditions or hunger while in our care. Once a kitten has overcome obstacles such as illness or malnutrition, we focus on appropriate socialization to prepare them for adoption into their forever homes.
