Adopt a Tabby in Tennessee

Tabby cats aren't a breed but a coat pattern — those distinctive stripes, dots, and swirls. Tabbies are the most common cats in shelters and come in every personality type. Their prevalence in rescue means you'll find the perfect match.

Tennessee's rescue cat population is substantial, with active TNR and adoption work across Nashville, Memphis, and Knoxville. Adoptable cats are abundant year-round.
