About Kit Kat Alley Rescue

Our Mission & History
Kit Kat Alley Rescue Inc is a veteran-operated, volunteer-run 501(c)(3) non-profit organization located in Hohenwald, Lewis County, Tennessee. Volunteer rescue efforts began in 2018, and our official IRS 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status was granted in December 2022.
We serve Hohenwald, Lewis County, and surrounding Middle Tennessee counties by providing medical rehabilitation, foster care placement, adoptions, low-cost spay/neuter assistance, and community cat Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR). Animals in the greatest immediate need come first, regardless of age, breed, or ease of placement.
We are proud to be a Best Friends Animal Society network partner, operating independently in our local Middle Tennessee community.
