Rescue FAQs

East Tennessee Alliance for animals is a small not for profit organization. We received our 501C(3) status in April of 2010. Our focus is to help educate our community regarding the importance of spay and neuter and proper care of our pets. We also serve as a stop gap to shelters so pets do not end up in a shelter. We also try to assist families who must surrender their animals due to the death of a loved one, loss of income or other life altering situations. We also help strays and abandoned pets find refuge in a new forever home.
ETAA always needs fosters, volunteers and also donations.
Chattanooga, TN and Hamilton county. If transport available, we can serve other areas pending home visits.
