Revelation Gardens was founded in 2018 as a no-kill, 501c3 non profit cat and dog sanctuary serving west Tennessee
We currently care for 85 rescued cats and dogs, many with special needs ranging from medical issues to behavioral concerns
We are Christian based and strive to help our rescues heal from their difficult pasts.
Revelation 21:4, “He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death, or mourning or crying or pain for the old order of things has passed away.”
Our services are provided to all persons
without regard to race, color, or national origin, *age or *disability
*as long as the persons are capable of caring for an animal if the service is an adoption
We are volunteer run and rely 100% on donations and grants to sustain our work.
Our rescues live in a home-like environment and are free roaming (non crated). They enjoy time on catios (enclosed patios), socialization, and enrichment activities. We strive to give them the best life possible until their perfect home and human is found. We work diligently to match adopters with the right cat or dog. It’s so important to match energy level, personality and lifestyle so our adoptions are a life-long fit!
