Tiny But Mighty

Kitten Lady's Guide to Saving the Most Vulnerable Felines

By: Hannah Shaw

Narrated by: Hannah Shaw

From Kitten Lady, the professional kitten rescuer, humane educator, animal advocate, and owner of the popular Instagram @kittenxlady comes the definitive book on saving the most vulnerable—and adorable—feline population: newborn kittens.

Hannah Shaw, better known as Kitten Lady, has dedicated her life to saving the tiniest felines, but one doesn't have to be a professional kitten rescuer to change—and save—lives. In Tiny but Mighty, Hannah not only outlines the dangers newborn kittens face and how she combats them, but how you can help every step of the way, from fighting feline overpopulation on the streets to fostering unweaned kittens, from combating illness to combating compassion fatigue, from finding a vet to finding the purrfect forever home. Filled with information on animal welfare, instructional guides, and personal rescue stories of kittens like Chloe, Tidbit, Hank, and Badger, Tiny but Mighty is the must-have kitten book for cat lovers, current-and-future rescuers, foster parents, activists, and advocates.

*Includes a PDF of tables and charts for kitten care and instructions on how to make a cute hat for a kitten.

Hannah ROCKS!!!

I really enjoyed this audiobook. Hannah does a fantastic job bringing her book to life and getting her point across. It was very informative and left me feeling like I too can help out kitties in my community and beyond.
You are an amazing human being, Hannah. Thank you for the inspiration.

Best cat book EVER!

I've read a LOT of cat books and when I saw that Hanna Shaw had written one I had to have it. I have followed her on YouTube and used numerous tips and procedures to help with my own foster efforts.
The thing about this book is that it is not just for people wanting to work with neonates and new kittens but for everyone who loves cats in every form. It is above all a book about hope and an enthusiastic inspiration for anyone wanting to change the way the world views cats as disposable or worse. It presents ideas for solutions as well as detailed facts for fostering or caring for the tinies. Thank you Hanna for sharing your heart with us.

a must for anyone in cat rescue, or who helps cat

I'm a little teary writing this after Chloe's story, but this is an uplifting, hopeful, and wonderful guide to helping cats and kittens.

Hannah's warm and compassionate voice just flows with love for her tiny fosters. 10/10, highly reccommend

Helpful for Pet Fosters

I love Kitten Lady! I pre ordered after hearing she had a book coming out. Very informative. I’ll be referring to this book when I’m able to foster kittens and cats in the future.

Great read

5 stars! It is great for cat lovers or those who are involved in cat rescue.
