Helping relieve the pet overpopulation crisis in southern Oregon.

Help FOTAS create a spay and neuter clinic for cats AND dogs in southern Oregon.

For more than 30 years, Friends of the Animals (FOTAS) has been providing volunteers to help Jackson County Animal Shelter animals get adopted faster, while improving their quality of life while they wait.

Now, we are adding an additional focus to our mission – reducing the number of animals entering shelters at all.

FOTAS has known for years that the solution to pet overpopulation is prevention. We have been strategic in our efforts to move in that direction by adding veterinary resources on our Board of Directors and in our staffing to help facilitate expansion into the new Friends of the Animals Community Spay & Neuter Clinic.

The building, previously a veterinary clinic, has been leased and we are diligently at work preparing the building, gearing up clinic staff and finalizing our service offerings.

Estimated Opening: December 2024

This is an exciting time for FOTAS as we expand our services and support.
