Friends of Attleboro Animal Shelter
Our Mission
The Friends of the Attleboro Animal Shelter (FAAS) is an all-volunteer organization dedicated to nurturing the animal-human bond and creating a community where our relationship with companion animals is guided by compassion.
Why We Are Here
We are deeply committed to reducing the number of unwanted animals in our community through spay and neuter programs, low-cost vaccination clinics, and micro-chipping events. By fostering awareness and promoting responsible pet ownership, we aim to ensure the security and happiness of companion animals for future generations.
How We Care
As an all-volunteer team, we donate our time and hearts to the cats and dogs in Attleboro, providing care and a safe environment until they find their forever families. We rely on the support of our community, offering an in-depth training program for those interested in volunteering, fostering, or helping with the daily tasks that keep our shelter running.
Finding Your Perfect Companion
Each year, we successfully place hundreds of animals in loving homes by taking the time to truly understand both the individual needs of our pets and the lifestyles of our potential adopters. Our thoughtful, personalized adoption process—which includes meet-and-greets and home visits—ensures that every animal finds a family that will exceed their needs for a lifetime. We believe that second-hand animals make first-class pets, and we are here to help you find your new best friend.
Connect With Us
Are you ready to open your heart and home? We invite you to view our adoptable cats and dogs on our website, or stop by the shelter during our public hours to meet the furry friends currently waiting for their second chance.
