Causes: Animal Protection & Welfare, Animals
Mission: Friends of coos county animals, inc. Is organized exclusively for charitable purposes, and specifically to suport and enhance services for the coos county animal shelter, as well as other organizations and causes that promote animal welfare, including spay/neuter programs.
Programs: Community outreach program provides families and local animal rescue groups with financial help with spaying/neutering of their pets or possibly a colony of feral cats. We also have helped with families needing financial help for bloodwork, respiratory infections and euthanasia. Last year we helped with 225 dogs and 920 cats.
foster care and adoption program. Last year we adopted 130 dogs and 216 cats. Our organization is a foster home based group. All animals are in private homes until they have been behaviorally assessed and medically cleared. Expenses include veterinary fees, medicines and supplies. Our foster homes spend untold hours with their fosters until they are medically sound for adoption.
our mission is to help the local animal shelter with items for which the county does not budget. We give the coos county animal shelter vaccines for the dogs and cats, medications for their care and other financial help with dietary needs. Also shelter upgrades as needed.
