About This Cause
Founded by shelter volunteers in December 2005, Friends of Oakland Animal Services is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to improving the quality of life for shelter animals. Our mission is to provide homes, health, and happiness for Oakland’s homeless animals. We are proud to assist Oakland’s only open-door agency, where we have the opportunity to improve the lives of the greatest number of animals. Some of our main funding areas include: -Emergency and specialized medical care; -Equipment needed to help veterinary staff better care for shelter animals on-site; -Adoption outreach and foster program support; -The creation of indoor/outdoor play areas and better animal housing; -Transportation of animals to both local and out-of-state partner rescue groups; -Tools to help with Oakland field services, including digital cameras for staff to document cruelty cases and laser thermometers to determine the temperature inside parked cars; -Community spay/neuter efforts for feral cats and owned animals.
