About FAAS:

The mission of FAAS is to shelter and care for abandoned companion animals, find them new homes, and prevent animal cruelty through education and outreach. Through a unique public-private partnership, FAAS has managed the open-intake City of Alameda Animal Shelter since 2012. With innovative programs, community partnerships, and a passionate base of volunteers and donors, each year FAAS saves on average 97% of the nearly 1,000 lost, abandoned, and homeless animals who enter the city’s shelter each year.

FAAS is committed to reaching the broader community through outreach and runs an Adoption Center at South Shore Shopping Center for cats and small animals, and Synta, a 26-foot mobile adoption and outreach vehicle. Our “Healthy Pets, Healthy People” program provides services to help people in need keep their pets and, in turn, keep those pets out of the shelter system.

FAAS also operates The Thrifty Kitty, a community thrift store where 100% of the net proceeds support our nonprofit programs.

The FAAS Medical Center provides high quality, high volume spay/neuters for shelter animals, recuse groups, and eventually low-cost services for members of the public.
