About this organization
Mission
Friends of Animals works to cultivate a respectful view of nonhuman animals, free-living and domestic. Our goal is to free animals from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation around the world.
About
Spaying and neutering program - Friends of Animals has advocated low-cost spaying and altering as the most effective means of preventing the births of unwanted dogs and cats, and their subsequent abandonment, suffering and mass killing. For 59 years, we have operated a nationwide breeding control program in the United States facilitating more than 2.7 million spay/neuter procedures. Pet owners may purchase a certificate from Friends of Animals that can be used for a routine spay or neuter surgery at any of Friends of Animals participating veterinary hospitals. This year more than 24,000 cats and dogs were neutered through our program.
