FAAS: Who We Are
The Friends of Attleboro Animal Shelter (FAAS) is an all volunteer, non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to providing financial and volunteer support to the Attleboro Animal Shelter for the care and well-being of the hundreds of unwanted, stray and needy cats and dogs that annually pass through the shelter. On a daily basis, our volunteers provide these homeless animals with nourishment, medical treatment, affection, and most of all, help in finding a loving new home.
Each year, hundreds of abandoned companion cats and dogs looking for a second chance in life were successfully placed in loving homes through adoptions facilitated by FAAS.
FAAS works hand-in-hand with the City of Attleboro Animal Shelter. Through their cooperation, we are able to help many more animals than city funds could provide.

More than a few former Shelter residents have passed on, but we remember them with an abiding love and laughter for the joy they brought to our lives on our Rainbow Bridge page.
