Frederick Friends of Our County Animal Shelter

Our mission is to support and facilitate FCAC's lifesaving work by providing the resources to:

• treat and rehabilitate animals with medical and behavioral needs who might otherwise have to be humanely euthanized;

  
  

• enrich the shelter environment and reduce the amount of time any animal stays in the shelter, minimizing the chance for new behavior or health problems to develop;

  
  

• recruit volunteers and foster care providers who are able to work with special needs animals;

  
  

• reduce the homeless pet population by supporting and facilitating the spaying and neutering of companion animals; and

  
  

• help families keep the pets they have by providing the resources to help them resolve common behavior problems and find pet-friendly housing.
