FOCAS (Friends of the Community Animal Society) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3), volunteer organization. Our volunteers raise funds for sick animal veterinary care, provide foster care of sick and orphaned animals, and provide community education.
If you are interested in volunteering or becoming a foster parent, call the FOCAS President or email focasrescue@yahoo.com. We are always in need of foster parents, especially to bottle feed and care for the sick ones that need special care.
OUR MISSION
The purposes of this corporation shall be:
1. To provide volunteer care and foster homes for homeless, unwanted and neglected animals in the community of Memphis, Tennessee and surrounding areas.
2. To promote responsible pet ownership, particularly in the areas of over-population (spay-neuter), pet neglect and pet abuse.
3. All animals are placed in foster homes until they are adopted.

Additional adoption info
Anyone wishing to adopt an animal must fill out an application and an adoption contract. The application is reviewed before the adoption is approved. FOCAS reserves the right to decline an adoption contract. The adoption fee (which barely covers the vet costs) is usually $60.00 for cats, and $75.00 and up for dogs. This includes up-to-date shots, testing, deworming and spay/neuter. If it was not for donations, we would not be able to spay and neuter the animals we now have in foster care. So, please keep the donations coming so we can keep spaying/neutering and rehabilitating the animals.
