Since Friends of the Animal Shelter is a 501(c)(3) Public Charity registered with the Internal Revenue Service, donations to our programs are tax deductable.
Along with St. Bernard Parish Animal Shelter, we are trying to reinstitute our pre-Katrina programs such as Spay - Neuter Intervention Programs to assist in having pets spayed or neutered.
Whether looking for a list
of low-cost spay/neuter clinics, or
are feeding stray cats, or are on a
low or fixed income, we can help.
We supply humane educational materials for local elementary classrooms and pay part or all of
the costs of pet adoptions to
resident senior citizens.
Check out our links to donate or for further information on the Shelter and
its services, pictures of our pets waiting to be adopted, fund raisers and other programs sponsored by Friends of the Animal Shelter of St. Bernard.

At Friends of the Animal Shelter of St. Bernard, we don't just talk about the problem of pet overpopulation, we are actually doing something about it. Our goal is to insure that every pet born in our parish has a permanent, responsible home. Along with our shelter, we have made measurable, substantial progress toward this goal by addressing the root causes of the problem. You can be a part of the solution, too! Join our Friends of the Animal Shelter yahoo group. and check out our Volunteer Opportunities.
Need help finding your pet after Katrina? We can help!
Hurricane Katrina completely devastated our community. Out of the destruction and heartbreak, we have had one unexpected benefit: We have volunteers helping us from around the country, but more are needed!
The St. Bernard Parish Animal Shelter and our Friends of the Animal Shelter are committed to preventing the births of unwanted pets and to find new homes for unwanted and discarded pets that are healthy and behaviorally sound as well as those that are "near adoptable" but need some medical care.
If you would like watch our progress and recovery, join our FOAS yahoo group. If you would like to actively work to help our shelter, please join Friends of the Animal Shelter of St. Bernard or click on the Volunteer Opportunities link above.
