FOTAS - Friends of the Animals We are always looking for volunteers who would like to work with the animals, with potential adopters, and with the public (such as education in schools).

Friends of the Animals is a 501c3 organization that improves the quality of life for animals in Southern Oregon by facilitating adoptions, medical care, education, & resources to our community. Friends of the Animals (FOTAS) provides volunteers and funding to increase pet adoption, improve the quality of life for adoptable animals, promote spay/neuter, and participate in outreach and educational activities regarding responsible pet guardianship and animal welfare. And, of course we are always looking for funding to support those programs. Tax-deductible donations may be made through our website, www.fotas.org or by mailing a check to: FOTAS, PO Box 1153, Ashland, OR 97520. Thank you!

Big news for the FOTAS Community Spay & Neuter Clinic!

🐾 Thank you, Duffield Foundation! 🐾

We're thrilled to share that FOTAS has received a Big Bet for Pets Boost Grant from the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation!

This grant supports the heart of our clinic's mission: providing affordable spay and neuter surgeries to Southern Oregon's pets, including feral and community cats. Every procedure means fewer unwanted litters, fewer animals entering crowded shelters, and a healthier, more humane community for pets and people alike.

We're deeply grateful to the Dave & Cheryl Duffield Foundation for investing in community veterinary care and helping us tackle pet overpopulation here in Southern Oregon. 💙

If you're interested, send John a message. That's all it takes to get on the list!

Happy ! Today we celebrate Sarah Davis: an all-star CVT who continually shows up for the animals of Southern Oregon and beyond. Thank you Sarah for all that you do for FOTAS and the animals we serve!

Sarah brings 13 years of veterinary medicine experience to her role as a Certified Veterinary Technician at the Friends of the Animals Community Spay & Neuter Clinic. Early in her career, the skilled veterinary technicians and veterinarians she worked alongside inspired her to earn her degree from San Juan College and become a CVT. Her favorite areas of veterinary medicine are anesthesia and surgery.

After many years in general practice, Sarah was ready for a new direction and the opportunity to make a greater impact in her community. She especially enjoys seeing the difference affordable spay and neuter services make for animals and their families, as well as the gratitude of the clients FOTAS serves. A dedicated team player, Sarah looks forward to sharing her knowledge, continuing to learn, and working with staff and volunteers to keep the clinic running smoothly and efficiently.

A lifelong Southern Oregon resident, Sarah still lives in the home where she was raised. Outside of work, she enjoys camping and fishing with her daughter, Brooklyn, as well as hiking and reading fantasy series. She also shares her home with two French Bulldogs: Junior, the love of her life, and Georgia, who Sarah jokes “has warrants in three counties and is absolutely feral.”
