Our Mission

WORKING FOR JACKSON COUNTY'S PEOPLE AND PETS IS OUR MISSION! FJCAS is dedicated to the animals of Jackson County, TN. We are a foster-based rescue organization offering low-cost spay/neuter services, community pet food programs and pet adoption while we seek to build a shelter for abandoned animals within Jackson County. We work to tackle the needs of animals in our community from every angle: To ADOPT out homeless, hurting animals into permanent, loving homes; to BUILD a shelter to care for homeless animals until they find forever families; to create a FOSTER network of safe, temporary care while we work toward a shelter; to FEED PETS IN NEED, keeping animals in their own good homes by helping owners financially; and to SPAY/NEUTER at a deep discount to owners (including vaccines), reducing the number of unwanted dogs and cats in Jackson County while helping keep our County's pets healthy.

Adoption Policy

Pets are made available for adoption after they are spayed/neutered, fully vetted/vaccinated, and assessed for personality and behavioral traits. When potential adopters fill out the application, we gather information about their lifestyle, home environment, fenced yard, activity level, other pets and children in the household, personal goals for adopting a pet, and more. It is essential to make the best possible match between an adopter and a pet - each must meet the other's needs. Finally, adopters must pass all reference checks and a home inspection.
