Friends of the Shelter Foundation

Friends of the Shelter Foundation We are a foster-based non-profit dog and cat rescue in central Oklahoma dedicated to helping rural O We're also the official Rottweiler rescue for the state.

Our foster-based rescue (no facility) focuses on saving all breeds of dogs and cats, mixed or purebred, that are in need in Oklahoma rural shelters. All of the animals in our care live in foster homes with families so they can learn basic training and manners. Every pet is spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped and kept on monthly flea, tick and heartworm preventative. Many of t

he pets we rescue are medical cases, and that can get expensive at times but we never turn a pet away if we know a little TLC and Vet care can save its life. Our mission is to save the ones that would never set foot outside the walls of a shelter: those that are sick, injured or overlooked due to breed discrimination, size or color.

A difficult read, but it's reality. 💔 This isn't a rescue problem, it's everyone's problem. Ask us how you can help and get involved!

I know there will be those people who become upset with me posting this . I don’t care . Keep scrolling . THIS IS THE REALITY of what is happening in our communities . Rescues and shelters can NOT keep up. This is a cat with frostbite on their paws who froze to death waiting for help . It is 14 degrees out , the shelters aren’t enough for a domesticated cat who hasn’t had to always live outside . Blankets don’t keep them warm , they kill them quicker . How many people do you think saw this cat and turned the other way hoping someone else would help or simply don’t care enough to even hope . “ I have cats I can’t bring a cat in.” So do I! If you see a cat in need tag your it ! YOU LIKELY ARE THAT CAT’S ONLY HOPE! I can’t count the help calls and messages this week alone and rarely does anyone want anything other than for me to pick a cat or cats up - Do you know what it’s like to have to say no I can’t help to as many as I have to ? Can you imagine doing everything you can every day to help as many as possibly feasible and people still being mean to you because it’s not enough because you didn’t help them right away? I have SIX cats currently on my porch … MY PORCH! I am feeding and housing them till it’s their turn. I will never catch up but I am going to die trying till my last breath. PLEASE I AM BEGGING THE COMMUNITY TO STEP UP AND DO YOUR PART- this isn’t a rescue problem this is everyone’s problem . ask me how you can help today !🥹💔

We are deeply saddened by the sudden loss of Jackson Abla, the 15 year old son of one of our beloved foster families. They "foster failed" Albus from FSF, a black and white Pit Bull mix, and he had a special bond with Jackson. Please keep his family in your thoughts during what can only be described as a huge and unexpected loss. The Abla family requested in lieu of flowers that people make a donation in Jackson's name at https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=73GXWV9KFS256 💔

Her $200 adoption fee includes spay, vaccines, deworming and microchip. She's located near Oklahoma City and we allow out of state adoptions to qualified applicants.
