FOTAS is committed to reducing the number of unwanted dogs and cats in Aiken County and thus reducing the number of animals coming into Aiken County Animal Shelter through our spay/neuter Fix-A-Pet Program.
FOTAS funds more spay/neuter surgeries for community cats and pets owned by citizens in need of financial assistance than any other nonprofit organization in Aiken County.
FOTAS collaborates with Aiken County Animal Shelter which has a Trap/Neuter/Release (TNR) program in which feral cats are fixed and then returned to field to their colony habitat.
