Money donations for Our Shelter

Why Give Dollars over supplies?

First, any donation is wonderful. Seriously.

While supplies are always welcome (food, litter, etc.), money helps us pay our medical supplies, our veterinarian bills, and heck even the water bill for our felines. One method is to stop in during open hours or mail a check to us at:

Friends of Companion Animals

2532 N. Dixie Hwy.

Monroe, MI 48162

Small Contributions Make a Big Difference

How you can help Our Homeless Cat Shelter

Friends of Companion Animals is more than just a cat shelter in Monroe. It’s an all-volunteer organization that is passionate about helping companion animals. If you would like to help us reach our goals, there are many different ways you can help. Sometimes it’s monetary and at others it’s a few hours of your time each week. Check out a few of the options below, along with our list of most needed physical items. Plus, first time Chewy customers can use the link below and our organization gets $15 with no cost to you!

Shop from our Wish List for supplies that we need on a regular basis as well as a few extras. Many of the items you’ll see here come in assorted varieties but Purina Brands are the ones we use the most. But remember all donations are always appreciated.


VOLUNTEER

Volunteers assist with cleaning, feeding, and socializing cats and kittens, as well as provide assistance with our resale store operations.You can download an application here: FoCA Volunteer Application.

FOSTER

We need foster homes for orphan kittens, moms with kittens, and adult cats needing short -term medical treatment. It’s a great opportunity to care for animals without the long-term commitment.

BARN CATS

Barn cats are working animals and when you are providing shelter, food and water to a feral cat they in turn provide years of cost-effective rodent control. If you don’t need one please spread the word to other social media groups.

Givebutter Fundraisers

FOCA has several different fundraisers based on different projects. If you’d like to contribute to any of them just click the link below.

FYI: Our platform Givebutter requests tips, which keeps this power fundraising software affordable for groups like us, so please tip. But don’t feel pressured. You can opt out by clicking the down arrow at ‘Add a tip to support Givebutter’.  Pick ‘other’ so it reads ‘0″. 

  • Main Giving Fund

  • FOCA is an all volunteer organization so that means everything you donate goes back into the care and upkeep of the shelter and the felines we rescue. Consider making a donation today.

  • Hoarding Fund

  •  Trying to raise funds after starting a hoarding case can be problematic. By having this fund now it provides FOCA with monetary donations for spay/neuter and medical treatments which is often required immediately when so many are living together. 

  • Monroe MI TNR Fund

  • FOCA is raising funds so we are able to take on more tnr projects for people around the community. Perhaps you live in an area our teams are working in right now. Maybe you just realize the way to stop shelter overcrowding is TNR so you want to donate. Whatever the reason it’s appreciated.

  • FOCA Spay/neuter Fund

  • FOCA’s spay / neuter fund helps us off set our cost of adoption by helping us pay to end the cycle of unwanted litters. Our long term goal is  to open the area’s first low-cost spay/neuter clinic for Monroe County residents who want to control their colonies.

  • Emergency Medical Fund

  • FOCA is raising funds to help those felines who come to us who require more help than just food and lodging. That’s where the emergency medical fund comes in and there’s more cases than you think.
