Friends of Jackson County Animal Shelter Pets

Who We Are:A group of volunteers in Jackson County, MS dedicated to the mission of saving animal’s lives at the Jackson County Animal Shelter. We are a 501c3 Non-profit organization incorporated in the state of Mississippi. Mission Statement:• To assist Jackson County Animal Shelter with funds, food, supplies, shelter improvements, fostering and volunteerism.• To assist Jackson County Animal Shelter in securing good, reliable adoptive families for animals through social networking, transport to other states and local adoption events. • To educate the public on the importance of spay and neuter laws, animal protection laws and pet owner responsibility. How You Can Help:We always need responsible foster families; we cannot pull animals from the local shelter unless we have safe, reliable foster homes for them to go to for training, medications, spay and neuter hold and quarantine for transports. We work in conjunction with local and out of state Rescue organizations to save as many animals as possible through this fostering, adoption and transport program.Financially, we need funds for supplies, vet care and medicines, shelter pull fees and subsidizing transports to other states. Future projects include possible upgrades to the shelter to help reduce the spread of disease, increase animal capacity and thereby reduce euthanasia rates. We are also working on how to implement and fund low cost spay and neuter programs, micro-chipping, an adoption sponsorship fund and other life saving ideas.

Meet Cookie Nugget

  Cookie Nugget is curious, playful and a delightful kitty. She is vocal and greets her human companion with an adorable "chirp" as she is happy to see you! Cookie travels through the house with soft "meows". She relishes being held, pampered and fussed over. Cookie's favorite spot to nap is the top of a cat tree; a window view is favored. She will be shy and wary in a new environment but should warm up quickly. Cookie's ideal home is with an individual, couple or family with cat suave children. She loves people. Cookie should do well with other cats; she chases and wrestles with her kitty buddies. Cookie is curious about dogs and should be okay with a cat-friendly dog. She is a brown patched tabby with hazel eyes. As of January 2023, Cookie Nugget is 8 months old. Friends of Jackson County Animal Shelter Pets (FJCASP) is a foster-based rescue for dogs and cats. All pets are in a home environment cared for by a foster person who provides temporary care until the pet can be placed in a permanent home. Friends of Jackson County is an all-volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization. If interested in meeting this kitty, you can find an online adoption application at     https://fjcasp.wufoo.com/forms/adoption-application/       adoption fees cover spay/neuter, vaccinations, wormers and preventatives and range from $50-$70. You can help save a life by fostering a cat for FJCASP.
