FRIENDS FOR LIFE ANIMAL RESCUE was founded in of 2001. We are a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit California corporation. It is the goal of FFL to provide a bridge for animals from homelessness or abandonment to their forever homes.

We offer the community the following services:



SPAY/NEUTER PROGRAM: stopping the births of unwanted animals by providing spay/neuter services for dogs and cats in low-income homes.


SHELTER EMERGENCY MEDICAL FUND: this program serves animals in need at the Humboldt County Animal Shelter who are suffering from illness and/or injury and have exceeded the amount of money allocated for veterinary care that the county shelter is able to provide.

HUMANE EDUCATION PROGRAM: a volunteer will come to classrooms or service organizations to discuss the FFL goal of ending animal homelessness, and what loving “forever homes” means to our community.
