Les Amis des Animaux is an association (charity) run entirely by volunteers, working closely with refuges, other agencies and private individuals to help the dogs and cats in most need.
We support those that require our extra care – maybe they are losing hope, old, very young, pregnant, or sick.
They are vulnerable and we are their voice; passionately and tirelessly striving to make a difference and change lives.
Our core belief is that the key to the best adoptive forever family pairing is to first place our animals within safe, experienced foster homes. Here they blossom as they relax, learn, and grow, while they are assessed and prepared for adoption. When they are ready, the right match is more important than location – be that in France or further afield.
The ‘Les Amis’ community is our strength and heart. As well as fostering, our amazing network of volunteers enables us to organise covoiturages for animal transport, fund-raise in a diverse number of ways, tell stories of and promote those animals who are in need. Our care is continuous and for as long as people need us. We pride ourselves on not only being “animal-people”, but also “people-people”!
Please join us in whatever way works for you. We invite you to browse our website to find out more about us. The collective efforts and donations are absolutely vital, and we need you.
Your donations and generosity make everything that we do possible, and all monies raised go directly to help our wonderful animals.
To allow us to rescue them when they are abandoned, to provide medical care to mend broken bones, infections, and years of neglect. In addition, we provide long term foster care for around 80 dogs and 16 cats, where they are elderly or have long-term conditions that require ongoing medication or specialist food.
2022 was an exceptional year because of the pandemic. We cared for 530 cats and dogs. You can see the numbers for last year, and how this year is going above.
