It's National Action Week for Animals (Aug 24โ€“29)! This week, take action for pets right here in Middle Tennessee โ€” donate to People For Animals or volunteer with PFA and help us keep spay/neuter assistance available for families who need it.

People For Animals โ€” Celebrating 40 Years

Since 1986, speaking for those who can't speak for themselves.

Thanks to the support of our generous donors and volunteers, over the last 40 years, PFA was able to help over 46,125 animals get spayed or neutered. Donate or volunteer to help us increase our impact even more.

Spay/Neuter Assistance

PFA offers spay/neuter assistance to those pet owners and cat colony caretakers who qualify financially. We have participating veterinary clinics in Bedford, Dickson, Lawrence, Lewis, Marshall, Montgomery, Perry and Robertson Counties. For assistance, call the PFA hotline at 615-794-8925 and leave a message. If you are a Lawrence County resident, call 931-852-4907. A PFA volunteer will return your call.

Partner Organizations

PFA is pleased to collaborate with these partner groups to serve three counties: Cheatham County Paws, Humane Society of Dickson County, and Friends of Lawrence County Animals.

Happy dogs and cats โ€” our community's beloved pets

Why Spay/Neuter?

PFA's first priority is to reduce birth rates by providing assistance to pet owners needing help in getting the spay/neuter surgery done.

Why Adopt?

Shelter animals aren't damaged, they just need a home! Unwanted Puppies and Kittens eventually wind up in shelters, if they are lucky. National figures indicate that on average, half of the animals in shelters are euthanized for lack of good homes. Get more info here.
