Friends of Animals
Friends of Animals (FoA) is a non-profit international animal advocacy organization, established in New York City in 1957, working to free animals around the world from cruelty and institutionalized exploitation.〔 The organization's headquarters is in Darien, Connecticut, with additional offices in New York and Denver, Colorado.〔
==Founding==
The organization was founded by Alice Herrington in 1956, to protect cats and dogs. "To that end it offered low-cost spaying and neutering services to cut down the number of strays across the country. The organization eventually built its own clinic for this in Neptune, N.J."〔("Alice Herrington, 75, Founder Of Friends of Animals, Is Dead" ), Wolfgang Saxon, New York Times, April 28, 1994.〕 The organization states that it has assisted in more than 2.5 million spay/neuter procedures.〔
The organization soon widened its activities to preserve animals in general, including wildlife, marine mammals and zoo animals. Ms. Herrington led the organization until retiring in 1986.〔 The current president is Priscilla Feral.〔
