LifeLine's Fulton County Animal Services (FCAS) provides care for homeless animals, pet adoption services, and enforcement of the animal control laws in Fulton County, Georgia. If you are looking to adopt a dog, cat, puppy or kitten in the Atlanta area, please visit our shelter to see our wonderful pets for adoption!
LifeLine Animal Project isn’t your average animal welfare organization. We take a holistic approach to improving the standard of care for animals in Atlanta through our management of the county shelters, adoption programs, spay and neuter clinics, and community outreach efforts.
Since taking over management of Fulton and Dekalb County Animal Services in 2013, thousands of lives have been saved and adoptions have been increased by 300%!
Over 16,000 homeless animals (that's more than 40 a day!) enter our shelters each year. Our goal is to end the euthanasia of healthy and treatable pets. It is a huge, continual effort to find homes for thousands of pets. How do we do it? Read more about how we’re transforming Atlanta into a no-kill community here.
Public Rabies Vaccinations
LifeLine at Fulton County Animal Services offers $30 rabies vaccinations for pets of Fulton County residents (with identification) from Monday through Friday, 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM on a walk-in basis.
If you are in need of registering your pet after receiving the rabies vaccination and tag, view the pet licensing options.
License Your Pet
Licensing your pet is a way to insure that Animal Control Officers contact you if your pet becomes lost. Additionally, your pet's license fee helps the lost pets within out care receive shelter and medical care while waiting to be reunited with their owners.
Animal Ordinances
Thanks to efforts from members of LifeLine Animal Project, Fulton County has updated their Animal Ordinances. Important changes have been made and you can view a complete listing of the Fulton County Animal Ordinances here.
Low Cost Spay/Neuter
Spaying or neutering is one of the greatest gifts you can provide your pet, your family, and your community. These routine medical procedures not only help control pet overpopulation, but they may also prevent medical and behavioral problems from developing, allowing your pet to lead a longer, healthier and happier life.
Field Services
Fulton County Animal Control Officers enforce County animal ordinances and fight animal cruelty. Animal Control Officers are available Monday-Friday 8AM- 7PM, Saturday and Sunday 10AM - 6PM, and are on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for emergencies.
