    Love love love this thrift store! It is so much more organized and doesn't smell yucky like so Many others. The staff is incredibly friendly. I've also adopted animals from this rescue as well. They are very caring and give the best care to their fosters.

    Foster Army Animal Rescue Thrift Store is a wonderful shop with a "thriftique" vibe. There are both items which could be found in an antique store, as well as some basic items at a bargain price. If you sign up for the email, you are notified what will be on sale the next day. There are pet items for sale, and several days a month there are adoption events. Yes, there is no public restroom but if you ask, the person at the register will direct you to nearby shops which do have public restrooms, including one shop just behind FAAR. Do go in and check out the shop as the proceeds go towards the care of animals rescued from Animal Services.

    I ventured into the first Foster Army Animal Rescue Thrift Store years ago. It was the best thing I could have ever done. I have since shopped the store, fostered rescues, adopted from them, and volunteered inside the thrift store, as well as at special events. If you haven't stopped by, I encourage you to do so. Get on the email list. Follow them on Facebook and Instagram. Find out about upcoming sales and special events. Stop by an adoption event and visit with the animals. You don't have to take one home, but you'll probably want to. Don't wait! Stop by for some guilt free shopping. Your purchase helps save lives.

    It's a cute layout :)

    Ask the Community - Foster Army Animal Rescue

    Do you accept cat food? I have a variety of wet food and 2 bags of dry (one just opened), and licking treats. Last Sunday I had to accompany sweet stray to vet for Euthanasia as had become very ill with enlarged Kidneys, maybe was poisoned? Sad!

    Thank you for being there with that poor baby until the end. I'm sure you helped comfort this sweet soul. We would love to have unopened and unexpired food donated (we cannot take open bags). Thank you for thinking of us!

    Do you accept furniture donations with pick up?

    Unfortunately, the store has limited space, and we are unable to accept large furniture items. We are also unable to do pick-ups. We do apologize for the inconvenience.

    If I donate my clothes here, will I get a tax deductible receipt?

    Yes! We are a 501c3 Charitable organization. Just ask for a tax receipt at the front desk. Thank you for your donation! 3711 Central Ave, next to Weinerschnitzel.

    Will i be able to volunteer during the summer?

    Absolutely. There are so many volunteer opportunities available inside the thrift store, as well as outside at adoption events, fundraisers, special events, etc

Mindy provided a very personable, warm and extremely responsive service, made every effort to respond to my inquiry on Adopt-A-Pet and approving my application as well as just answering my questions and chatting with me about my potential cat baby's personality traits and his background story. She responded to emails as late as 11PM on a weekend and her demeanor was always welcoming and reassuring, like an old, caring friend. Mindy's words and actions convey that she truly truly love all of her rescued cat babies and she only wants what's best for them and she works extremely hard to find them good homes. I was very sad that neither cat babies from her rescue matched the particular personality I was looking for (I was trying to fill this big hole in my heart with the tragic loss of a stray cat named Cookie I cared for) and I really wished that given all the hard work she and her daughter put into, I'd adopt either Teddy or Khabib. Despite these big, affectionate sweet boys were not the best match I was searching for, I don't think any less of them, I sincerely hope they will find their forever home they deserve and I cannot be more grateful for Mindy's time, patience and understanding she's extended me and my family. If I had more capacity for an additional cat baby in the future after finding THE ONE, Mindy and her rescue is the first place I'd check out. If you are also searching for your feline soulmate, please look no further!!

I was even more upset when I get the notification via text message, that they would not allow me to adopt Cookies because I said we would "Declaw" if he started scratching or getting aggressive....I didn't even know what that meant...Again, I was pissed... We were messaging back and forth for well over 30 minutes and they explained to me what declawing was, and why it was bad for cats.
