Animal Friends of Connecticut, Inc. is a nonprofit, no-kill shelter dedicated to the protection of animals. It is an all volunteer organization that rescues stray, abandoned, abused and handicapped animals. Pets are also rescued from local pounds when their owners cannot be located. The animals are given needed medical care, all vaccinations, and spayed or neutered, then cared for at our shelter until an appropriate placement can be found for them.
All cats are spayed/neutered and up to date on their shots if they are old enough. If interested in adopting, please call (860) 225-1339 for a phone interview.
