We are a group of volunteers who exist solely to help abandoned cats and dogs in Connecticut! It is the dream of every member that SOMEDAY we might have our own shelter and care facility for these animals, but until that time we operate on a day to day basis, helping wherever we can, whenever we are allowed to, in any way we can. We count in our members Lawyers, Engineers, Secretaries, Veterinarians, just people from all walks of life who share one common interest,

Our dogs are rescued primarily from shelters in Connecticut, and many of our cats are rescued from the streets. Our animals have either been discarded, lost, or abandoned by their former families. They may be hungry, cold, sick, injured, pregnant, or they may have lost trust in people and are frightened. We give them fresh food and water, and place them in temporary foster homes. There they are given loving care and slowly they regain trust in humans.

Some of our dogs and cats are sick or injured, and considered "unadoptable" due to the extra care they require before they are ready for adoption. We provide them with the necessary medical care they need so that they can go on to lead a happy and normal life All our animals are health and temperament screened before being adopted out to a permanent home. Our goal for each and every animal we rescue is to help them become happy and healthy, and ultimately to help them find a permanent, loving home.
