Connecticut Humane Society - Waterford Branch - CT Humane Society
A Brighter Future for Pets and People
The Connecticut Humane Society is the state’s oldest and most comprehensive animal welfare organization, dedicated to enriching the lives of families and communities through adoption services, medical care, and education. We envision a future where every companion animal finds a permanent, compassionate home and the bond between people and animals flourishes.
Our Legacy of Compassion
Founded in 1881 by Gertrude O. Lewis, our organization has spent over a century working to end animal cruelty and ensure the welfare of pets in need. As an independent nonprofit, we rely entirely on the generosity of donors to provide critical care and support to thousands of pets every year.
Care with Heart
We are dedicated to providing the pets who come through our doors the absolute best care and training during their stay. From medical rehabilitation at our specialized clinics to enrichment and behavioral support, we ensure every animal is prepared for a successful transition into their new life.
Finding Your Perfect Match
Adoption is the beginning of a joyful partnership, and our dedicated counselors are here to help you find the right match for your unique lifestyle. Because we spend significant time getting to know each pet’s personality, quirks, and needs, we are able to provide you with a comprehensive understanding of your new family member before you head home together.
Take the Next Step
Ready to meet your new best friend? We invite you to view our adoptable pets online or visit one of our locations in Newington, Waterford, or Wilton. Your journey toward a forever friendship starts today, and we look forward to helping you make a difference in a pet’s life.
