Help save homeless pets in CT
Shelters near you need help to save more lives. Every day, dogs and cats are killed in animal shelters across Connecticut simply because they don’t have a place to call home. Together, with your help, we’re changing that.
Best Friends is working with animal welfare organizations and stakeholders statewide to save every pet who can be saved and reach no-kill through Connecticut in 2025. Your local shelter is counting on your help. Now is the time to get involved and make a lifesaving difference.
Best Friends increases transport options in Connecticut
Best Friends is working with several animal welfare organizations in Connecticut to expand our transport programs — pairing shelters and groups that have space to accept pets with shelters in parts of the country where there are too many pets looking for homes.
