A Not for Profit Humane Organization Established in 1996

Animals for Life is a humane animal shelter located in Connecticut. We adopt homeless cats and dogs into loving families. Every pet in our care receives a veterinary examination, vaccinations, and is spayed or neutered prior to adoption. If you are interested in adopting a loving pet to add to your family, please call our Adoption Hotline at (203) 267-6777. We have dogs and cats of many ages, sizes, and breeds who are awaiting adoption!
