Description

If you're looking to add a fuzzy ball of four-legged love and affection to your family, look no further than these animal shelters in and around Groton for a pet to take home. Across Connecticut, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — and many are located in your area. Looking to adopt a lovable new fur child? A great place to begin your search is at Fridays Rescue Foundation, where Mia the dog is waiting patiently, or another local rescue facility. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in appropriate homes. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has compiled this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. Whether you're looking for cuddles or companionship, one of these animals could be the perfect fit for your family. Click on any listing to learn more about a pet or to start the adoption process. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder. If you're a local shelter looking to see your adoptable pets appear on Patch, you'll need to list them through Petfinder.
