The Connecticut Humane Society is the leading resource in the state for companion animal welfare, enriching the lives of families and communities through adoption services, medical care, education, and prevention of cruelty. 

CHS has broadened its mission beyond pet adoption to include keeping pets in homes. While sheltering and adoption remain essential, CHS is dedicated to preventing pet surrenders and abandonment. To support this effort, CHS offers resources such as affordable veterinary care, pet food pantries, humane education, and crisis fostering for those in need. Proceeds from the contest and calendar sales support these life-changing programs. 

Vision Statement: CHS envisions a state where each companion animal finds a permanent, compassionate home, where communities are enriched by the special bond between people and animals, and where cruelty no longer exists.
