Adopt, Love, and Give a Pet a Second Chance

Paw PETection

At Paw PETection, we rescue, protect, and care for pets in need. As a no-kill nonprofit shelter in Fairfield County, every animal stays with us until they find a loving home — no matter how long it takes.

While Paw PETection runs volunteer operations, Penny Pets often hosts adoption and community events where volunteers are welcome to help. Together, we make rescue efforts sustainable.

How It Works

All of our available pets are listed online and can be met in person at our shelter.

Step 2: Apply Through Penny Pets

Submit your adoption application with Penny Pets, who oversees the placement process.

Step 3: Match & Home Check

Our team of experienced volunteers ensures the pet is a good fit for your family.

Step 4: Final Step! Welcome Home!

Finalize adoption through Penny Pets, and give your new best friend a forever home.
