My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Izzy! Izzy is an 11 year old pittie mix and he is the friendliest, goofiest, sweetest gentleman of a pup! Since he’s an older and more experienced boy, Izzy promises to be the chill, low-maintenance best friend you’ve always wanted. He’s healthy and full of joy so he would love to romp around with his favorite toys or join you on walks around the block. But … if you’re looking to grab an early bird special or spend 20 hours deep in a Netflix binge, Izzy is also 100% on board! He gets along well with other dogs and he loves people (and how they all swoon over his mile wide grin). Whether you have a dog or two or none, Izzy just wants to spend his senior years soaking up all the warmth and love that he can in a home of his own. If you’re interested in making Izzy’s dreams come true, please fill out an application at poainc.org and email lisa.b@poainc.org.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We do have a screening and application process. Protectors of Animals requires a veterinarian check before any adoption.

One of our experienced Placement Team members will meet with you and show you the cat, kitten or dog you are interested in, or will guide you towards cats, kittens or dogs that are appropriate for your home environment. We will discuss with you the background of the cat, kitten or dog and what special needs or requirements he or she may have. We will happily take the time to carefully answer any questions you have or discuss any concerns.


POA does not charge an adoption “fee.” It costs POA anywhere from $100 and $400, or more, per dog or cat or kitten to make them well and prepare them for adoption. We are an all-donation organization and we rely on adoption donations to help us continue our work. When you adopt a cat or dog, we will ask for a donation. Our adoption donation information can be found at our website at www.poainc.org.

More about this rescue

We are a NO-Kill rescue and shelter for cats and dogs.

POA was formed in 1975 to rescue abandoned, abused and stray cats and dogs. Today we are one of the oldest and most respected animal welfare organizations in the northeast. POA is here to stay! You will not find a more dedicated, experienced or thorough resource for improving the lives of Connecticut cats and dogs. We confine our focus to our home state because this is where our infrastructure and resources reside, as well as our leadership.
