My story

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

Meet Maisy! Maisy is a 70 pound, 3-year-old pittie mix and she’s quickly become a volunteer favorite. Not only is she beautiful, but every new friend she meets gushes over how sweet and friendly she is. Maisy is the perfect combination of mellow and playful. She’s not afraid to be a goofball and take some zooms around the yard. She loves to go for walks, sniffing along the way and stopping for cuddles. She’s smart and already knows basic commands like “sit” and “paw” and “I noticed that my sit didn’t get a treat so here’s a paw.” She also loves car rides and sticking her head out the window to feel the breeze blowing through her big silky ears. As a bonus, you get to use the phrase, “Driving Miss Maisy,” as often as you’d like and she’ll always laugh at your joke. This gentle soul is so ready to settle into a life of love in her very own furever home. If you’re interested in meeting Maisy, 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.
