VIDEO: Humane Society's Pets of the Week

Hartley the cat and Betty Lou the dog are searching for their "fur-ever" homes.

The animal shelter is located at 169 Old Colchester Road and is open Monday through Saturday, 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. and on Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Dog adoption hours begin at 10:30 a.m. The phone number is 860-442-8583.

Humane Society employee Rachel McCabe introduced us to these animals this week:

  • Hartley, a 10-year-old cat who is as big as they come,
  • and Betty Lou, a little dog with a lot of energy.

Animals are adopted and dropped off at the Humane Society on a daily basis so if you see an animal in this video who you want, act fast. If you miss your chance however, these ones are still waiting for someone to bring them home:
