ABOUT
OUR SHELTER

Founded in 1893, the Meriden Humane Society is a non-profit, no kill animal shelter and rescue facility. Many of our animals are taken from high risk situations or surrendered by private citizens who are no longer able to care for their animals.
 

Our organization is privately run and operated. We are supported by patrons and residents who donate to our facility. Contrary to popular belief, we are not affiliated with the Connecticut Humane Society. Without the help we receive from the citizens of our community and surrounding communities, we would not be able to save all the animals that we do. 

Our Story

Founded in 1893, MHS rescues cats and dogs throughout Connecticut.

What We Do

We are a non-profit, no kill animal shelter and rescue facility.  We are not affiliated with any other humane society and receive no state or federal funding.  We rely only on YOUR donations.
