Animal ShelterOUR HISTORY
In 1964, the late Ruth Spoor and a group of animal lovers created the CAAA as a rescue group for the many cats and dogs often abandoned by summer residents. Over the years our organization grew from a few donated cages in an empty garage to occupying a 1,200 sq foot building at 260 Main Street to our present 7,500 sq foot building at 4 Paws Lane, the Christopher Cutler Rich Animal Shelter. June of 2022 marks 10 years at our current location.
WE REACH OUT TO ANIMALS IN NEED
Today we continue to make the rescue of local cats and dogs our first priority. Many of our animals arrive via owner surrender or from local overburdened animal control agencies, humane societies, and rescue groups. Due to effective spay and neuter in New England, we are also able to take in and find homes for animals from other areas of the country and beyond that are struggling with animal overpopulation issues.
OUR ANIMALS RECEIVE INDIVIDUAL CARE AND ATTENTION
Specially trained staff and volunteers spend time handling, grooming, socializing, training and interacting with each animal in our care. Our animals are provided with a variety of interactive toys and receive lots of affection. Our dogs are walked regularly and our cats get time to roam outside of cages where they can investigate, play, and interact with other cats.
WE ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT OUR ANIMALS
Some animals arrive at our shelter with health issues. Our Shelter Medicine Department ensures that they receive the treatment needed to maintain a good quality of life. We are able to complete about 90% of all medical care in-house, and partner closely with area vets to complete procedures that are unable to be done at the shelter. In addition, we work to rehabilitate animals with behavior issues to the best of our ability. Patron animal lovers like yourselves allow us to provide the extra care any of our special needs pets require. No adoptable animals in our care are ever euthanized for age, space, or length of stay.
WE'RE HERE TO HELP EVERY STEP OF THE WAY!
