This week’s Pet of the Week is Finn! A 2-year-old cat with a soft personality and a big heart.

Finn may be reserved at first, but once he feels safe, he’s sweet, loyal, and loving. He’s hoping for a calm home with adults who understand shy cats and can give him the time he needs to adjust. While he hasn’t had much experience with other pets, he’s open to the idea of sharing his new home with the right furry friend.

Finn does have some special needs, but he has so much life and love to give. His perfect family will be patient, kind, and ready to help him thrive.

You can meet Finn at the Connecticut Humane Society’s Newington branch. To set up a time, visit cthumane.org/adopt.

Say hello to Indigo, our Connecticut Humane Society Per of the Week! He is a 9-year-old domestic shorthair with striking looks, a sweet personality, and a little extra “fluff” at 18 pounds. 

Indigo is searching for a calm, adult (or older teen) household where he can be the only pet and soak up all the love. He’s a cuddly companion who enjoys eating, sleeping, and getting attention, though sometimes he gets a bit overstimulated and appreciates a little “me time.”

One of Indigo’s goals for his new home? Shedding a few pounds with the help of a healthier diet and some fun playtime! His new family will not only gain a loving friend but also help him feel his best.

Indigo is available at the Connecticut Humane Society’s Waterford location. Visits are by appointment, which you can book now at cthumane.org/adopt.
