The Mansfield Animal Shelter's mission is to achieve the most efficient and effective use of resources for the benefit of the citizens and animals, to create an environment in which people can move about safely (law enforcement), and to minimize euthanasia by promoting our facility's pets for adoption in as many ways as possible.
Weekdays: by appointment
Weekends: 10am - 11am
Holidays: by appointment
Appointments are necessary since the officer is on the road on a regular basis.
Our adoption fee is $5 for neutered or spayed pets. If the animal is not already spayed or neutered, the fee will be $50 through the CT animal population control program. We use pet adoption questionnaires to match prospective owners with pets. By state statute, we reserve the right to refuse any adoption.
To see pets available in animal shelters in our area please visit the North Eastern Connecticut Animal Rescue (NECTAR) site.
