Our Companions Domestic Animal Sanctuary
About Our Companions...
Our Companions is a nonprofit organization that believes no pet should ever be homeless. Every pet is a beautiful, blessed creature who deserves life and love.
We now provide unique public services aimed at the root causes of pet homelessness, including training classes, low-cost sterilization, pet consultations, community education, adoption networks, and many other services. All of these programs are critically needed for the pets and people of Connecticut and we are delivering them every day through our team of dedicated staff and volunteers.
Additionally, we have embarked upon our first phase of construction to transform an abandoned 43-acre egg farm into a sanctuary for abused and homeless pets.
The staff, animal experts, and volunteers at Our Companions believe there's a proper home for nearly every pet. We're working to create homes for the state's most abused, most neglected, most needy pets.

Our Companions Domestic Animal Sanctuary kicks off its Home for Good: A Place for Our Companions Capital Campaign.
In 2006 we launched our “Groundbreaking Campaign” to raise the funds to demolish the existing structures on the Ashford site. These unusable buildings, (once an industrial egg farm that housed over 100,000 laying hens) will be razed to make room for the sanctuary. It’s no small irony that the site where hundreds of thousands of animals suffered, will be transformed into a life-saving refuge for needy pets.
Thanks to over 35 donors, including the donation of demolition services by an anonymous corporate donor, we successfully raised the funds to complete the demolition- the critical first step in this project.
This year we have launched the campaign to raise $600,000 which will construct our first rescue cottage.
