Since 1984,Pet Connection Programs Inc. has provided a great service to our animal friends and to the community. We take in special care and maternity animals, support their needs until a suitable, permanent home is found. The Pet Connection continues to manage other programs: The Pet Food Bank: Our shelter was the first organization in Western N.Y to start a pet food bank and distribute food to the elderly, low income individuals and people who live in devastated areas. This service was developed to assist those who could not longer afford their pets. Since the pet sometimes is the only source of companionship and protection for the individual, we found it is important to everyone's well being. The Pet Therapeutic Program: We bring kitties or pups to the nursing homes for therapy reasons and the residents love holding the them. This program is very important, some residents do not have any family and this program has been a blessing for them. Please help us support this program or volunteer. Please fill out a Volunteer application on this website. THANK YOU! Support for these programs has dwindled over time and we need your help to continue with these projects. For Pet Therapy, ask for a donor's choice card and select: Pet Theraputic Program through the United Way, check with your employer to include us in your selection. Your donation in any amount will mean so much to the life of a rescued animal. If every person who visits this site would donate something, it would fund the cost of medical care for these precious animals. You can make a difference! Thank you!
