Description

Looking to add a new member to your family and make a positive impact on the world at the same time? Maybe it's finally time to adopt a pet! During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, shelters in the Springfield area have dogs, cats and other kinds of pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Across Missouri, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — many of whom are located in your area. In the search for your new fur child, consider starting at a local shelter like Humane Society Of Sw Missouri, where Otis the dog is waiting patiently. If you aren't sure if you have time to take care of a pet year round, many shelters also offer opportunities to foster pets until they are placed in permanent homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. Whether you're a dog person, or if cats are more your thing, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
