Description

Looking to add to your family and give back to the Waterford community at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, many facilities in and around Waterford are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through. Across Connecticut, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home — and many of them are located in your area. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a new friend is at Wings Of Freedom Animal Rescue, where Portia the dog is waiting patiently, or another local shelter. 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. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, you might like KORA, a Rottweiler up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder.
