Description

Looking to add a new member to your family and give back to the Albany community at the same time? Perhaps it's the right time to adopt a pet! Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, animal shelters in and around Albany have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home across New York — and many are located within driving distance. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for a lovable new family member is at Peppertree Rescue, where Lennon the dog is waiting patiently, or another local facility. 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 appropriate homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a cat person, meet MEOW !!, a Tiger up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs 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.
