Description

Looking to add a furry friend to your family and give back to the Athens community at the same time? Perhaps it's time to adopt a pet! Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many facilities in the Athens area are still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets in forever homes. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin the search for a new family member is at Athenspets, where Tonka 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 in appropriate homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Evrit, a Labrador Retriever mix up for adoption. 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.
