Description

Want to add a new member to your family and do something good for the Springfield community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter. Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, many local animals are still looking for their forever homes and shelters still working to place pets with families. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin your search for an adorable new friend is at Sangamon County Animal Control Center, where Dallas the dog is waiting patiently, or another local animal 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 permanent 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 dog person, you might like Karma, a Pit Bull Terrier 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.
