Description

Looking to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the Jackson community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, animal shelters have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted. Across Mississippi, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — and many of them are located within driving distance. In the search for your new fur child, consider looking around at a local adoption center like Jackson Friends Of Animal Shelter, where Fern 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. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Taz, a Dalmatian 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.
