Description

Looking to add a new member to your family and give back to the Iowa City community at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter! Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, facilities in and around Iowa City have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Across Iowa, 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. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin your search for a lovable new fur child is at Fur Fun Rescue, where Huckleberry 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 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. Whether you're a dog person, or if cats are more your thing, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
