Do you want to add a new member to your family and have a positive impact on the world at the same time? Adopt a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization! Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many shelters in Springfield and environs are still working to fulfill adoptions. Across Missouri, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home — many of whom are located in your area. In the search for a new fur child, consider looking around at a local animal shelter like Rescue One, where Fremont the cat 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 appropriate homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a cat person, meet Shiva, a Domestic Short Hair mix up for adoption. 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.
