Description

Do you want to add to your family and have a positive impact on the Portland community at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization. Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many shelters in the Portland area are still working to fulfill adoptions. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home across Maine — and many of them are located within driving distance. In the search for a new fur child, consider starting at a local adoption center like Homeless Animal Rescue Team Hart, where Whitney 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. Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. Whether you're a dog or cat person, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
