Description

Want to add a furry friend to your family and have a positive impact on the Harrisburg community at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a pet from a local shelter. Despite the coronavirus pandemic, shelters in and around Harrisburg have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted. Across Pennsylvania, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — and many of them are located near you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for your new fur child is at Critter Corner Rescue, where Littlefoot the reptile is waiting patiently, or another local adoption center. 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. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together 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.
