Description

Want to add a new member to your family and make a positive impact on the world at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. During the COVID-19 pandemic, animal shelters in and around Jackson have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Across Mississippi, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — many of whom are located in your area. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for a lovable new fur child is at Jackson Friends Of Animal Shelter, where Daisy the dog is waiting patiently, or another local animal 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 appropriate homes. 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 Zoey, a Shepherd 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.
