Description

Looking to add to your family and have a positive impact on the Rockford community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. Amid the coronavirus pandemic, animal shelters in the Rockford area have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home throughout Illinois — and many of them are located near you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin your search for a lovable new fur child is at Paws Humane Society, where Yara the cat 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. If you 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. If you're a dog person, meet Ernie, a Mixed Breed 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. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder.
