Do you want to add a new member to your family and do something good for the world at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. Amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many pets are still looking for their forever homes and animal shelters still working to place pets with families. Across Missouri, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home — and many of them are located not too far from you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin your search for your new family member is at Rescue One, where Gamma the cat 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. If you're a dog person, you might like Gumbo, a Rottweiler up for adoption. Or 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.
