Looking to add to your family? Look no further than these Rockford animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Many pound animals are still looking for their forever home and facilities are still working to place pets with families. Across Illinois, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home — and many are located in your area. On a search for an adorable new friend? Consider beginning at a local shelter like Paws Humane Society, where Penn 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 in permanent homes. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has compiled this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. Whether you're looking for cuddles or companionship, one of these animals could be the perfect fit for your family. Click on any listing for more information about a pet or to start the adoption process. Editor's note: This list was automatically generated using data compiled by Petfinder. If you're a local shelter looking to see your adoptable pets appear on Patch, you'll need to list them through Petfinder.
