Description

Want to add a furry friend to your family and have a positive impact on the world at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a pet from a local shelter or organization. Pet adoption agencies in and around Charleston have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted. Over 6 million companion animals are taken in each year by shelters nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Of those, approximately 3.3 million are dogs and 3.2 million are cats. Shelters often look after other animals in search of a permanent home as well, including pigs, birds and even horses. However, only half of all shelter animals — about 3.2 million — are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Charleston area — are still waiting for their forever homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We compile 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 Jughead, a Pit Bull Terrier up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. 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.
