Description

Do you want to add to your family? Look no further than these Rockford animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Shelters in Rockford and environs have dogs, cats and other kinds of pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Across Illinois, 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. If you're on a search for a new family member, consider checking out a local rescue agency like Paws Humane Society, where Soraya 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. 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 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.
