Description

If you've been wanting to add a four-legged ball of love and affection to your household, look no further than these shelters in and around Meridian for a pet to take home. About 6.5 million companion animals are surrendered to shelters each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all these animals are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Meridian area — are still waiting for their forever 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 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.
