Description

Do you want to add a new member to your family and have a positive impact on the world at the same time? Perhaps it's the right time to adopt a pet! Many facilities in the Springfield area are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home throughout Missouri — and many of them are located not too far from you. On a search for a new four-legged friend? Consider starting at a local rescue center like C Dot Ar Dot E Animal Rescue, where Turbo the dog 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 appropriate homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we create 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 Guiseppe, a Terrier up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing to learn more 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.
