Description

If you're wanting to add a fuzzy ball of love and affection to your family, you should check out these Burlington area shelters for a pet who needs a home. Millions of pets and other companion animals are surrendered to adoption facilities each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only half of all shelter animals — about 3.2 million — are adopted each year, ASPCA data shows. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Burlington area — are still waiting for their forever homes. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has rounded up this week's list of pets available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, meet READY FREDDIE in CO, a West Highland White Terrier / Westie mix up for adoption. 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.
