Looking to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the world at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization. Many pound animals are still looking for their forever home and animal shelters are still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets with families. Millions of companion animals are given to animal rescue organizations each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all animals are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. If you're on a search for a lovable new companion, consider starting at a local rescue center like Protectors Of Animal Lives Society Pals, where Dove 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 in permanent homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a cat person, meet Jade, a Domestic Medium Hair up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs 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.
