Description

Want to add a shaggy ball of four-legged love and affection to your family? Look no further than these Jackson animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Facilities in Jackson and environs have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Over 6 million pets are surrendered or taken in each year by shelters nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all shelter animals are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. If you're on a search for an adorable new four-legged companion, consider beginning at a local adoption center like Mississippi Animal Rescue League Marl, where Snoopy 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 permanent homes. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has created this week's list of pets available for adoption near you. If you're a cat person, meet A.T. , a Domestic Short Hair up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs 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.
