Description

If you've been wanting to add a four-legged ball of love and affection to your family, start with these shelters in and around Iowa City for a pet up for adoption. Over 6 million pets are given to rescue organizations 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, according to ASPCA data. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Iowa City area — are still waiting for their forever homes. Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've amassed this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, you might like Rosco, a German Shorthaired Pointer up for adoption. Or 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.
