Want to add a furry ball of four-legged love and affection to your family and give back to the Iowa City community at the same time? Maybe it's time to adopt a pet! Shelters in the Iowa City area have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting to be adopted. About 6.5 million companion animals are given to adoption agencies each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all shelter pets are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. On a search for an adorable new family member? Consider checking out a local rescue facility like Gems Forever Animal Rescue Inc, where Campbell 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. If you 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, meet Reagan, a Terrier mix up for adoption. 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.
