Want to add a fluffy ball of four-legged love and affection to your family and give back to the Rockford community at the same time? Maybe it's finally time to adopt a pet! Many facilities in the Rockford area are still working to fulfill adoptions. About 6.5 million pets are surrendered to shelters each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Of those, approximately 3.3 million are dogs and 3.2 million are cats. Shelters often look after other animals in search of a permanent home as well, including pigs, birds and even horses. 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 Rockford area — are still waiting for their forever homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we've rounded up this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. If you're a cat person, meet Enyo, a Domestic Long 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.
