Description

If you're hoping to add a fluffy ball of love and affection to your family, start with these animal shelters in and around Springfield for a pet up for adoption. About 6.5 million pets and other companion animals are surrendered to adoption agencies each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all these animals are adopted each year, ASPCA data shows. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Springfield area — are still waiting for their forever 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 dog person, you might like Hercules , a Pit Bull Terrier up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information 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. All readers are encouraged to report errors or other feedback to [email protected].
