Description

Do you want to add to your family and give back to the Waco community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. Local shelters have dogs, cats and other kinds of pets ready and waiting to be adopted. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages and sizes without a home throughout Texas — many of whom are located not too far from you. Looking to adopt your new fur child? A great place to begin your search is at Humane Society Of Central Tx, where Gunnar the dog is waiting patiently, or another local rescue center. 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 appropriate homes. Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've created this week's list of pets available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, meet LACY, an Australian Cattle Dog / Blue Heeler mix up for adoption. 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.
