Description

If you've been wanting to add a fluffy ball of love and affection to your life, start with these Anchorage area shelters for a pet to adopt. There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home across Alaska — and many are located near you. On a search for a new four-legged companion? Consider beginning at a local animal shelter like Clear Creek Cat Rescue Cccr, where Dharma 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 in appropriate homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, 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 Boris, an Alaskan Malamute up for adoption. Or 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.
