Description

Looking to add to your family? Look no further than these Decatur animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Facilities have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting to be adopted. Over 6 million pets are surrendered or taken in each year by shelters 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 Decatur area — are still waiting for their forever homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we've created this week's list of pets available for adoption near you. Whether you're looking for cuddles or companionship, one of these animals could be the perfect fit for your family. If you're a cat person, meet Nimue, a Domestic Short Hair mix up for adoption. If dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs 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.
