Description

Do you want to add to your family and give back to the world at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. Many pound animals are still looking for their forever home and shelters are still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets with families. Over 6 million pets are given to rescue organizations each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only half of all shelter animals — about 3.2 million — are adopted each year, ASPCA data shows. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Marion area — are still waiting for their forever homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've rounded up this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. If you're a cat person, meet Kevin, a Domestic Short 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.
