Want to add a furry friend to your family? Look no further than these Greenville animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Shelters in Greenville and environs have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home. About 6.5 million pets are surrendered or taken in each year by adoption facilities nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all shelter pets are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. If you're on a search for a lovable new four-legged friend, consider looking around at a local facility like Cause N Dog Rescue, where Leo the dog 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. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has compiled this week's list of animals 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. 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.
