Description

Looking to add a furry ball of four-legged love and affection to your family and give back to the Jackson community at the same time? Maybe it's the right time to adopt a pet! Many animal shelters in the Jackson area are still working to fulfill adoptions. Over 6 million pets are surrendered to adoption facilities each year 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, ASPCA data shows. On a search for a new fur child? Consider checking out a local adoption center like Mississippi Animal Rescue League Marl, where Spanky 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 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.
