Description

If you've been looking to add a fluffy ball of love and affection to your life, start with these Falmouth area shelters for a pet up for adoption. Over 6 million companion animals are taken in each year by animal rescue organizations 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 around half of all these animals are adopted each year, according to ASPCA data. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Falmouth area — are still waiting for their forever homes. If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We've amassed this week's list of animals available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, meet Preston, a Brittany Spaniel mix up for adoption. 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.
