Description

Looking to add to your family? Look no further than these Albany animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Facilities have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting for someone to take them home. Over 6 million pets are surrendered or taken in each year by rescue organizations 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 Albany area — are still waiting for their forever homes. 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.
