Looking to add to your family and have a positive impact on the Cheyenne community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter. Many animal shelters in Cheyenne and environs are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through. Millions of companion animals are surrendered or taken in each year by animal shelters 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 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 Cheyenne area — are still waiting for their forever homes. With help from our friends at Petfinder, Patch has rounded up this week's list of pets available for adoption near you. If you're a dog person, you might like Nancy , a Mixed Breed up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. 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.
