Description

If you're looking to add a fuzzy ball of love and affection to your household, look no further than these shelters in the Rockford area for a pet you can take home. Over 6 million companion animals are taken in each year by adoption agencies 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. This means millions of animals — some right here in the Rockford area — are still waiting for their forever homes. Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we compile a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a cat person, meet Delilah, a Domestic Medium Hair up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs available, too. 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.
