Do you want to add to your family? Look no further than these New London animal shelters for a pet available for adoption. Many shelters in New London and environs are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through. Millions of pets and other companion animals are given to adoption agencies each year nationwide, according to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. However, only around half of all animals are adopted each year, ASPCA data shows. On a search for a lovable new family member? Consider checking out a local animal pound like Focus On Ferals Inc, where Gizmo the cat 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 in permanent 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.
