New City Pets Who Need A Home: Meet Justice, Spice, Oliver & More
Do you want to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the New City community at the same time? Maybe it’s finally time to adopt a pet! Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, many pets are still looking for their forever homes and facilities still working to fulfill adoptions.
There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home in New York — and many of them are located in your area. In the search for your new fur child, consider checking out a local animal shelter like A Good Dog Rescue, where Mannie the dog 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 appropriate homes.
If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. Whether you’re a dog person, or if cats are more your thing, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
