Chelmsford Pets Who Need A Home: Giblet, Marge, Noelle & More

Do you want to add a new member to your family and make a positive impact on the Chelmsford community at the same time? Perhaps it’s the right time to adopt a pet! During the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many pets are still looking for their forever homes and facilities still working to place pets with families.

There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home throughout Massachusetts — and many are located not too far from you. In the search for your new companion, consider checking out a local shelter like Lowell Humane Society, where Schnitzel the rabbit 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.

Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a dog person, you might like Giblet, a Beagle 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.
