Duluth Pets Who Need A Home: Hope, Toast, Callie & More

Looking to add a furry friend to your family and give back to the world at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter or organization! During the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many shelters in Duluth and environs are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through.

Across Georgia, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home — many of whom are located near you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin the search for a new family member is at Planned Pethood Of Georgia, where Callie the cat is waiting patiently, or another local adoption center. 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.

Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a cat person, meet Hope, a Domestic Short 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, or to start the adoption process.
