Peabody Pets Who Need A Home: Meet Mandy, Bailey, Ruthy & More
Do you want to add a new member to your family and do something good for the Peabody community at the same time? Perhaps it’s time to adopt a pet! During the COVID-19 pandemic, many local animals are still looking for their forever homes and animal shelters still working to place pets with families.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin your search for your new friend is at Northeast Animal Shelter, where Ruthy the dog is waiting patiently, or another local shelter. 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.
Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a cat person, meet MANDY, 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.
