Rockridge Adoptable Pets Of The Week: Chloe, Grayson, Ruthie & More

Looking to add a new member to your family and give back to the Rockridge community at the same time? Adopt a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter! Amid the coronavirus pandemic, many animal shelters in and around Rockridge are still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets in forever homes.

In the search for a new fur child, consider checking out a local adoption center like California Pit Bull Rescue, where Pim 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.

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 Chloe, a Russian Blue 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.
