Adopt A Pet From Manhattan Beach Area Shelters: See New Dogs, Cats
Do you want to add a furry friend to your family and give back to the Manhattan Beach community at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter or organization! Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, facilities in the Manhattan Beach area have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting to be adopted.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to start the search for an adorable new family member is at Caring Songs Rescue, where Gemmie the dog is waiting patiently, or another local facility. 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 round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a dog person, meet Monty, a Terrier mix up for adoption. 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.
