Adorable Adoptable Pets Of The Week In The Pleasantville-Briarcliff Manor Area
Looking to add to your family and give back to the Pleasantville-Briarcliff Manor community at the same time? Perhaps it's time to adopt a pet! Despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many shelters in the Pleasantville-Briarcliff Manor area are still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets in forever homes.
Across New York, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home — and many are located near you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a new fur child is at Paws Crossed Animal Rescue Inc, where Scottie 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.
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, meet Loki, a Border Collie 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.
