Beacon Hill Pets Up For Adoption: Meet Cleo, Teddy, Brindy & More
Want to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the world at the same time? Adopt a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter! During the coronavirus pandemic, many local animals are still looking for their forever homes and facilities still working to fulfill adoptions and place pets with families.
In the search for your new friend, consider beginning at a local facility like Animal Rescue League Of Boston, where Logan 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 in appropriate homes.
If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you're a cat person, meet Cleo, 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.
