Latest Pets Up For Adoption At Scarsdale Area Shelters

Looking to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the world at the same time? Consider adopting a pet from a local shelter. Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many animal shelters in Scarsdale and environs are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through.

There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home in New York — and many of them are located near you. For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a lovable new fur child is at Cat Assistance Inc, where Willow 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 permanent homes.

If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. 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 Dashawn & Lulu, 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.
