Latest Pets Up For Adoption In The Scottsdale Area
Want to add a furry friend to your family and give back to the Scottsdale community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter or organization. During the coronavirus pandemic, many local animals are still looking for their forever homes and facilities still working to fulfill adoptions.
Across Arizona, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without a home — and many are located near you. In the search for a new companion, consider checking out a local facility like Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary, where Larson 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 Joe Cool, 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.
