Pet Adoption In The SoHo-Little Italy Area: New Dogs, Cats Added This Week
Looking to add a new member to your family and make a positive impact on the world at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a dog, cat or other animal from a local shelter. Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, animal shelters have dogs, cats and other kinds of pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a lovable new fur child is at Animal Haven, where Cole 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.
Need some help in your search? Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We round up a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. Whether you're a dog or cat person, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
