Reston Pets Up For Adoption: Meet George, Freddie, Prancer & More
Looking to add a furry friend to your family and have a positive impact on the world at the same time? Maybe it's the right time to adopt a pet! During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many shelters are still working to fulfill adoptions.
For those looking to adopt, a great place to start your search for a new friend is at The Feline Foundation Of Greater Washington Inc, where Prancer the cat 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 appropriate homes.
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 George, 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.
