See The Latest Adoptable Pets At Birmingham Area Shelters

Looking to add to your family and give back to the Birmingham community at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter or organization! During the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, shelters in and around Birmingham have dogs, cats and other animals ready and waiting for someone to take them home.

For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin the search for a new fur child is at Weimaraner Rescue Of The South, where Piper 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.

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 dog person, you might like Blue Christmas, a Pit Bull Terrier up for adoption. Or if cats are more your thing, there are several great cats available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
