Want to add a new member to your family and give back to the Westlake community at the same time? Maybe it’s finally time to adopt a pet! Amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many local animals are still looking for forever homes, and animal shelters are still working to place pets with families.
There are thousands, cats and other animals of all ages, sizes and breeds without homes across Ohio – many of them within driving distance. In your search for a new fur baby, consider looking around at a local facility like Mini Mutts Rescue, where Walter the dog is patiently waiting. If you’re not sure whether you have the time to care for a pet year-round, many shelters also offer the opportunity 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. If you’re a cat person, meet Batman, a domestic short-haired person up for adoption . Or if dogs are your thing, there are also some great ones available. Click on any listing for more information or to begin the adoption process.
