Want to add to your family and do something good for the Pine-Richland community at the same time? Then you should consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many animal shelters in Pine-Richland and environs are still working to fulfill adoptions.
Across Pennsylvania, there are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home and many of them are located within driving distance. For those looking to adopt, a great place to begin the search for your new fur child is at Angels For Animals, where Shadow the cat is waiting patiently, or another local shelter. 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.
