Mansfield-Storrs Area Newly Available Pets for Adoption: Derby & More

Would you like to expand your family and do something good for the Mansfield Storrs community at the same time? Maybe the time is right to adopt a pet! Many pets are still looking for their forever homes, and the facilities are still working to meet adoptions and place pets with families.

According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, millions of pets are captured by animal rescue organizations across the country each year.

Of these, around 3.3 million are dogs and 3.2 million are cats. In the search for permanent home, shelters often look after other animals as well, including pigs, birds, and even horses.

However, according to ASPCA data, only about half of all pets are adopted each year. That means millions of animals – some right here in the Mansfield-Storrs area – are still waiting forever to be found.

Do you need help with your search? Patch and Petfinder are here for you. We have compiled the list of animals for this week that can be adopted in your area. Whether you’re looking for cuddling or company, one of these animals could be a perfect fit for your family. If you’re a cat person, meet Ashen, Smokey, Sooty & Jejune, a Domestic Short Hair up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several awesome dogs out there too.
