Grayslake: cats, dogs, pets for adoption nearby

If you’re looking to add a fluffy ball of love and affection to your life, these shelters in the Grayslake area are the perfect place for a pet in need of a home.

According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, approximately 6.5 million pound pets are taken in each year nationwide. However, according to ASPCA data, only half of all shelter animals – about 3.2 million – are adopted each year. That means millions of animals – some right here in the Grayslake area – are still waiting to be found forever.

Do you need help with your search? Patch and Petfinder are here for you. Every week we make a list of all the pets that have recently been put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a cat person, meet Fifi, an adopted Domestic Short Hair. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several awesome dogs out there too.
