Essex-Middle River Pets Who Need A Home: Buddy, Nellie, Buster & More

Essex-Middle River Pets Who Need A Home: Buddy, Nellie, Buster & More

Do you want to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the Essex-Middle River community at the same time? Maybe it’s finally time to adopt a pet! During the coronavirus pandemic, many animal shelters are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through.

In the search for a lovable new companion, consider starting at a local shelter like The Maryland Spca, where Raven the cat is waiting patiently. 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.

Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we round up 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 Buddy, 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.
