Adorable Adoptable Pets Of The Week In The Marietta Area

Looking to add to your family and do something good for the world at the same time? Adopt a pet from a local shelter or organization! Despite the coronavirus pandemic, facilities in Marietta and environs have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting to be adopted.

In the search for a new family pet, consider checking out a local facility like Friends Of Shelter Animals For Cobb County, where Buddy the dog 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 in appropriate homes.

Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we create a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. Whether you’re a dog or cat person, there are several great options available. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
