In honor of today's day, let me introduce you to Pet Harbor.
Almost all the municipal shelters around the U.S. use this site to list the animals available, so if you're considering an adoption, this is a good place to start. Also, if you're looking for a very specific animal (and you don't mind travelling a little), you can increase the range of your search.
The site isn't perfect. It relies on the individual shelters to keep it up to date, but for the most part it helps.
Benefit the animals by providing mechanisms for them to be adopted if they are available or found if they are lost. Benefit the public by empowering them to adopt a new animal companion, find a lost pet, or re-unite an owner with a lost pet that they have found. Benefit the animal shelters by connecting the public with the shelter and the animals contained therein.
Dedication: This website is dedicated to those people who work in animal shelters. Our society has given to them a difficult and often heartbreaking task. It is a daily struggle that is largely unseen by the general public, and no pats on the back are given -- rarely do they ever hear a simple 'Thank you'. Yet day in and day out they meet their challenge with compassion, dignity, and humanity. From we who notice, Thank You.
On these pages you will find dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, sheep and horses, parakeets and hamsters. They come from your local animal shelter, SPCA, Humane Society, county or city Animal Control, and many private animal-welfare organizations.
Most of them need homes. 'Nuff said.
That’s a good one really. I need to get Rogue some boots for foot protection and a muzzle. Never know if we will end up having to walk on rough terrain to get to safety. Don’t want her to bite those helping her/me.
