Newport News Pets Waiting To Be Adopted: Reggie, Remi, Tammy & More

Do you want to add a furry friend to your family and do something good for the Newport News community at the same time? Consider adopting a pet from a local shelter. During the coronavirus pandemic, animal shelters have dogs, cats and other pets ready and waiting for someone to take them home.

In the search for a new companion, consider beginning at a local shelter like Peninsula Spca, where Cosmo 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 in appropriate homes.

If you need some help in your search, Patch and Petfinder have you covered. We put together 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 Reggie, a Plott Hound 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.
