Adorable Adoptable Pets Of The Week In The Windsor Terrace-Kensington Area

Want to add to your family and have a positive impact on the Windsor Terrace-Kensington community at the same time? Consider adopting a dog, cat or other kind of pet from a local shelter or organization. Despite the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many facilities are still working to find forever homes for dozens of cats, dogs and other adorable critters coming through.

There are thousands of dogs, cats and other animals of all ages without a home throughout New York — and many of them are located within driving distance. In the search for your new family pet, consider looking around at a local adoption center like Brooklyn Animal Action, where Spunky Mylo 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 permanent homes.

Here at Patch, with a little help from our friends at Petfinder, we put together a list each week of all the pets recently put up for adoption in your area. If you’re a cat person, meet Genaro, a Domestic Short Hair up for adoption. Or if dogs are more your thing, there are several great dogs available, too. Click on any listing for more information, or to start the adoption process.
