Adoption > Adoption beyond cats & dogs

Whether you're looking to adopt a parrot, a guinea pig, or even a horse, there is a rescue group that can help you. In addition to finding the newest member of your family, you'll be connecting with people who are a great resource for any questions you may have.

Remember that many animal shelters also have adoptable pets such as rabbits, birds, reptiles, and even farm animals. Be sure to check with your local shelter for available animals!
