Adoptable Pets Come in All Shapes and Sizes

When considering a new pet for your home, sometimes a dog or cat isn't the best choice.

Maybe your home is too small or you don't want to commit to early morning walks. Maybe you're just more interested in other kinds of pets.

Regardless of what pet you're looking for, there's probably an adoption servicve not too far from where you live that can help you. And when you adopt a pet, you're also helping the services—which are in critical need of homes for pets of all sizes and temperments.

So, this week we're taking a look at some of the other best friends out there—no dogs, no cats—and hope you'll consider searching out an adoptable choice the next time you want a new friend.   

We've featured some of the animals available from the Somerset Regional Animal Shelter, Safe Haven Rabbit Rescue, MetroFerret, and the Friends of Lord Stirling Stables.
