Looking to add a new member to the family?

All around Sacramento, furry, feathered, and scaled friends large and small arrive at shelters on a daily basis. Animals like Nacho here are looking for new places to call their homes, and people to call their families.

Organizations like NorCal Bully Breed Rescue and the Sacramento SPCA work every day to find these cute little friends their fur-ever home, so what are you waiting for? We even have a whole list of pets and places to adopt from.
