There is usually an animal shelter in every town, and they are great places to volunteer. With about six million animals going into animal shelters each year, there are plenty that need our help. Adopting an animal is cheaper than buying one from a breeder, and you could be helping an animal in need. Some have been abused. Some were born in the wild. Some had owners who could not keep them. No matter what, adopting animals from shelters is a good idea.
