There are 664 special adoptions currently listed. While every animal is special, these pets truly need a second chance at a happy home. The cases featured below are those that involve animals involved in animal cruelty cases that are currently open to adoption or foster care. Some of these animals have been been held in shelters as evidence for months, sometimes even years, and are finally available for placement.

While some animals may have behavioral issues resulting from an abusive past, most simply require a lot of love and a little patience to bounce back. Be sure to discuss their behavioral and medical needs with the adoption facility to ensure that your home will be a good match*.

* Please note: While we make every effort to keep this list updated, we have no way of knowing that an animal has been adopted unless the shelter contacts us. Pet-Abuse.Com makes no guarantees that the animal will still be available for adoption by the time you contact them.
