Pet adoption in Ferrara

Ferrara, the city of the Este family and bicycles, has a well-established tradition of attention to animal welfare. Ferrara's organizations — among the most organized in Emilia-Romagna — manage shelters, foster families, and school education programs to promote respect for animals from an early age. The Ferrara territory, with the Po Delta and the Comacchio valleys, is a naturalistic area of great value where coexistence between people and wildlife is part of local culture. Province shelters welcome animals of all kinds, with particular attention to dogs rescued in agricultural areas and cats from urban colonies. On Adoot.me you can find animals for adoption in Ferrara and the province. Browse profiles, filter by the characteristics you're looking for, and send your application online. Conditions vary by shelter — check each animal's profile for details or contact the organization directly. Ferrara is famous for being the city of bikes: living here with a dog is a unique experience, with cycle paths extending throughout the city and numerous parks where you can walk your four-legged companion.
