Meet The Newly Adopted Faces Of The Week (22 Images)

If there is one thing that is guaranteed to put a smile on our faces every single week without exception, it's what you're about to see now: the most wholesome, heartwarming, and positive collection of animal posts. Everyone, meet the newly adopted faces of the week.

Every single Friday, we go through the internet and bring you the newest stories of the most awwdorable animal adoptions. From the tiniest itty bitty kitties, to regal and gorgeous super seniors.

As always, we want to say thank you to everyone who adopted an animal this week and wish you luck in the journey ahead of you. And an even bigger thank you goes to those of you who adopted the pets that are even more difficult to take care of - the seniors, the sick pets, the pets with the behavioral issues. You have all undertaken a difficult task but one that will make you and your pet forever happy.
