Power Of Love: 30 Before And After Photos Of Cats That Were Loved Back To Health
Greetings, ICanHasers, and happy Hump Day! Every Wednesday, we bring you the top before and after adoption photos to feature happy cataroos that got a second chance at a forever home. You guys know that we love this segment so much because it gives us hope for better things to come. Whether you're a cat or a human, we all go through tough things in life. Some more than others, but still, suffering is inevitable (apparently). So it's always amazing to see helpless animals in need, especially cats, go from a rough life on the streets to a comforting and loving home with a nurturing hooman.
It breaks our hearts every time we think about the atrocities these babies have experienced in their earlier life. Their eyes in the before photos tell a story of sadness, fear, and distrust. The after photos tell a whole other story. Hopefully, these felines will never have to fear anything in their life ever again. We hope this collection of photos will warm your hearts and inspire your souls for greatness!

"They told us it might be cancer, we adopted her anyways. Turns out she was just stressed out!"
We've heard this narrative before. The shelter warns adopters about a cat being sick, anxious, or feral but when the cat comes home, he/she turns out to be an amazingly cuddly cat that's full of love. Shelters are incredibly stressful environments, so obviously these poor babies feel anxious and hissy. Oh how we wish for every cat in the world to feel love and only love.

"Tiny and Scared to Queen of the House"
Now, this is what we're talking about! We can only imagine the horrible things this little girl has encountered in her short lifespan, the streets are not a safe and pleasant place to live, especially when you're a helpless little kitten. Thank god this queen has found her rightful place on the thrown and is now the queen of a loving home. As she should.
