Adoption Stories and Rescues We Found Online

It's a beautiful day today, guys, and do you know why? Because today is the day that we get to wake up to a whole new collection of the cutest, most wholesome cat adoption stories of the week! Here's a little spoiler alert: this is gonna be the most heartwarming thing you will see all week.

Once a week, on Friday morning, we gather here all together to celebrate all the newly adopted cats. Big or small, young or old, we compile them all right here into this heartwarming listicle to bring smiles to everyone's faces this morning and make sure that you guys finish this week of pawsitively and strongly.

We would like to take a moment to thank all those who have recently adopted a cat, to thank all those who have adopted a cat in the past, and to pre-thank all those who will be adopting in the future. Thank you all so much for providing these beautiful kitties with a loving home! And, of course, a special humongous shout out to those who adopt a senior cat or a cat that requires a bit more love and care. You are our heroes.

"We adopted 6yo Gimli into our Fellowship last Sunday, as no one wanted him because of his age. Any recommendations on how to get an older cat settled into his furever home?"

"My neighbours left town permanently and forgot their cat… I guess I own a cat now? They always said she had a pedigree but seeing as I hated them, can anyone give me any clues as to what breeds to look at? I want to read up on the breed to become a better owner…"
