It's Friday, and maaan, this week has been difficult. But! We are about to make sure that your weekend starts on the right paw. That's right, friends, it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Every single week, we gather up the newest, most heartwarming, and most wholesome cat adoption stories on the web. Whether it's the story of a kitten getting adopted or a gorgeous senior finding the pawfect house to spend its final years in - seeing it makes us so happy, and we know that you guys feel the same.

As we do every week, we want to thank every single one of the people who have recently adopted, have adopted in the past, or will adopt in the future. These beautiful kitties wouldn't have their purrfect furrever home without you. And an extra-special thank you to those who adopted senior cats, giving them a second chance at a happy life, and all those other cats who need a little more care and attention. You are their forever heroes!

"How do I clip my cat's nails? I adopted her 3 weeks ago and she's scared of a lot things including blankets. In general, she won't sit in my lap or let me pick her up yet. She really needs a nail trim though since she's ripped my bedsheets and other items. Do I try when she's asleep?"

"Newly adopted Toby(15) finally emerging from hiding under the bed...
I'm actually surprised it's taken him so long. The rescue said he's very independent and carefree. I found him laying on my bed just now, but it's been a slow process."
