Good morning, friends, and congratulations for making it to Friday. We hope you have had a pawsome week that was chill and productive and fun and that you're ready for an even better weekend. Or at least, we can promise you that if you're here, then you're about to start your day on the right paw, because it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Week by week, every Friday morning, we start your day of with a brand new collection of the cutest, sweetest, most heartwarming cat adoption stories on the web. These stories make us smile, and we know that they do the same for you, so prepare yourselves for an extra dose of pawsitivity.

As always, we would like to thank every single person who adopted a kitty this week, and an extra warm thank you goes to those of you who adopted senior cats, sick cats, rehomed cats, or any other "impurrfect" kitties. They thank you, and we thank you, and we wish you all many, many years together!
