Meet The Newly Adopted Faces Of The Week: 19 Wholesome Cat Adoption Stories

Happy morning, cat people, and TGIF. The weekend is just around the corner, and we desperately want to start it off on the right paw - with chill vibes, wholesomeness, and pawsitiity. Luckily, we've got just the thing for you, because it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Week by week, we start your Friday morning with a brand new collection of awwdorable cat adoption stories. We love to find them, you love to read them, and everyone smiles in the process. There is absolutely no way to not smile and feel better about humanity when reading stories of kitty cats finally finding their furrever homes.

Like we do every week, we want to say a huge thank you to everyone who adopted this week. And of course, an even bigger thank you goes to those of you who adopted the beautiful senior cats, sick cats, cats with behavioral issues, rehomed cats, or other "impurrfect" kitties. The journeys with them may not be the easiest, but they will, without a doubt, be worth it.

"Adopted my first cat… As I've grown up in a childrens shelter and never was allowed to have a pet I am so happy that I am finally able to make my dream come true :) Say hi to our newest family member, Freyja!
Her old owners didn't vaccinate, nor sterilize her so we brought her to the vet and she was the calmest cat I've ever seen when getting her shots."
