Happy Friday, people! TGIF, right? It's been a long week, but we are finally so, so close to finishing it, and we really want to make sure to finish it in the most pawsitive way that we can - so that we start the weekend on the right paw. And there is no better way of doing that than by meeting the newly adopted faces of the week!

Week by week, first thing Friday morning, we bring you a brand new collection of the most wholesome, heartwarming and sweetest cat adoption stories we found on the web! If you're here, then you are pretty much guaranteed to start your day with a smile, because there's no way to look at these awwdorable kitties find their forever homes and not smile.

As we do every week, we would like to thank every person who adopted a kitty this week. And an extra large thank you goes to all of you who adopted the "impurrfect kitties', like the senior kitties, the sick kitties, the rehomed kitties and more. You are their forever heroes, and therefore, you are our forever heroes as well. Have a pawmazing weekend, friends!
