Cat people, cat people, calling all cat people! Gather 'round, for you're about to see the most wholesome, most pawadorable, most heartwarming collection of posts on the internet. Oh yeah, it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Every single Friday, we start your day off by bringing you the cutest cat adoption stories we found on the web. Because the most pawsitive way to start any day is with a collection of adorable kitty cats finding their furrever homes.

As always, thank you to everyone who adopted a cat this week. And to those of you who adopted the 'less than pawfect' cats - the cats with health issues, the cats with behavioral issues, the distinguished senior cats - we say an even bigger thank you. The road may not be the easiest, but you have done something amazing, and you will be rewarded with the best companion you've ever had.

"This is Pasi and nobody seemed to want him for over a month and I must admit that me and my bf cracked up when we saw the picture, our Lil dude looked stoned or hungover and we were sold. He's 7 months now and such a handsome little boy"

"Someone moved away and left her behind..."

"... and I ended up first TNRing her and then adopting her because I couldn't find home for her.
She's truly the sweetest, most playful and adorable goofball who purrs almost nonstop, sometimes quietly even while sleeping. Cannot just comprehend who could leave her behind. I love her so much and am just so thankful to have her in my life."
