'I adopted the "old" sick cat that nobody wanted': 21 Cutest Cat Adoption Stories of the Week for a Pawsitive Day

Happy Friday, friends, and welcome back to the cutest, most heartwarming thing you are going to see on the internet. After a crazy week like this, you guys not only deserve a break, but you deserve doing something during this break that is going to make you smile. It's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Each and every Friday morning, we bring you a brand new collection of the most wholesome cat adoption stories of the week. From the itty bitty kitties to the beautiful senior cats, they all deserve a home, and we are so, so happy to see them finally get it.

As always, we want to say a huge, huge thank you to every person who adopted a cat this week and in the past. And of course, like we always do, we want to give an extra shout out to every person who adopted an "impurrfect" cat - the senior cats, the sick cats and every other feline who needs a little more love and care than most. We wish all of you many, many happy and healthy years together.

"I adopted the 'old' sick cat that nobody wanted at the shelter. No regrets"

via Ocaona
It's astounding to us how a seven year old cat is already considered “old” in so many shelters. Heck, we have heard of cats as old as one being considered “too old to adopt”. So, we are so happy to see that there are people out there who still see these cats for the amazing pets that they can be and giving them a chance.

This little guy even looks happier in these pictures. This is what a little love can do for an animal like this. A chance - that is all that they need, and these cats will return your love tenfold. We know that you and Adonis have many happy years ahead of you.
