'The shelter reached out saying her sister missed her dearly sooooo': 20 Wholesome Cat Adoption Stories to Help You Start the Day With a Teaspoon of Pawsitivity

Another week of madness is coming to an end, friends, and we could not be more ready for the weekend. We are ready to rest and recharge, to get as much pawsitivity in as we can during the weekend. And there is only one proper way to do that. That is why you are here. It is time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week!

Each and every Friday, we bring you a brand new, wholesome-as-heck collection of adorable cat adoption stories. We search every corner of the web for the cutest and most heartwarming ones - to get your Friday started on the right paw. As always, of course, we want to say a huge thank you to every single person who adopted a kitty this week and in the past, and an even bigger thank you goes out to everyone who adopted the "impurrfect" cats - the senior cats, the sick cats, the rehomed cats and every other feline who needs a little more time and care than most. We wish you all many, many happy and healthy years together!

This is how it should be, people! Do not separate soul cats. They are each other's families just as much as you are going to be theirs. This way, they will be happier, and you will be happier as well. Thank you for doing this.
