What would you do if you had one million dollars? Well, feline fam, we would do a lot of things. Maybe we would set up our own animal shelter that would TNR stray cats, or purrhaps we would build the world's largest catio to give all the homeless cats a safe place to live. Of course, we would adopt them and feed them the finest tuna the world has to offer (maybe not the finest tuna, you'd be surprised how much premium tuna costs these days).

So, if you happen to come across a winning lottery ticket, send it our way so we can help all the kitties! Until then, we'll just keep giving shout-outs to all the hoomans who went out and changed the lives of cats this week. Each purrson adopted a sweet cat or kitten, and now these cats finally get to enjoy the love of a hooman. Scroll down to read all these wholesome cat adoption stories below!
