Rescue cat 'Fishtopher' undergoes ameowzing transformation from “saddest cat” in the shelter to purrfectly happy after getting adopted: ‘To be loved is to be changed’

The only thing that brings us more joy than before and after adoption pictures is opening a new tub of cookie-dough ice cream. And since we're trying to cut back on sweets, we've been purrfectly enjoying a lot more pics of cute kitties thriving in their new furrever homes. They're just as sweet, but with none of the empty calories! In today's terrific tale of awwdoption success, we have a cat that went viral for having the saddest expression in the shelter. His name is Fishtopher, and after getting adopted, he almost looks unrecognizable. 

Fishtopher had a purrmenant sad face while staying at the shelter. So much so that the shelter posted about him on his adoption page and it went viral on Twitter, now known as 'X', which resulted in him getting hundreds of adoption requests. This sweet boy was then adopted and now lives with his new feline family and hooman servants. But now, instead of a frown, he wakes up every day with a smile on his purrecious face.
