40 Photos Of Happy Pets Adopted This February

There’s no denying that animals have a way of wriggling their way into our hearts. Their loving eyes and adoring faces can melt us with just one look. Even their occasional naughty antics can give us joy if we approach it with a sense of humour.

Which is why it’s an amazing thing to adopt rather than shop. Freeing an animal from the confines of a cage to give it a loving and accepting home is a kind and meritorious act. Indeed, when you see the happy pics of the animals who were adopted, it warms the heart and soul. If you love a good wholesome selection of photos of the sweetest animals being adopted, scroll below for a look.

A neighbor said that his ex owner lives on our street and had kicked him out years ago, and he stayed wandering around on our street for years, sleeping under cars. I only began to notice him this last year. I thought he belonged to someone because he had a collar on.

He started coming up to us when we’d take our dog for a walk and he’d be the most loving and friendly cat. When I started petting him I felt the dirt on his fur and that’s when I realized he wasn’t being taken care of. He started coming to our door for food and started sleeping on our doorstep. Within a few days we took him to the vet, got him a check up and vaccines (vet says he’s 5-6yrs), bought him toys, bowls for food and water, litter box, a soft bed (even though he sleeps on our bed), and we ripped the dirty collar off him, gave him a shower.

He loves to cuddle. He used to be so skinny, now he never misses a meal and comes to the kitchen and waits.

Tigger, showed up a few days before Christmas on my folks’ porch. Folks thought he might be a nearby farm cat, but he didn’t leave after a day and a half. Cruz, the dog, refused to eat his dinner in the second day and kept whining at the door. He didn’t go to his bowl till Tigger was let in. He then waited for Tigger to eat his full of his food before he finally ate. They’re now absolute best bros

Libstak (edited): I’m guessing he is blind or those are some serious cataracts which can be fixed, won’t matter if he’s blind tho between his superior hearing and amazing sense of smell he will hardly notice.

#40 Meet Fred

40 Photos Of Happy Pets Adopted This February - 41

His name was Mercury but I call him Fred. He is only 5 months old and he’s huge I think. It’s only day one but I’ve never met a cat like Fred. He wants to be directly near me and I’ve never met a cat who didn’t eventually get sick of pets and want some space from you. I love Fred already. Also Fred is really vocal and I think that’s neat.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
