Sh!t happens. Sweet adoptable kitty guy Freedom’s been at AARF for 6 years, almost his whole life. This whole time, he’s gotten only 2 applications, and no meets. Even though he’s an awesome li’l (just 7lbs!) dude who loves people, cats, and dogs! Why? Well… sh!t happens. 1/3

Agreed. We adopt older kitties. Below is our current kitty, Elvis. We adopted him a year ago, when he was 9. If you can't tell from the picture, he's a sweetheart...

Hey! It’s Change The World Wednesday, so let’s get Simone a home! This sweet senior been waiting at Chesapeake Cats & Dogs Rescue (MD) for 1527 days now! 😿 B/c she’s older? ‘Just a brown tabby’? A little shy at first? Whatever! Loves getting petted, other cats. ADOPT OR SPREAD THE WORD! (More 👇) 1/2

Ever wonder what the little folds in cat's ears are for? It's where "don't eat that" and "no" go.

Researchers claim that cats are the most biologically perfect creatures on earth. The “researchers” ⬇️⬇️⬇️

😜

hey Baltimore/DC (and environs) folks: the adoption countdown is at SIX WEEKS surely one of you needs a pair of kittens who are being socialized from practically day one, and someone who needs an incredibly sweet and gentle one-year-old mother who just wants constant belly rubs and head scritches

We've put out a plea for SHASTA before, but this guy really needs a home. An oversized senior gentleman, Shasta loves children and just needs a quiet couch to hang out. This 8yo lost his bonded brother and home at the same time, and hasn't really recovered. Someone please love him! #Tucson (23/45)

After your summer vacation, head out to the local animal shelter or rescue to take home a new family member. It's great to establish them in your home before the crazy start of the school year. Don't overlook the shy kitties. They can be the sweetest loves you've ever had once they trust you.

I’ve known a lot of cats, but I’ve never seen one display as much affection for a dog as Beignet shows for Belle, the 16-yr-old golden retriever.

She likes uppies.

No creature on earth loves resting their chin more than Ziggy loves resting his chin.

Adopt one of these pups and we will gift you a $50 Chewy gift card!

Marcel had a little emergency Monday night. He is home and fine now, but it was scary for a while and we had an overnight stay at the emergency vet. It was so terribly quiet here without my precious tornado man. Hug your babies and appreciate every moment!

I’m sorry to report that Screaming Man has not yet found his home. He’s SO friendly. Maybe if they gave him another name?!? www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adop...
