While it is sad that there is a need for adoption in the first place, luckily it is in and of itself a solution to the problem—a solution that quite a bit of folks seem to embrace.

And when folks adopt, it’s likely they take to the internet to celebrate their newest member (or members) of the family, sharing a picture of them being curious, mischievous, or downright adorable. Some of these find their way into our pet adoption of the month listicles, so here are the best ones for the month of November.

    She was just lashing out because she was scared/uncomfortable/confused by being at the shelter instead of at home. All she needed was to know she’s home, she’s safe, and she’s loved now, and will never have to face the shelter ever again to calm her down and bring out her real personality.

    It’s important to consider animal adoption stats for a minute because it emphasizes how crucial it is for them to find forever homes.

    Around 6.3 million companion animals are admitted to animal shelters around the US each year. That’s roughly equivalent to the populations of Maryland (6.17M) and Indiana (6.79M).

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Of them, dogs and cats go almost half-and-half with 3.1 and 3.2 million respectively. Luckily, this is a drop since 2011 when 7.2 million pets ended up in shelters.

    The shelter is always noisy. If she wasn’t born in a feral colony, then someone either lost her which is terrifying for a housecat, or they surrendered her there which to her is a huge betrayal, and she had no idea what she did for her humans to put her there. All that can make a cat scared, angry, confused, and uncertain, so she lashed out. Once she felt like she was finally permanently home, safe, secure, and loved, she calmed right down and became herself once again.

    Of these 6.3 million, only 4.1 are actually adopted, and about 810,000 of pets who enter shelters as strays are eventually reunited with their human companions.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Unfortunately, the reality is some animals end up euthanized. And reasons can vary from shelter overcrowding to the animals being incurably sick, aggressive, injured or suffering from something.

    So, adoption is definitely the option.

    Bored Panda has reached out to Julie Posluns, an applied animal behaviorist (ACAAB) and the founder of The Cat School, to learn more about adoption and adopted pet behavior.

    “A recently adopted cat may initially hide due to fear of their new surroundings; overcoming this fear could take days or weeks,” explains Julie.

    “As a cat becomes more familiar with its new surroundings and guardians, you should expect more exploration and social and playful behaviors.”

Bonding and for the elderly people who never talk, well they communicate more and generally for the best. Talking about a nursing home who adopted a cat. He goes everywhere, runs and plays in the halls. The staff is perfectly okay with Ulysse. He knows when he is in the way. A smart cat. He entered one day just "visiting" probably abondoned. Now he is part of the home. 40 rooms. 40 naps a day lol

    Julie continues: “Once a bond develops and your cat starts trusting you, they may start following you, seeking your attention and lying closer to you, or on you if you are lucky! The first few weeks and months are full of surprises as you learn more about your cat's personality.”

    And to increase your chances of becoming a cat cushion, it helps to have some soul-searching done before actually adopting—considering the energy levels, personality, size when fully grown and their fit in the family.

    If possible, spend time with the adoptee in the shelter and see how they react to you. And once you’ve set your (puppy) eyes on one, move on to prepping.

    “While time and patience are helpful when a cat is rehomed, there are methods to speed up the integration process,” explains Julie. “Setting up the environment so your cat has many places to feel safe—both hiding spots and elevated areas to monitor their environment can bring a sense of control.”

    Unfortunately in the US, many animal shelters, and especially pounds, don't have the money or the space to keep animals that don't get adopted. Pounds especially have a certain amount of holding time for the animals to be reclaimed, and if there's no space, after that time elapses the animals are euthanized. Years ago I got one of my dogs from a local pound. I was there looking for my lost cat, and this incredibly sweet pupper was there. I told the pound I'd have to talk about adopting him with my then husband. Pound told me that today was his last day, he'd be euthanized in the morning before they opened. I got my checkbook out and wrote a check. I immediately took him to the groomers. I went in with a black dog, and came out with a pale blond dog, that's how filthy he was! He was the best dog I ever had (don't tell my current dogs lol).

    Why do people euthanize animals if they don't get a home within time? It's horrible! They should keep them for as long as they need to until someone adopts them. The only reason they should do that to them is if their quality of life is really bad such as if they're older and/or they're like sick with something. But in general you shouldn't kill an animal if it's happy and healthy, but it's just not being noticed.

    They only have no kill shelters in Germany. German law states that all animals with that are considered healthy are not allowed to be killed.

    When we moved into our first house, my husband was in our new neighbor's garage and found a cat, starving, and so weak she couldn't walk. We took her in and I fed her with a spoon until she could manage eating on her own. Our neighbors were surprised to see her, as her owners had moved away and just left her on the street. They wondered what had happened to the cat. Dora lived with us for the next 18 years. She was a large beautiful brown tabby, and the sweetest cat ever.

    “Encouraging play, using food as enrichment in puzzles and for clicker training are excellent ‘ice-breakers’ to start your relationship on the right paw.”

    As for dogs, they too require a place of their own at home. So, set up a place with a bed and blanket for them to rest and introduce them to their food bowl and use food enrichment to help them familiarize with the environment.

    It goes without saying that finding a local veterinarian and looking into pet insurance are highly recommended.

    In the long run, and even more so with dogs, you can start introducing them to other pets around the neighborhood or even in other family circles.

    Pet training also comes in handy in many different situations. Training essentially helps you communicate better with the pet and for the pet to understand you better.

    Based on the eye color which apparently hasn't changed yet, I would say between 3 and 6 months, closer to 3 given his size.
