She was a stray majority of her life, and was up for adoption for several years before I took her in. She’s had her pelvis broken in a standup against a stray dog, stood up for herself against other stray cats, on top of having stomatitis. Her foster mom was looking after here for some time and held onto the hope that someone would take Whisper in, since she really loved being indoors and snuggling. I hope I can give her a happy life for however long she has. She’s a strong little girl with such a gentle spirit.

When we got him they said he was 10 weeks old. We thought no way cause he was way too big as a kitten. We thought he was older.

Adopted two little brothers who had gone from one shelter to another due to the shelter running out of room. They're both 4 months old!!! The smaller boy of the two with the green collar is named Honey and the larger yellow collar boy is Butter!
I've been so overjoyed by their presence in mine and my partners lives. I've been wanting my own cat for decades now.... I can't wait to see them grow and show us what their personalities can become!

The cat distribution system works in mysterious ways. We adopted this cat from the shelter 4 (!!!!!) days ago and she was incredibly shy, timid, and scared. She would hiss at us when we came into her room and would hardly leave her igloo bed. Fast forward to now, she is quickly becoming my Velcro cat. After two days I coaxed her to come to the living room with treat bribery, and to my surprise she jumped up on the couch with me. Now, she follows me around, comes when I call (usually. She is still a cat after all), and sleeps curled up next to us on the couch. I was expecting weeks of aloof-ness from her. She truly was meant to be with us🖤🐈‍⬛

This is my bestest boy Ares or pud pud as I call him, he's a retired bomb detection dog and was retired early as he's gone deaf (not a work related injury). He's been a working dog all his life until we got him and now he's a couch potato. He was trained to be rewarded with a tennis ball so he goes crazy over any ball. He never had toys before so we bought him an array of different toys to see what he would like and he didn't know what to do with them, but slowly he's learned how to be a dog and play. He's my 5th dog, second lab and fourth lab throughout our family, but he's my wife's first ever dog, she was never a dog person before and didn't understand the relationships and bonds people form with their dogs untill he came into her life, and now she is a full on dog mum who pays more attention to him then me hahaha Just wanted to drop in and introduce our boy

Recently adopted this cute fella from rescue centre. He is only 1.9yo and he was from an animal cruelty case😭 Cant imagine how much he has been through! Glad that he is slowly opening up to me way to go💗

Hello husky people I just wanted to show off our beautiful new 8-year-old rescue. I wanted to share my great story. My daughter found him roaming when she got off the school bus, naturally brought him home where we kept him overnight, fed him gave him water and had animal control take him to the shelter the next morning. Turns out he was chipped but when they took him to his address associated with the chip the people no longer lived there so they kept him at the shelter for 7 days. After 7 days he became property the shelter and we adopted him immediately. He is kinda skinny that we will work on. And had insanely overgrown nails, and needed a major brushing, which we took care of on day 1.
And here we are 2 weeks later with Mr. Juno. He's not as loud as I was led to believe husky are. Like not even a single bark yet. And we are just now getting to enjoy watching him playing with his border Collie brothers toys. And sometimes an occasional kitty toy.
Oh and boy she's he love my daughters bed. It's seriously the comfiest place on earth he thinks.

Charley-Pride is so naughty lol! Are all dust kitties crazy?
We also adopted his sister who is a calico. She's very sweet. CP is sweet but he's also quite crazy. He climbs the curtains, the dog (Great Dane), his people. He'll hide and attack you. We've enjoyed the laughter he brings for sure

Took in a stray, and it was friendly enough that I was convinced it would be chipped, or someone would claim it. After hearing nothing, and it not having a chip, I think I have gone from an old dog lady, to an old pet lady. This little thing is so sweet. The appointment to adopt it officially is in a few days. It even is starting to accept my dog in the same room. Not qorhin 3 feet. That means a hiss, but if they are 3 feet or more apart they just ignore eachother. It's pretty cute.

I adopted two 6 month old kittens (brother and sister) about 3 weeks ago. They are adorable and have adapted really well to their new home. They greet me when I get home from work and like plenty of snuggles and pets. The problem is around 8 or 9pm they turn into absolute terrorists.
They start playing which is really cute because they hide and stalk each other around corners. But then they chase each other like maniacs around my small apartment knocking things over, climbing my curtains, jumping and making all kinds of noise. I have put away everything I possibly can so only the bare minimum is sitting out but they still wreak havoc for hours.
They were in the bathroom exclusively for a few days when I first got them and they did the same thing in there.
I know cats are more active in the evening so I’m not really concerned that it’s abnormal but holy moly is there anything I can do?? I’m mostly concerned about the noise bc I live in an apartment and I’m worried my neighbors will complain.

Adopted this sweetie pie over the weekend. She’s 3 (older than our other cat but half his size) and was rescued from someone with WAYYYYY too many animals. She’s a princess (a big sweetie and snuggle bug but she’s also a spunky/ feisty gal)

She made it home to the farm! She has met a couple of goats, a chicken, the cat, French Fry, and the pack!!! Draven, silo, and goose all welcomed star immediately. She had her tail rem9ved when she was spayed but it did not stop her from wagging her NUB!!!! She's an angel and has been nothing but a pure sweetheart. She's got a long way to go still before she is gonna be full time with the rest 9f the pack but she's here, safe, and in a very loving place. She immediately attached to my daughter and it is a beautiful thing!!!
I want to thank Be Their Voice Rescue for helping facilitate this and going way above and beyond for picking her up from the shelter, getting her spayed and the surgery for her tail. Without the pledge money yall put up she would have had to pay for it all out of her own pocket. Just to make sure I made a donation to her as well. Maybe it will help another one of us get a dog from her organization!!!
I encourage anyone that can foster or adopt to do so! There are a lot of dogs that aren't as lucky as Star, Draven, Goose, and Silo... many live a very short, sad existence in a cold, hard place just waiting to be put down. Rescue animals will always be better than purchased animals. The rewards will be higher and the love unlimited! Please help if you can, even by pledging $1.00!!! It all goes to help these wonderful animals get placed in a loving home. I will keep yall updated on her progress!

I’m so grateful for this community! Neckbone was adopted this morning, I’m not sure if his new owners saw him here but I’m sure your upvotes got him some attention! I’ll be taking a new dog out tomorrow. If you are interested in adopting an amazing dog like Neckbone, visit www.lifeline.org

We brought her home last night. I work at an animal shelter and will bring her back for alteration once she reaches 2 lbs. First kitten I’ve adopted in my 10 years of working there!

She’s our first husky and we are so obsessed with her. Her favorite things to do are camp, hike, give us attitude, go to Yellowstone, pretend that she doesn’t know her name and cuddle in bed. We feel so lucky that she’s a part of our family. They really are the best dogs!

murdoc is the one with white on his chest, paws, and face, and stuart’s orange all over! my sister, a borderline animal hoarder, found out her non-spayed, outdoors cat was pregnant. we were already looking for two new additions to the family, but both my parents preferred to adopt a kitten and puppy duo from a breeder. it took a lot of convincing, but i persuade them into letting me adopt murdoc and stuart. now, they are happy, fat, and healthy. murdoc spends all his time in my room and cries if he isn’t in there with me, and stuart spends all his time in the same cat tower shown in the first photo.

I just adopted this adorable female beardie today. I'm thinking she's leatherback and maybe some lemon or hypo?
She is supposed to be going on 2.5 years old and it's clear she was loved...maybe a bit too much.

My boyfriend and i adopted Lucy from Dogs Trust about a month ago. She is the best decision we have ever made. Snores louder than said boyfriend!

My partner and I adopted a german shepherd puppy recently. We already have a cattle dog ((4). Advice is welcome, figured I had some functional knowledge dude the cattle dog is high drive but boy i was wrong. She likes puzzles and sticks and balls. But i can’t get her to stop biting. Picture of the girl. Help lol

I adopted this sweetheart today, shes a 9 week old purebred Pyrenees, Ive worked with these dogs before, but only in the kennel I used to work at for aggressive dogs. What should I know/any tips or advice? Thank you all!!! Have a great day!
