aww

It's time for this week's cat medley - a collection of cats and nothing but cats! 

This is where we celebrate cats in all their glory - from the crazy moments to the wholesome moments. From the awwdorable cat rescue stories to moments that are full of nothing but cats being total weirdos. We love cats and alllll of their aspects, and this is the corner of the internet in which we get to show our appreciation amongst other cat ladies and gentlemen without being considered even mildly weird. 

So, please, grab your cat, sit back, make sure that you're nice and snuggled up, and enjoy this collection of catness and cattitude. 

As cat ladies and gentleman, we cannot help but love all cats, whether it's big cats, whether it's underrated small wild cats, whether it's itty bitty kittens, ginger cats or white cats. Cats of every single variety make us happy. But... we have to admit that we do have a special place in our hearts for one misunderstood type of kitty - the black kitty. 

Black cats are so stigmatized and misunderstood. Nowhere near enough people appreciate what these black voids of joy and purring can offer. But if there's one place that we can always count on for black cat appreciation, it's twitter. And twitter has delivered the love for these black holes yet again.

If there is one thing that we always need some more of, it's positivity, good vibes, and pure cuteness. Animal posts of nothing but cuteness are the simplest way of putting smiles on our faces during the beginning days of the week, and we know that they have the same affect on you guys.

That's why every single week, we bring you a collection of animal cuteness. From stories of animals being absolutely awwdorable to stories of animals getting rescued and adopted all the way to the most simple yet pawfect pictures of cute animals. Something in this collection will make you smile, you have our guarantee. 

We hope you have a wonderful week, animal lovers!

We all love our pets so, so much. There is nothing that we love more than to have them snuggle up to us, asking for cuddles and showing their love to us. It warms our heart - always. But those wholesome moments are not the only moments that we love about having pets. If that's what having pets was all about, we think a whole lot less people would have them. No, some of our favorite moments are the funny moments. 

Whether it's our cats losing their minds in the middle of the night and running across our faces or if it's our dogs making an absolute mess in their moments of overexcited-ness. Those moments, as much as they might be mildly annoying, are what truly makes pet ownership worth it. 

And our pawsome ICanHasCheezburger users know that. So, when they shared those moments with us, and we realized that as we were reading them, we could not stop laughing, we simply knew that we had to let you guys see our favorite ones as well! 

There can be many reasons in the wild for which even the most loving animal mommas would reject one of their babies. Nature is cruel like that. And though we don't know the exact reason behind the abandonment of this itty bitty kitty in this story, we can only be thankful that it turned out the way it did. 

Abandoned by its mom, a newborn kitten with its eyes still closedand the umbilical cord still attached to it was thankfully found by YucateCosa's neighbor. Following that, after getting lucky approximately 53 more times, this kitten found its new forever home. Thank you to YucateCosa for taking care of her and giving her the love and care that she deserved. Few could have and would have done what you did, and we are so, so thankful. 

Oh my goodness, it's Monday again. Why? What have we done to make it so the weekend is so dang short? We haven't even had enough time to take our 5th nap this weekend. Well... nothing we can do about it. Suppose it's time to get up and make ourselves productive during yet another week. But, hold on, before you get our of bed, enjoy some wholesome animal memes.

Every single Monday, we make sure that you start the week off as pawfectly as possible with a fresh collection of heartwarming animal memes. Because if there's one thing that guaranteed to make us smile on these difficult Mondays, it's adorable animals providing as many good vibes as possible.

We hope you have the most wonderful week, everyone, and enjoy!

Not every animal is born the same. Not every animal goes through the same experiences. And whether it's experiences that caused it to become 'imperfect', like the bobcat who was dropped on its head by a hawk as a kitten and whose favorite toy is now fennel or the dog who was previously mistreated for barking slowly learning to bork again. Or if it's some disorder, like the disabled goldfish that couldn't swim because of a bout of swim bladder. 

All these animals deserve a second chance at life, and every person who gives it to them is a hero. 

grrumble on imguris our newest hero. Dory is a chicken born with a condition called scissor-beak or cross-beak, and though she's a fighter and always strives for a better life, without grrumble, Dory would not have made it. We're truly thankful, from the bottom of our hearts that you heled save this poor helpless creature, and we hope that you guys live a long, happy life together.

A lot of us in this community have pets - cats, dogs, parrots, and all the animal in between. We love animals. And we have animals because we love them and want to give them the best lives they can possibly have. But how far would we really go to take care of an animal? It's not easy, even if they're young and healthy. But adopting a senior pet, a blind pet, a deaf pet, or a sick pet is whole other kind of challenge. 

And what if one pet is all of those things together? Meet Nannoo. 

Nannoo's owner has recently passed away, and her family surrendered her to Nashville Humane. The shelter attempted to give her the best life they could, but nothing can really replace a forever home. Honestly, we are not sure that we would have been able to take on the task of adopting this dog, so we are truly thankful to MrPuckett for doing it and sharing the story with the world. 

We hope this wonderful senior doggo lives a long life, as healthy as can be, getting all the pets and snacks it could want. 

It's the weekend, ladies, gentleman and all other cat people. Thank goodness it's finally here. No, no, not because it means we get to chill and rest and do nothing, but because it being the weekend means that it's time for this week's cat twitter recap. 

Honestly, that's one of our favorite things about the weekend - going through the most ridiculous cat tweets, the funniest cat tweets, the most wholesome ones and most heartwarming ones. It gives us a little extra dose of pawsitivity to start the weekend with and truly makes sure that we start the week on the right paw. 

We hope you enjoy this collection of tweets, everyone, and may you have the most purrrrrfect weekend!

Gooood morning, friends, and welcome to the cutest, most wholesome and most heartwarming collection of adorableness you will see all week long: it's time to meet the newly adopted faces of the week.

Every Friday, we start the day off by putting a spotlight on the most awwdorable animals that were adopted this week. From the smallest itty bitty kittens to the largest, most distinguished and regal senior puppers. We love every single one of their stories, and knowing that they have all found their forever homes and are about to live the happiest lives simply makes us happy too. 

Thank you, as always, to every single person who adopted this week. For those of you who adopted animals with special needs, like senior animals, sick animals, or animals with behavioral issues, we say an additional thank you. Providing a home to an animal in need is an amazing thing, and you all not only have our gratitude, but you have also gotten yourselves a life-long friend. 

Pet adoption stories are always the most wholesome stories to read. Walking into a shelter and falling in love or helping a friend by taking a kitten from a newborn litter... it's our favorite kind of stories. Well, second favorite. Because what takes the number one spot for us are stories of the opposite, not of us humans adopting a pet but stories of pets adopting humans.

The story of the no-longer-feral cat that you're about to read is just like that. All it took was some love (and a little food) for a totally feral cat to decide that this human is its now. And being that we are too in love with cats for this world, this person had simply no choice but to take this kitty into its home. The rest... well, it's history. Very wholesome history. 

Oh, cats... there is no denying who whipped with are for them. Why else would we be have weekly gatherings to discuss just how purrfect they are. Yeah, that's exactly what this is - a gathering of celebration for anything and everything feline - from the crazy bursts of energy cats have in the middle of the night, barreling across our stomachs to the moments of pure joy when cats cuddle up to us. 

It is time for this week's cat medley! As a cat owner, you must embrace it all - the wholesomeness and the delinquency. Your cats will demand it, and you will give it and love it. Because a happy cat = happy us, and we would do anything to make them happy.
