Before And After

All you need is love, love, love is all you need. Ain't that the truth. When it comes to animals, love is truly all they want and need. A good home, filled with endless tender love and care, and any pet and flourish into their most beautiful selves. It's so moving to see the transformation, especially if they come from such a broken place, it's difficult to see animals look so ragged and in pain, but after they're taken into a good home, their transformation is the most beautiful of all. 

A huge heartfelt thank you to those who go out of their way to help animals in need, and who adopt those who need more attention and care. The world would do well with more people like you. 

Get ready to see some gorgeous glow ups:

Love is so incredibly powerful. It can transform anyone and anything, with the proper TLC (tender, love, and care). 

Whenever we come across a before and after images of a neglected animal and the transformation to healthy and happy -- we can't help but get emotional. Do be warned though, some of the 'before' images are quite graphic. We're just so happy someone got them in time to help be their true and best selves. 

We love all adopted faces, and we wish all those lovely animals a loving and happy forever home.

We love transformations -- especially if its cat-related! 

Imgur user, emilymartian, had decided to create the catio of her dreams and documented the process! 

The catio, named 'Pussy Palace,' has come a long way since 2012! And like any palace, there are rules that must be obeyed! 

Thankfully, they're all listed outside so you can read them before stepping into the kitty kingdom!

This is probably the cutest hashtag on twitter right now and people are cooperating by sending photos of the feline friends.  

Thanks to a prompt from @ellle_em, people on twitter started sharing photos of their cats when they first brought them home alongside photos of their cats now. And these cat glow ups are all you'll need to brighten your day.  

Reddit user, u/RootersRevenge, recently bought his first home a year ago and decided he wanted to make a room for his adorable pets, a Siberian Husky, a Golden Mix, and a Norwegian Forest cat. So thus began this project he documented and about "50 trips" to Home Depot! Check out the process and cool result below! Thanks for sharing, u/RootersRevenge!

This brother with a heart of gold is going viral. When his little brother passed, he took it upon himself to adopt his brothers two Bengal cats, Benji and Nala. Not only did he take in the cats, but he also took it a step further and created a cat jungle, within this basement, in honor of his brother and in order to provide the best he can for his brother's beloved cats. See and read the complete story and transformation here.

He managed to create this paradise jungle all on his own with no knowledge or experience, stating, "I know this probably will look quite amateur, and that's honestly because it completely is. Going into this project, I had literally zero experience doing anything I did, I just knew I wanted to do something awesome for my little brother and his cats."

A GoFundMe page has been created to help create an everlasting paradise for these beautiful cats.

When it comes to celebrating your dogs birthday, we always go back and reminisce about the first time we help them in our arms. And that's exactly what Twitter user @Munoz0702 did. Well, that and a small birthday tribute to his best friend! Funny enough, this inspired other twitter users to share their own pups' journeys to adulthood in picture form, and we love it! 

Wow, that's a lot of hair... 

If you have a pet, or more specifically a dog... you will know that amazing reaction they get when you ask them..."whose a good boy?" They just look at you and then all of a sudden understand (or maybe they don't) that they are!

Getting a dog changes your life, that's for sure. That's just what happened to llustrator John Huang when he started sharing his life with his golden retriever, Maimai.
