Domestic pets are some of the most vulnerable members of our society, so it can be heartwrenching when they suffer due to human malice or negligence. Conversely, however, the stories of their rescue, adoption and recovery can be inspiring and heartwarming. That’s what the /r/BeforeNAfterAdoption subreddit is all about.
The subreddit actually accepts photos of all pets, but we’d like to give a special shoutout to the cats today that are living their best lives thanks to their loving owners’ care. If you need a pick-me-up or to restore your faith in humanity’s kindness and love, then this one’s for you!

He lived on the Texas streets for 2-3 years and survived the big freeze. So happy my son wanted ‘Whataburger’ that night at 1 am and I am so happy I said I would take him. Biscuit is the most spoiled now

#8 When I Was Asked To Take This Girl, I Was Told The Vet Didn’t Think She Had A Chance
She was found on the highway, burned paws, emaciated, alone. After multiple vet stays, 24 hour care at my house, she went into rescue and was adopted! This is why I rescue/foster on my own. I won’t give up!
