It’s that blessed time of the month again when Bored Panda makes you smile with heartwarming photos of rescue pets, as they’re being welcomed with open arms by their loving new owners leading them to their forever homes. We’ve collected some of the fluffiest and cutest pics of pets getting adopted and we hope they’ll keep you warm as August gives way to Fall.
Remember to upvote your fave animal photos and post your own rescue pet pics in the comment section! In case you need some extra wholesomeness and warmth today, we invite you to look through our previous animal rescue posts from July, June, May, April, March, February, and January. 2020 might be a difficult year, but it’s been great for pets in shelters, don’t you think?
