45 Photos Of Rescue Pets That Will Definitely Chase Your Gloomy Days Away
Animals are truly the best happy pills, not only for their owners but also for the people around the world who are fortunate enough to see these adorable creatures on the Internet. No matter what's happening in our day, we can always rely on a photo of a cat or a dog to lift our spirits.
The number of animals still waiting to be adopted is continually growing around the globe, with millions of companion animals left in rescue shelters just waiting for someone to take them to their forever homes. The United States alone has over 6 million animals entering these shelters annually, most of which are cats and dogs.
Unfortunately, only about half of these animals get adopted each year, and it's devastating to know that a significant percentage of those entering shelters end up being euthanized. Animals are the purest beings on Earth, and it is our responsibility to care for them as much as we can.
That said, there are still many kind-hearted people who provide homes for these poor animals from rescues, and they all deserve the love reciprocated by their adorable pets. Raising a pet is not as easy as it looks, and these individuals deserve a medal for the love they give to these charming creatures!
