Fortunately, there is a growing movement aimed at changing how we dispose of these canine...

Cat’s Custom Aquarium Lets Him See The Fish Face To Face

No One Wanted This ‘Grumpy Old Man’ Dog But Now He Has The Best Family
Humans aren’t the only ones who go through the aging process. Our pets also go through a whole aging process as well. Many times, our pets can even become “grumpy” in their old age. We had a cat that turned into a veritable grandpa with his attitude when he went past the age of thirteen. While older pets are precious in their own right, they are often overlooked at animal shelters. It’s sad but true. Many times, older animals aren’t adopted because people tend to gravitate towards the younger, more playful...

There is nothing quite like having a little kitten sitting on your lap, comfortably purring away. It is comforting, and one of the beautiful things in life that we all appreciate.
