Fisherman Saves Drowning Rabbit From The Water
When on a fishing trip, most people wouldn’t expect to find anything other than fish. But sometimes, you might run into something unexpected that could turn a fishing trip into a rescue mission. It’s not unheard of for men who are out near water to find an animal in need, like the fisherman who recently saved an owl while fishing. For a couple of fishermen out on a trip, their day quickly turned into a rescue mission when they saw a rabbit struggling in the water. Photo: Pixabay/stefanoceruti63 Rabbits aren’t natural...
Cat Loves Getting Kisses From His Mama
Even though cats are often thought of as being aloft and cold, they can actually be quite affectionate. Some cats just can’t get enough pets, love, and attention from their owners, and sometimes it’s overbearing! I had a few cats growing up and each one was different. Some would love to be held 24/7 and cuddled, but others would attack you the moment you tried to pick them up. One thing they all had in common, however, was that they didn’t like kisses. Or at least, if you tried to give them kisses they didn’t take it...
15-Year-Old Blind Dog Loves Playing In The Snow
15 years is a long time for a dog to live, and when they make it to that age, we often think of them being sick and weak. They may struggle to eat or walk and spend a lot of time sleeping. But every now and again, we hear of a dog in his golden years living his best life – and that’s exactly what Smiley the golden retriever was doing. 15-year-old Smiley was not only facing old age but blindness as well. He had a rough start to life, being born into a puppy mill to make the breeders a quick profit. Sadly, one of the many issues...
Badly Injured Cat Gets A Second Chance At Life

Dog Given Away To Cruel Home Gets Help From Kind-Hearted Kids
Phoebe was given away, “free to a good home.” Sadly, the home she found was anything but good. Phoebe’s life with her new owner in De Doorns, South Africa was filled with neglect and cruelty. The poor dog was left chained on a tiny rope outside in the scorching heat. She didn’t have enough food or water and her rope wasn’t even long enough for her to walk around and go potty. Life was looking pretty bleak and it’s unclear how long Phoebe would’ve survived in those conditions if help hadn’t...
Deployed Solider Rescues Cat With Kittens And Brings Them Home With Her
When Sergeant Kelsey was deployed to the Middle East, she didn’t know exactly what to expect. Life on deployment can be varied and unexpected.

As the non-profit Guardians of Rescue shared in a Facebook post, Kelsey ended up finding a stray cat in need of help early on in her deployment.

Woman Looks Out Window And Captures Sweet Moment Man Introduces Puppy To Cat
Dogs and cats are known enemies, but sometimes, they can get along quite well.

Photo: Pexels/Teela Hudak They happened to be walking by Cheyenne’s apartment when she looked out the window and saw the sweet...
Dog Honored As Hero For Saving Koalas After The Australian Bushfires
Bear, the bushfire hero, has received a prestigious award for his koala-saving efforts. The bushfires that devastated Australia in 2019-2020 left much of the land burnt and barren and countless animals were killed.

Once the smoke cleared, rescuers worked diligently to find any survivors that may be out there. One of the best rescuers ended up being a six-year-old Australian Koolie named bear.

Whale Caught In Lobster Trap Struggles To Move, Fisherman Dives In To Help
Five friends set out for a fishing trip off the coast of Point Loma, California. Just as the sun was going down, they spent an hour and a half trying to reel in a 180-pound blue fin tuna, and were successful.
