A tiny calico kitten who was rescued with an injured leg was adopted by a US army veteran who became disabled in combat.
Sophia (formerly Sprinkles) came to San Diego Humane Society with a severely injured leg. “We believe her umbilical cord wrapped around her rear leg and cut off her circulation,” the shelter said.

http://www.petfinder.my/pets/65486
The kind owner passed away recently, leaving behind his precious, most-loved furkids, Gigi and Bobby, together with other rescued strays.
The late owner's daughter has been temporarily paying for the house's rental in order to keep these animals sheltered, but it is extremely costly, and the landlord also wishes to reclaim the house.
Gigi is a little princess to the late owner, always accompanying him to sleep on the bed, stealin...

FBI Makes Animal Cruelty a Top-Tier Felony – For Good Reasons!
Young people who torture and kill animals are prone to violence against people later in life if it goes unchecked, studies have shown. A new US federal category for animal cruelty crimes will help root out those pet abusers before their behaviour worsens and gives a boost to prosecutions, an animal welfare group says.
For years, the FBI has filed animal abuse under the label "other" along with a variety of lesser crimes, making c...

A pretty girl who's affectionate, loving and elegant. Can you imagine that just weeks ago she was skinny, malnourished and suffered from serious diaphragmatic hernia?
Well, all's good and Hida has recovered fast and fine. All she needs now is a good home for her to purr in!

"I dreamt I was roasting marshmallows..."
Rufus, a goofy Pharoah Hound, lives with Sara Rehnmark in Santa Monica, California. Sara describes him as "a funny dog who smiles on command", but the adventures Sara envisions for Rufus when he's sleeping make all the rest of us smile.
Many of us look at our sleeping dogs, their paws twitching, and wonder what they're dreaming about. Without disturbing the slumbering Rufus, Sara gives us a few ideas.
Need more ideas? Check out the sweet animals ...

The Land Of A Thousand Dog Smiles 3rd Feb 2015, by PetFinder.my
Gluta’s owner, Sorasart Wisetsin, originally came across the sweet dog on the streets of Thailand in October of 2012. At the time he was living in a dormitory with a strict no dogs policy. He was drawn to her from day one and started giving her food and love. Instantly he noticed how friendly and clean the dog was, which made Wisetsin all the more motivated to find a way to look out for her forever.
Since the dormitory wouldn’t allow Gluta inside, Wisetsin made the decision to adopt the d...

Police dogs meh, police cats YEAH!
Though their K-9 cousins get most of the glory, the feline fuzz have put their own fair share of dirty rats behind bars. Here are six kitty constables ready, willing and able to flex the long arm of the claw... if they're in the mood. (Clockwise from upper left...)
Paul Blart-style mall cops might just put a little fear into galleria evildoers if they conducted patrols with a pair of black cats. For the time being, however, we'll just have to make do with ...

Chicken Police 29th Jan 2015, by PetFinder.my
When two rabbits go at it in a down & dirty barnyard brawl, the cops from the coop intervene.
We often underrate chickens' intelligence, and now it seems we're underestimating their EQ as well. Let's make friends with the chicken police, not food!

The Cat House Of Dreams 28th Jan 2015, by PetFinder.my
Keeping our cats indoors keeps them safe from traffic, falling off balconies, being attacked by dogs, and many other perils.
It's important, though, to remember that cats love climbing to high places and sharpening their claws on trees.
We may not all be able to create an interior space as idyllic as this one, but this video has some great ideas that we can use in our own homes to keep both us and our furry ones happy and healthy.
Meanwhile, just revel in this man's creation and his cats' ...
