Here at Bored Panda, we love to celebrate these special bonds. That’s why each month, we eagerly gather photos of recently adopted pets. This June is no exception, so we’ve put together another collection of animals settling into their forever homes. Scroll down to see their adorable faces, and don’t miss our chat with social media creator Anastasia Duravkina about her cat adoption story. Anastasia has always felt a deep connection to animals and knew she would eventually adopt one. “I grew up with a cat, but he stayed with my parents when I moved out,” she recalls. “Ever since, I’ve been thinking about getting my own pet.” However, she understood the commitment it would take and wanted to be fully prepared. Weeks went by, but Anastasia couldn’t get the cat out of her mind. So when a free Saturday presented itself, she set off for the shelter. “The woman working there struggled to find the cat at first because there were so many animals there,” Anastasia says. “It broke my heart knowing they might never find their forever home.” “It was one of the best things I’ve ever done,” Anastasia says. “Every animal deserves a loving home.” Follow Bored Panda on Google News!
