Rescuing animals is a life-changing experience for both humans and animals. It gives humans the chance to save and look after another living creature. On the other hand, it gives the animals a new chance at life, particularly those that have been neglected, abused, and abandoned.

To show how special adopting pets is, here are 50 photos of rescue pets living their best lives in their new homes.

1. From a cardboard box

This poor girl was found in a cardboard box. It’s hard to imagine how someone could leave such a pretty cat like that. Just look at its coloring!
