Today is Remember Me Thursday, a worldwide campaign that shines a light on orphan pets waiting in shelters and rescues, and the beauty and life-saving importance of pet adoption. Since that’s pretty much what we try to do 24/7/365, we think a day dedicated to helping the world #SeeTheLight about this stuff is pretty exciting.
As we thought about what we could do to shine a light on orphan pets for this special day, it struck us that we have lots of photos of cats who have come through the doors of PAWS on their way to their forever homes. Each time one of those kitties was adopted meant there was now a space at the shelter for another orphan cat waiting to find its forever family. In short, when one shelter animal is adopted, TWO lives are saved.
Here’s a collage of some of the PAWS cats who have recently been adopted. Friends and regular visitors will surely recognize some of these faces!

Of course, there are still lots of cats (and dogs) still here and elsewhere waiting to find loving homes. If you’re in a position to adopt, and happen to live in the Norwalk, CT area, be sure to check out all the adoptable PAWS cats here. If you live too far to do that, we can say with all the confidence in the world that there are so many wonderful and adoptable cats and other pet animals at your local shelter/rescue! Who knows? Maybe today's the day you'll find your new best friend, and save two lives while you're at it!

An important message for sure! And what a gallery of fantastic cats! PAWS sounds like a marvelous place full of dedicated people who are making a real difference for pets!
Thank you BOTH for all you do on behalf of so many cats in need of homes ... your contributions over the years ... and continuing even now, have been immeasurable.
Your devotion and commitment is amazing not just to the PAWS shelter but to the
community in which you live.
Ann, and June ... an adopted kitty who yes, save two!
I love seeing these old friends who have passed through the shelter onto a new happy life.
It’s a good day to celebrate devoted volunteers like Kevin and Tracey too!

I do remember most. LOved each one and wished them a home with loving parents.
I love seeing all the adoptions!
We've always gone to the shelter for our babies. They need us the most and never disappoint. What a lovely post of happy kitties that have found their forever homes.
Have a fabulous Thankful Thursday, my friend. ♥
I love the success stories!
We sure always enjoy seeing so many graduates and we're so happy you are there to help them find their happy. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
Thank you for all you do to promote cat adoptions. XO
Rescued is our favorite breed.
It's wonderful to see so many adoptees! ♥♥
A collage of purrfect little faces!
What gorgeous cats these guys are and we agree with Eastside Cats, Rescue is OUR favorite breed! Thanks for all the work you guys do! Purrs Marv and Mom
What a terrific post for #RememberMeThursday. We love PAWS, and the cats and dogs that end up there are very lucky. And we love you and Tracey for volunteering. We were delighted to see so many black kitties among the adoptees.

Thank you for all you do to help adoptable kitties find their hapy forever homes.
It is lovely to see all those who have been adopted.
Aww, I didn't know yesterday was Remember Me Thursday. That's great! And I love the collage of recent adoptees! I always love the follow-ups you do sometimes on the kitties who've been adopted. All of our babies are rescues and I can't imagine them not having been given the chance at long, happy lives.
That's so true! Most people probably don't realize that two lives are being saved. Thank you for shining a light on pet adoption every day!
Great post with all those precious souls. When I came home with the peeps, THREE lives were saved cos Pop might not have survived being home for 6 weeks if he didn't have me with him.
