We need cats, and they need us. Each and every one of these animals deserves a shot for a caring family, a cozy bed, and a stomach stuffed with wholesome food. Sadly, there are millions of abandoned animals in shelters waiting for their new heroes to open their hearts and their doors so they can save them from suffering.
It’s quite wonderful to witness how much a little love can alter a neglected or abandoned animal’s course in life. So, the animal-loving staff at Embora Cats wants to honor both the rescuers who welcomed these sweet misfits into their forever homes and the animals themselves. We continue our monthly feature, which features adorably sweet images of recently acquired pets that will make you melt.
Let’s cheer for the animals who received the care they deserved and regain our trust in humans.

Every year, there are “about 6.3 million” companion animals available for adoption in the US. Giving an abandoned pet a second chance at life not only gives them a new lease on life, but it also frees up much-needed shelter space so that charities may aid other animals in need. While saving more than one life is very rewarding, you shouldn’t take this choice lightly.
We spoke to cat expert and clinical animal behaviorist Sally Chamberlain, who is based in the UK and specializes in mistreated animals, to find out more about the important issues people should think about before adopting a mistreated animal. The author of “Power Of The Purr” and the founder of “Karma Paws Pet Care” said that giving a pet a lasting home requires a significant financial investment.
She claims that prospective adopters should consider whether they can provide the time, resources, dedication, and understanding of the species they are adopting to assist the animals adjust to their new surroundings. They will have to accept the good with the bad, just like with any other form of commitment, she continued. After all, our canine companions can get sick and require medical attention. Cats also require frequent attention for things like a consistent routine, food, water, flea and worm treatments, grooming, a secure place to sleep, and enrichment activities like play and walks, among many other things.

Nonetheless, Chamberlain said that it is a beautiful thing to give a neglected pet a new life because “animals can give us so much affection.” Yet getting ready to take in a new companion is not a simple undertaking. People may not be aware of the many possible dangers associated with pet ownership.
Fortunately, we can prevent them by conducting research that enables us to make sure we are capable pet parents for the animals we select.
The animal behaviorist advised us to concentrate on learning why a particular pet was saved and how their needs can now be satisfied so that they can thrive and enjoy life once more.
“This can entail allowing them some privacy when they first get home so they can settle in and get accustomed to their new living situation without having to deal with a lot of human interaction.
It is crucial to obtain assistance for any behavioral or medical issues they may have from the vets or the rescue group.
While it’s necessary to keep in mind any problems the pet might have as a result of the environment they came from, it’s also crucial to look ahead and provide them with all they need to start anew.”

Chamberlain strongly cautioned against searching on social media or dubious places when thinking about rescuing a pet. Instead, she advised conducting thorough research and obtaining support from a respected animal rescue organization. The staff members can guide individuals through the procedure and ensure that they are able to provide these creatures with a loving home.
“This will reduce the possibility of adopting a sick animal or one with challenging behavioral issues. A respectable charity will have gathered as much background information about the animal as possible and will also interview prospective adopters to determine whether they can provide the animal with an appropriate home and are prepared for the commitment, “Added Chamberlain.

“Naturally, there are instances in which an animal shows up on your doorstep or in which you discover a sick or injured animal in the street. Although the animal will require veterinary care and efforts must be made to locate its owner, depending on where you live, you may need to report this to Animal Control “She continued, mentioning that someone might be desperately missing their companion.
13. Two weeks ago, I adopted this infant.
Chamberlain emphasized a few things we should know if a lost animal has entered your home. “The first step will be to ask a veterinarian or rescue organization to check for microchips in cats or dogs, as well as to search for any matches on lost pets websites and social media pages. It’s also advised to post “pet found” signs and ask around your area.”
But she advised being cautious. “You must verify that anyone who claims to be the owner of the animal is actually the owner. The owner of a rescue animal is frequently never located, and like with our own cat Monty, you might have adopted them without even trying.”
She said, “Monty came to live with us thirteen years ago, and we never were able to locate his owner. If you choose to adopt the animal directly, making arrangements for its neutering and vaccination is crucial for its welfare.
