October nearing its end means more than just Halloween fast approaching. Here at Bored Panda, the end of the month typically brings a moment to appreciate people who have provided critters in need with a forever home; consequently, it’s also the time to marvel at the pics of their adorable additions to the family.
Scroll down for the October edition of wholesome pictures of adopted pets in their new homes and see for yourself how far a little love and care can go. Do it at your own risk, though—some of these pictures can really melt your heart.
In order to learn more about what life might be like if one chose to adopt a cat, for instance, Bored Panda turned to Professor of Biology and Director of the Living Earth Collaborative, Jonathan Losos, who agreed to share his insight on feline behavior; you will find it in the text below.

Taking everything into consideration, one thing is clear—life is never boring with a cat (as with most pets, likely). That might be one of the reasons people make the decision to adopt them, but no matter the reason—and no matter the pet, for that matter—we’re happy they do, hence this list of appreciation. For earlier editions of adopted critters in their forever homes, continue to browse last month’s list or feel free to go as far back as August.
