A meeting with a home and caring owners can transform a street cat so much that it’s almost unrecognizable in old photos. Below are ten examples demonstrating how the appearance of a home can work wonders for animals.

Feisty Kitten: Last July, this kitten was scared and sad, but now, as it has grown, it brings joy to its owners every day. And its poses are still just as lovely!

Remi found his home: For six whole years, Remi lived without permanent owners. Now he’s safe and feels right at home!

Transformation into a handsome fellow: Who would have thought that such a ragged and sad kitten would grow into such a handsome guy?

From nowhere to home: Almost a year has passed since this black troublemaker found himself at home.

Leo, with a loving owner: Leo was born under the stairs in 2012 and has been living with this man ever since. They both only get better with age!

Grateful kitty: Apparently, this funny cross-eyed little one is showing his gratitude.

Blind kitten: Eight years ago, this blind from birth kitten became the best birthday gift.

Found on the road: This little one was found on the roadside. Now he’s adored by everyone and spoils himself.

Heller and his owner: Keller developed an infection that led to the loss of his eye. But that didn’t stop his owner from loving him.

Harvin – a photo model: In the first photo, Harvin is just a scared little kitten from a ditch. And now he’s a real photo model.

These examples demonstrate that care can transform even the most unassuming pet at first glance. And perhaps, after seeing them, you might feel inspired to change someone else’s little life just as profoundly.
