These cats had their lives turned around after adoption.

When you go to the shelter and choose a kitten you are giving them the chance of a home with food and shelter, which is just as important as giving them the attention and love they need.

That is what makes this photoset so important.

Be careful, these before and after photos are very powerful, and will bring up countless emotions and tear at your heart strings.

These kitties are very lucky. They were given the chance of having the best life possible and at the same time received the one thing they needed most of all – a loving family.

They say that a cat has nine lives. These 11 kitties got the chance to have one very happy one.
