Recently, we published an article about pet adoption. The response we received nearly made our heads explode with cuteness. Picture after picture was uploaded of the adorable pet-children that keep you nurses company after hours.
We thought it only fair to share the good feelings with you, so we’ve compiled a collection of some of your pet pics below. Enjoy!

“My rescues are grateful and loving. Two Danes and two bulldogs. I come home from working all night and the bulldogs and I have our routine and they sleep all day with me. ANYONE walks in my room and boy will alert. Girl will bark and lick to death. The Danes are my outside warning system. They are my quiet when I get home from a ‘ruff’ night. The hubby works days and kids are in school. Who could refuse these faces? Raspuschia and Cos!” —Amie C.
