There are many animal shelters around the world. People interested in becoming pet parents can walk in and take one home for free. This seems like a win-win situation – a pup in need of a home gets one, and a person gets to become a mommy or daddy to an adorable fur ball. But sadly, this doesn’t happen all the time. Many shelters in Brazil are overcrowded. Pups are left in shelters by those who believe that they will receive better care there, but often times, shelters struggle to keep pups healthy and safe. Many fur balls may die from disease or depression while cooped up in shelters. Meanwhile, people choose to pay top dollar for pups in stores. In order to raise awareness about this issue, a Brazilian rescue group called Quatro Patinhas – or “Four Paws” – organized this eye-opening event. The organization had a pet store loan them their displays for one day. Every single pup and kit in the display cases were shelter animals longing for a home. Customers came in to take a look at the pets and many asked the prices of the adorable pups and cats. They were surprised when the answer was given to them – all the pets were free to take! Take a look at this video! At the end of the day, plenty of people took pups and kits into a new forever loving home, all because they decided to give them a chance. In reality, shelter pups and store-bought pups will love you just the same. Save a life – don’t buy one! Don’t forget to like and share! Feature Image Source: Associação Quatro Patinhas

We all know that cat baths aren’t much like human baths! There’s rarely any water involved, as most cats can’t stand that, and it has more to do with a lot of licking and grooming. While cats usually bathe themselves, sometimes, they’ll allow a trusted friend to do it for them. This video captures the essence of such a close friendship – but it’s far fluffier than you might have imagined! This fuzzy little kitten has decided to give her older friend, Pinecone, a bath. Pinecone has very fluffy white fur, and it’s adorable to see the young kitten grooming her with such care. It’s an explosion of poufy fur! Pinecone looks a bit disgruntled by the attention she’s getting from her smaller friend, but she graciously accepts her grooming. Let’s face it – how can anyone say no to a little kitty that cute? If there was a cat bathing business, the small kitten would be made for it! She carefully holds Pinecone’s head steady as she works, moving along her fur and making sure she doesn’t miss a single spot. Even though Pinecone seems unimpressed, we all know she secretly is as she enjoys her bath and appreciating all the love the kitten has to give! Take a look at this video! This video is so full of fluff that you’ll be unable to smile and grin at how cute everything is. Don’t forget to give it a thumbs up and share away with your friends!

Shopping in a mall can be fun or hectic, depending on what you’re there for and how much you enjoy the process in the first place. The more often you go, the more you notice that the same types of people seem to be in every shopping complex. Little did you know that dogs face the same problems, too! Without further ado, here are different dogs you see in a mall. 1. The Window Shopper This dog looks, asks about prices, and tries out products in shops, but never buys any. They might ask for a discount on that kennel, but no matter how low the price gets, you know they’re not going to put their money where their paw is. 2. The Bored Partner We’ve all seen this pup sitting on a bench waiting desperately for their partner to finish shopping. They slump over listlessly, keeping themselves occupied by playing Pup Treat Crush on their phones or taking a nap. 3. The Crazy Teens This group of young fur balls is loud, obnoxious, and way over the top. They howl about cute dresses or cool Kong toys and bark about the hottest actors and actresses in that Dogpool movie that you’re fairly sure they’re too young to have watched. Overall, they’re just way too loud. 4. The Bargain Hunters As soon as they hear the word sale, these fur balls come running faster than if you said “You wanna go on a walk?” You’ll never catch these pups buying anything at full-price, but the moment something is 50% off, their paws are all over that new collar and leash set that they don’t need. 5. The Couple Whenever you see these two pups, you wonder why they can’t just get a kennel. They don’t just link paws everywhere they walk, they also give each other kisses non-stop, all while their tails wag a mile a minute. You can deal with some PDA, but this is too much. 6. The Documenters Usually found travelling together, these dogs stop to take selfies for Doggygram every few minutes. It’s like they have to document every single thing they’re doing, from eating peanut butter spoons at café to going shopping at Forever Doggy-1. You’d think they were gathering evidence! 7. The Floater This fur ball has no direction whatsoever. They’re usually wearing earphones as they listen to the latest tunes from Justin Pupperlake, or they’re texting on their phones constantly. They walk extremely slow and stop suddenly to send out texts. Why come to the mall if you’re just going to do nothing??? 8. The Giant Family How can one family have so many puppies? It looks like there’s five full litters of pups in that group! You have to look twice to be sure it isn’t just a field trip for similar-looking dogs. Good luck if you end up lining up behind them at McDognalds. You’ll never get served. Are there any dogs we missed out on? Like this article and share it with your friends!
