There are not many feelings in the world better than walking out of an animal shelter with your new fluffy family member ready to make them comfy in their forever homes.
Whether it's just a few days or months on end, every second can seem like an eternity as they wait for the right family to finally come and accept them as one of their own.
So, it's understandable when they get attached pretty quickly to their new owners. Sure, some of the more timid critters might take a while to warm up to the change in their environment, but you can still sense just how happy they feel to be loved.
Take a look below to see the beautiful moment these precious animals realized they were on their way to (or had finally arrived at) their forever homes.
