If one is in the market for a pet, the moral option typically is to adopt, not shop. But would-be-adopters sometimes struggle with anxiety that, for whatever reason, animals in shelters must be “off” in some way.

So we’ve assembled some of the cutest pictures of animals that were adopted this March for your viewing enjoyment. Get comfortable, prepare to get whatever the animal equivalent of baby fever is, upvote your favorites and be sure to share your own thoughts and experiences in the comments down below.
