Nobody Will Adopt This Cat Because He Looks Like A Vampire… And He’s Desperate For A Home.

When you hear the tale of a vampire, your first instinct may be to cringe in fear. The myths of these fabled creatures have existed for centuries and have given many people nightmares. That’s understandable, given their proclivity for sucking blood, turning into bats, and hypnotizing you to do their bidding. But here’s one “vampire” you wouldn’t mind cuddling with on a dark and stormy night in front of a roaring fire.

Rory is a feline who lives at the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in England, and was dropped off by his previous owner when it was discovered that the poor cat would need to have surgery on his teeth.

The reason? His extra long fangs that give him the perfect vampiric look. However, his canines make it impossible for him to close his mouth all the way, which can result in damage to his jaw.

Thankfully, Rory deceived the dental surgery that he needed that makes him just as charming as ever and provide his jaw with some relief. Now he can eat his favorite meals of tuna in peace after a loving belly rub.

Those piercing green eyes are also something to behold, and you’ll be mesmerized staring into their wonderful color. It’s their hope that someone will fall in love with Rory’s unique look and take him to his forever home where he can live out his days, lying in the sun.

That kind of life would make any vampire jealous. Share away, people!

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

Protect Our Waters: Say No To Plastic Waste!

Plastic garbage. It’s something we all see everyday. Don’t be fooled to think that these plastics are merely an eyesore. We’ve become so accustomed to using plastic utensils, straws, water bottles and bags that it’s easy to forget the impact this has on our environment and climate. My name is Tyler and I’m in my fourth year of university in Canada, where I’m earning a degree in Environmental Studies. I'm also an environmental activist. Even for someone like me, it’s hard to avoid using plastic at places like fast food restaurant, and that needs to change. I’ve started this movement to highlight calls to action happening around the world, and to grow a community of everyday citizens pressing governments and companies to get serious about cleaning up our rivers, lakes and oceans . When we work together, and keep the pressure on, we really can make an impact. I know this firsthand, after collaborating with activists across Canada to successfully urge th...

Stop holding the (2018) Yulin dog meat & lychee festival in Yulin, (Guangxi) China.

This "festival" is an event that starts on June 21st of every year during the summer solstice and it lasts for 10 long horrifying days in which 10,000–15,000 dogs (as well as cats) are tortured and then consumed. However, it is estimated 25 million dogs are stolen, sold, bought, and eaten every year with the illegal dog and cat meat trade. A larger percentage of these dogs consist of pets stolen right from their loving families. The rest of the dogs are captured strays from the streets and some raised in dog farms. After these animals are stolen, bought, or captured they are then transported for days without any food or water, crammed in tiny cages together so tightly that they are unable to even move. At the yulin festival, throughout those days, these animals will be hung, burned, skinned, boiled, torched, dismembered, electrocuted and beaten...ALIVE..out in the streets for public view. But If that isn't bad enough, they intentionally torture these animals in f...
