Yes, indeed there is a world record for adopting pets within a certain period of time.
The KC Pet Project in Missouri found themselves swarmed by would-be adopters of rescued animals. Their shelter animal cages were almost emptied by the end of the day.
Each one of these adopters are guaranteed forever-home material for their charges.
As a gesture of happiness and celebration, the volunteers of KC Pet Project had climbed into the cages where once-sad animals without a home slept in, happy that they were able to make a difference in the world.
