Whenever we have a pet by our side, our life becomes more positive, which leads us to have better health, mood, and even help people with depression, those are some benefits — imagine how prisoners feel in a prison in Indiana, United States, when they were allowed to adopt homeless kittens.

It is even recommended by doctors that sick people should have a pet next to them, they help to have good vibes.

This beautiful story began with the Animal Protection League program, by implementing the F.O.R.W.A.R.D plan in Indiana state prisons. When this program began, cats found in animal shelters were taken to Indiana state prisons. Thanks to this initiative, they help the prisoners to have a better life while serving their sentences. This benefits both the prisoner and the cat, while the prisoner found who to spend his time with, the cat found a home. This program shows that prisoners also have hearts, despite having led a criminal life, they still show their best side, which they always keep hidden. It is normal for cats at first to be a bit distant with prisoners, but they are cats that probably suffered a lot in their lives. Best of all, over time, cats begin to give love to prisoners while they also receive love from prisoners.
