As the temperatures plummet and the world gets ready for winter, one IKEA store in Italy is going above and beyond to protect their homeless furry friends from the cold weather.

The store in Catania, Italy has opened its door to stray dogs, letting them relax and sleep in a warm place and avoid frigid temperatures.

An IKEA customer who happened upon a group of dogs snoozing near a living room display said, “My reaction was pure amazement. It’s not a common thing.”

The dogs are also fed at the store, and some have even been adopted by IKEA customers who just couldn’t resist those adorable puppy dog eyes.

Another customer said, “I felt a feeling of deep tenderness and great happiness in seeing dogs crouched in the exhibition space at the entrance of the IKEA. If all the stores that had the space would make a place of refuge for strays, I would be really happy.”
