Cute Animals

My neighbor's dog got out and took one of my boots from my front porch.

Franklin is my tiny 2 pound chihuahua. He is the ultimate drama king when it comes to being separated from his mama (me)! Whether I’m a few feet away or gone for more than 5 minutes, he turns into a micro-mini howling wolf! This is just one example!

Two lizards climb on top of the dog, completely unaware of what's about to happen to them.

Molly cleans her face like a cat even though she's actually a dog (breed mix is half maltese and half Sophia Petrillo from the Golden Girls). She is 14 years old, and we think she might be an undercover cat.

My husband had just finished snow plowing a path through our backyard, something we always do after big snowstorms so our dog can run outside. Once he was done, our mini Goldendoodle, Barkley, took off running down the path. When Barkley reached a turn, he suddenly slid off into the deep snow and briefly disappeared, then popped right back up and kept running like nothing happened. The whole moment was lighthearted and funny, and Barkley was completely fine. Credit: Sheila Dioda

Rip was sitting in the dining room over the heater vent when it came on and the long hair on his chest reminded me of Marilyn Monroe standing over the vent on the street in her video.

Peanut the sassy bunny does NOT want her cage cleaned, and sabotages all attempts by her Dad to clean up. The dustpan is her mortal enemy but her impressive dustpan-throwing skills know no limits and she won’t stop until she gets to keep her house messy. Credit: Dani Cavender-Handley

@Sōngshǔzhǔbāo shared a video showing squirrels climbing the walls of a building. In the video, two squirrels are already scaling the exterior walls, moving upward along the surface. A third squirrel is first seen climbing a nearby tree before leaping across and jumping onto the building wall, then following the other two as they continue climbing. The video captures the agile movements of the squirrels as they navigate the urban environment.

Nina knows no gravity as she will keep the ball from touching the ground for extended periods of time and laughter.

Can is the calm, steady one who understands the routine, while Knuckles is the big puppy doing his best to hold the sit.

An unexpected passenger left a Starbucks employee totally stunned. The look on the woman’s face when she realized what was in the vehicle says it all. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see the young woman’s reaction and the unexpected passenger who elicited such a response.

People absolutely love animals, most people anyway. I’m sure some individuals might publicly confess to stating their dislike of those cute, furry and four-legged creatures. I’m not sure I know anyone like that, and you might not either, but I’m almost positive those individuals do exist.

Anyway, pet owners – past and present – adore their animals. It quickly gets to the point that doing anything without them feels downright wrong. After they enter our lives and homes, they become full-fledged family members in no time at all. We take them here and there, give them this and that. Why? Well, because we love them. It’s as simple as that.

In a clip posted on YouTube, one man took his massive animal pal, a bull, through a Starbucks drive-thru. Now, when was the last time you remember seeing a bull in a drive-thru? Sure, people may take their dogs or even their cats to the popular drink vendor, but a bull? That’s pretty unheard of, or at least I’ve never heard of anyone doing that.

So, knowing that seeing a bull in a Starbucks drive-thru is an unusual sight, it makes perfect sense why the young woman in the video reacted as she did. It’s safe to say that any one of us would have responded similarly. Your eyes would widen, and your jaw would drop, too, if you looked out the window and saw a bull in an SUV.

Regardless, her response and how, after the initial shock, she basically rolled with it. It just goes to show that you never know what the day will bring.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This dog and squirrel’s longtime friendship is the cutest thing you’ll see today. While the two may seem like the most unlikely of pals, they have been hanging out together for years. Watch the short but adorable clip to hear more about these two buddies, who have been friends for quite some time.

Can anyone have too many friends? Is there a number at which people say they’ve reached their capacity for friendships? “No, I’ve gotten all the pals I need right now. Come back and try again later.” I believe, and likely so does a majority of the population, that the answer to that question is a very emphatic no.

We can never have too many friends. It’s impossible to reach a maximum capacity in terms of buddies and pals. You can never have too many individuals whom you can turn to and trust during a time of great need and difficulty. Friendships make life all the better, creating a fuller and richer experience. The person with many friends is blessed, while the individual with few or even no friends is lonely.

A  clip posted on YouTube details one of the oddest, most unusual friendships you will ever hear. It mentioned how a bird and dog, Helen and Oliver, have a strange but strong bond.

This is not some friendship that just started overnight, either. The video’s title indicates that Helen has visited Oliver every day for the past five years. That’s commitment and dedication! It also points out how Helen will react whenever Oliver goes out for his daily walks, and how Helen will even, on occasion, bring her babies with her while she spends time with Oliver.

Friendships are beautiful things. They can happen anywhere and everywhere, becoming pals with people from all walks of life. As it turns out, as shown in the video, you don’t even have to be of the same species to forge a beautiful and unspoken bond.

John 15:13 “Great love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.”

This dog’s creative way of scratching an itch is absolutely hilarious. The pup had to become inventive in order to get to a hard-to-reach itch. Watch this short but hysterical clip to see what measures this canine took to reach an itch on its body.

Have you ever had an itch that, regardless of how much you twisted and contorted your body, you could not reach? Of course you have. We’ve all been there, and it’s one of the worst, most annoying feelings in the world. If we could just reach that itch, we would feel so much better.

Until we’re able to scratch that itch, that’s all we’ll be able to think about. You will drive yourself crazy thinking about the spot that has, for whatever reason, started to itch. It will be the only thing you can think about, and because of that, the itch becomes even worse. It becomes a vicious cycle until we find a way to scratch that itch. But when we finally do scratch that itch, there is arguably no better feeling in the world.

In a posted clip, this type of situation must have been what one adorable pup was experiencing. The animal had an itch that it desperately needed scratched. While animals are pretty flexible, able to put their bodies into odd positions, they still cannot reach every spot. So, when this happens, what is a pup to do?

Well, when this happened to one canine in China, it got creative and used its surroundings to help. The dog used the bottom of a scooter, rubbing itself back and forth on the bike. It may not have been a conventional method, but it still managed to get the job done, and when you have an itch that is driving you crazy, that is all that matters.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This adorable cat is so affectionate and friendly, it’ll melt your heart. One might be able to say this is the most loving cat imaginable. How could you ever find a more warmhearted, tender and sweet feline? Watch the short but precious clip to see just how friendly this sweet little guy is to everyone he encounters.

People love and adore animals. Even if they are not current pet owners, odds are good that they still have a considerable soft spot for those cute, furry, four-legged creatures. How could you not? Life is always a better, fuller and richer experience when animals are around. No one could possibly disagree with that statement.

Now, when it comes to what animal makes the best pet, there is a deep division. Generally, individuals fall into two categories – dog people or cat people, and there is usually little to no crossover. You are either one or the other. Those who consider themselves dog people more than cat people typically do so because dogs are often friendlier and more affectionate than cats. But that is not always the case.

A clip posted on YouTube captures what is arguably the friendliest, most easy-going and affectionate cat ever. Meatball seems unable to get enough of its owner as the feline constantly lovingly rubs its face against the young woman. The cat will literally grab her face as it licks her and puts its face on hers. It’s an adorable sight!

“He has to always be showing me affection,” the woman said.

However, Meatball’s owner is not the only person who gets attention from the darling feline. The cat has apparently never met a stranger, making friends everywhere it goes – the grocery store, Costco and even in the McDonald’s drive-thru. The cat gives attention to everyone, and he absolutely loves every second of it.

Who wouldn’t want a cat just like that?
