Funny Animals

Watching cat videos is a staple of internet culture. This orange kitty will crack you up as she rides on the back of a horse. 

The caption for this video says, “GIDDY UP: Adorable video shows cat and horse becoming pasture pals while living life on a farm.”

As you watch the video, you see the horse galloping with the orange cat chilling on its back without a care. If only we could all be so carefree in our own lives. The cat doesn’t seem concerned that the horse would throw it off. 

At the end of the video, the horse lays down, and you hear, “She’s going to roll,” and that’s exactly what happens. It is as if the horse says, “Get off my back, I am done with this free ride!” The cat falls off and runs away. 

Even though the caption says, “becoming pasture pals,” you have to wonder what the horse is really thinking. As one commenter says, “I'm not sure about the "buddies" part--sure looks like the horse did a rollover to get the darn thing off of his back!” 

Either way, these two are living on the same farm together, and this isn't the first time the cat hitched a ride with the horse. She seemed to know what she was doing. One commenter had some advice for the cat, she says, “That car (cat) should have a helmet on.” And maybe they should. Safety first! 

Animals can be such fun creatures with minds of their own. If you film them for a bit, you will likely come up with something funny that is worth sharing. This cat hitching a ride is one example of that. 

“Who teaches us more than the beasts of the earth, and makes us wiser than the fowls of heaven?” - Job 35:11

A crafty and sneaky squirrel successfully stole an Easter egg in what is likely the cutest and most hilarious heist of all time.

Easter is a beautiful holiday. It’s an opportunity to recognize and celebrate Jesus Christ's resurrection. That Sunday morning, when the stone was found rolled away and Christ was no longer in the grave, gives all hope. He defeated death, sin and shame!

Easter is when families and friends gather to eat and fellowship to remember the risen Christ. While eating is a hugely important part of these get-togethers, children often participate in Easter egg hunts. 

Who doesn’t remember sprinting into their backyard with a basket, hoping to find as many eggs as possible? Most of the plastic eggs contained pieces of candy, while others may have had money. Easter egg hunts are always popular with children, and some members of wildlife also seem to enjoy them.

A video posted on YouTube shows a squirrel disrupting an egg hunt. The animal races out into the yard, secures a bright pink plastic egg and places it in its mouth. It then easily avoids being caught by some individuals who witnessed the squirrel’s nefarious deed.

About 12 seconds into the video, a little girl appears on the screen, giving chase to the squirrel as she attempts to retrieve the stolen plastic egg. 

Her efforts were not successful.

The cute squirrel runs away from the youngster, eventually scaling a nearby tree and making its way onto the roof of a neighbor’s house. 

But that is not all. Once the squirrel makes it safely on top of the house, it begins working on its discovery, biting on the plastic shell. Hilariously, the squirrel opens the egg, and the contents of the egg can be seen rolling and falling off the house.

Not many people can say they had a squirrel participate in their Easter egg hunt. 

Genesis 1:21 “And God created the 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.”

A clever bird ducked down behind an aluminum can during the cutest and most hilarious game of peek-a-boo ever.

All animals are part of the Lord’s creation. The same God who created the sun, moon and stars and mankind also made dogs, cats, birds and every other member of the animal community. Yes, even your neighbor’s annoying dog, barking at all hours of the night, is a part of God’s creation.

Those who are part of God’s creation are unique, and animals are no exception to this rule. Anyone who has ever had a pet will completely agree with that statement. Animals continually find ways to entertain, amuse and surprise us. Whether it’s because of their startling amount of intelligence, quirky, off-beat personalities or strange new habits, animals are fascinating creatures. 

In a short, minute-long clip posted on TikTok, a bird found a surprisingly intelligent but still hilarious way to play a popular children’s game with its owner. The clip is a shot of a La Croix soda can, but what is behind the can will have you doubled over with laughter.

Seconds into the clip, a brightly colored yellow bird pops up from behind the aluminum container. It continues this motion throughout the clip, obviously playing with its owner, who can be heard giggling at the winged creature’s hysterical antics.

But at the 20-second mark, the video gets even better. 

The animal starts saying the name of the game it is playing with its owner. The bird begins whistling “peek-a-boo,” much to the woman's delight behind the camera. 

Animals never cease to amaze. They are full of surprises and constantly entertain us with their intelligence and unique personalities.

What a cute and funny clip!

Matthew 6:26 “See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain, or put it in storehouses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?”

The opening to the popular and beloved television program “Friends” got a hilarious cat makeover.

Every generation has its iconic television program that, week in and week out, draws in a massive audience. “MASH,” “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” “Cheers” and “I Love Lucy” are just some of those programs that qualify as iconic television shows. Simply mentioning the titles of those shows immediately brings up a memorable scene or line from that specific show in most people's minds.

In the 90s, it would be difficult to find a more beloved and iconic television show than “Friends.” The show was about the crazy mishaps and hijinks of six friends living in New York City. While the characters spent most of their time in their apartment, they also frequented their local coffee shop, Central Perk.

Audiences fell in love with those characters and even developed and named an entire hairstyle after one of the show’s main characters. However, the program's opening segment and song were some of the show's most memorable elements. Even those who weren’t “Friends” fans know how each episode began.

A clip posted on Instagram features a reimagined “Friends” opening featuring cats. The show’s memorable theme song lyrics have also been augmented to celebrate and recognize those cute, furry and four-legged creatures.

“So no one told you cats were gonna be this way

They steal your food, they’re rude

They won’t do what you say

They shed their fur and scratch your furniture”

Anyone who has ever had a feline understands and knows firsthand the truth of those lyrics. They are some of the most stubborn and strong-willed animals you’ll encounter. 

So, why do we continue to bring them into our homes? The reinvented lyrics remind us that despite a cat’s bad and annoying habits, they are so darn cute, especially when they look you in the eyes and start loudly purring as you pet them.

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

Wendy and George make the perfect pair!

In this YouTube video, we get to hear the story of how a 135lb dog became obsessed with a tiny kitten. 

The story begins when the filmmaker finds the sweetest little kitten alone at the park. “Wendy just was kinda sitting by a tree,” the owner says. They took her home, and we see clips of the kitten and her new owner playing together.  

We then get to see the dog, George. He is a pretty big guy, around 135lbs, and the kitten sits beside him. The two animals bonded instantly, even though she was just the size of his paw. “She would climb onto his back and sit,” the owner says.

Every time they tried to move the kitten, she would return to George. Wendy doesn’t seem to be afraid of anything. She loves George and meows whenever she sees him.

Wendy, the kitten, isn’t George’s only animal friend. They also have a duck and a chicken, and George is great with them. But there is definitely something special about Wendy. “But with Wendy, it’s just like they have this bond that is so apparent and obvious right from the get-go. It’s the best thing ever,” the owner says.

Before Wendy, there was Debbie, the pig. George and Debbie were very close, and we see a clip of them playing together. George was heartbroken when she passed, so Wendy came into his life at the exact right time and filled a void in his heart. “Wendy has definitely made George feel whole again,” the owner tells us.  

What a special relationship these two have. Watching the two playing and living together in bliss warms the heart. We need more of that in this world. 

“And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creeps on the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.” - Genesis 1:25 

A German Shepherd has a favorite song, and its reaction to hearing it played is absolutely adorable and hilarious at the same time.

Everyone has a favorite song that they must sing along with whenever it comes across the radio, Spotify or Apple Music. The beat, the rhythm and the catchy lyrics are too much to ignore. Almost assuredly, it’s going to be a song that gets stuck in your head all day, like Earth, Wind & Fire’s classic “September” or The Rolling Stone’s (I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.”

Humans aren’t the only creatures on earth who have a favorite tune. Even members of the four-legged and furry friend community have beloved tracks. A woman's hilarious video on Instagram proved this to be the case.

The short clip begins with the woman speaking to the camera about her canine’s favorite song and the odd but hysterical way the dog reacts. 

What is the German Shepherd’s tune, you’re probably asking? It’s Sean Paul’s 2005 hit “Temperature,” randomly enough.

She tells us that her pup has a favorite song and proves it by demonstrating and capturing the dog’s reaction whenever that song is played.

The woman plays several songs, including “Back in Black” by ACDC and “Here Comes the Hotstepper” by Ini Kamoze. When those songs play, it’s almost as if they aren’t played. The dog stands completely still and doesn’t react at all. 

However, when Sean Paul’s “Temperature” blasts in the house, it’s an entirely different story. Seconds after the song starts, the dog turns its head to the right, almost as if it can’t believe this song is being played. 

After the animal recognizes its favorite song, it grabs its toy, heads into the living room, and paws rapidly on the carpet. What an odd reaction to such a random song!

Perhaps that’s the animal’s way of dancing? Regardless, animals are fascinating creatures, always coming up with new and inventive ways to entertain and amaze!

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

A tiny chihuahua and a postman have developed what is likely the cutest and most adorable friendship, which has captivated hearts.

Animals, usually within a few days to a couple of weeks, will develop strong and unbreakable bonds with their owners. Those animals, while they may tolerate and even appreciate others, will still prefer their owners, and that will be readily apparent. As humans do, animals also have favorite people. If you must ask who your pet’s favorite person is, odds are, sadly, that it’s not you. 

While pets tend to select a favorite person, they will also have people they tend to shy away from, choosing instead to hide from this person. When it comes to dogs, it’s been generally accepted that, for whatever reason, those furry, four-legged creatures do not like mailmen.

Hundreds of movies and television shows have depicted this adversarial relationship repeatedly over the years. It’s usually in a comedic fashion, with the mailman often getting bitten and scratched. It must have something to do with dogs being territorial creatures and them fearing someone approaching their yard or house. 

One clip posted on TikTok shows a relationship between a chihuahua named Frannie and Postman Dan, which is the exact opposite of what is usually seen on television and on big screens. These two are the best of friends, having a sweet and loving friendship.

The clip shows Frankie actually sitting next to the door, looking outside and anxiously anticipating the arrival of her buddy. Once Dan pulls up outside her owner’s house, Frannie sprints out the door to greet him.

Dan, spotting his furry little buddy, gently picks up Frannie. Once Dan picks up the small dog, Frannie is a ball of energy, doing everything she can to get to Dan’s face, trying to lick him on the face.

These two are buddies for life!

Proverbs 27:9 “Oil and perfume make glad the heart, and the wise suggestion of a friend is sweet to the soul.”

One bird showed off its musical ability and love for one of Earth, Wind & Fire’s biggest hits, “September,” and its astounding rendition has gone viral.

Everyone has a favorite song. Likely, though, it’s probably more likely a handful of beloved tunes, because selecting just one would be too difficult. Can anyone really select a favorite track from The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Elvis Presley?

In addition to a favorite song, some songs seem to get stuck in your head every single time. It doesn’t matter if you hear the entire song or not. Often, just hearing a few notes here and there is enough to get that song lodged in your brain for the rest of the day. 

Without a doubt, one of the catchiest songs of all time is Earth, Wind & Fire’s “September.” That tune is so upbeat, energetic, and catchy that you may try to keep yourself from singing or humming along, but we all know that’s a losing battle every time. From the song’s opening notes, you’re hooked. The music, combined with the lyrics, makes it one of the most fun and infectious songs ever.

Apparently, the song “September” is even too much for birds to resist. A clip posted on TikTok of a bird hilariously whistling that familiar tune has gone viral, having been liked and shared millions of times.

The short, 18-second clip begins with the bird standing on top of what appears to be a glass container whistling “September.” However, not only can this bird whistle, but it has moves to go along with it. It moves its head back and forth as it jams out to the song from the 1970s.

About halfway through the clip, the bird’s owner informs the winged creature about the early morning hour. This causes the bird to pause its celebratory mood momentarily, but seconds later, it is back to whistling the timeless tune.

Birds are fascinating and hilarious creatures!

Matthew 6:26 “See the birds of heaven; they do not put seeds in the earth, they do not get in grain or put it in storehouses; and your Father in heaven gives them food. Are you not of much more value than they?”

A large dog who was obviously terrified of a cat watching it from above made its way slowly and cautiously up the stairs.

Movies and television shows constantly portray cats and dogs as not having the best relationships. These two domesticated animals are often seen as warring counterparts, consistently at odds with one another. It’s a contentious relationship between canines and felines, to say the least, or that’s how they are shown on TV and the big screen.

However, the dogs are the aggressors in those same movies and television programs. The scared and helpless felines move along with trepidation and an abundance of caution, afraid of encountering the big bad dog. On the other hand, the dogs are typically on the hunt, looking for the cat and carefully plotting their next move.

But one short and hilarious video posted on TikTok proves that those films and television shows don’t always get things correct. The 13-second video begins with a pit bull standing and waiting cautiously on the stairs.

 

The dog is obviously frightened, waiting for signs that all is OK, and can continue walking up the stairs. Moments into the clip, a woman provides the dog with a soothing and comforting message.

“You don’t have to be scared of the kitty,” the woman says.

The woman tells the dog everything is good. The dog feels otherwise. The canine looks up toward the ceiling, and the camera moves to reveal what has caught the animal’s attention.

The cat sits with its head through the railing and looks down at the dog.

The dog continues to assess the situation. It monitors the feline, who lounges silently, watching the dog. 

Eventually, the dog conquers its fear and goes up the stairs.

Isaiah 41:10 “Have no fear, for I am with you; do not be looking about in trouble, for I am your God; I will give you strength, yes, I will be your helper; yes, my true right hand will be your support.”

A cat has the cutest and sweetest response to seeing its owner getting around on a pair of crutches: the animal offers its best imitation.

Animals are special creatures. They were formed and placed on Earth by the same God who created man and put the sun, moon and stars in their locations. Because of their obvious importance to Him, those furry and four-legged beings deserve love, care, and respect. 

Anyone who has ever had a pet understands how they all seem to have the ability to crawl into our hearts. They essentially become family members, loved just like everyone else. Because of their unique and quirky personalities, those furry friends also provide plenty of free, laugh-out-loud entertainment. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, a cat mimicked its owner after it spotted the man getting around the house on crutches. After the man hobbles through the house, the cute cat is not far behind and adds in an unexpected and hilarious move. The feline comes down the hallway holding up its right front paw. 

As the man, who suffered an ankle injury, hops about a room, the cat is once again hot on his trail. As it proceeds, the cat walks, remaining a few feet behind its owner, and holds up its paw again. 

While the cat was not able to comment on the reason for its hysterical actions, it was more than likely an act of love from the animal. The cat had obvious sympathy for the injured man, and this may have been one way that the cat could express those feelings. 

Animals are fascinating creatures. They are always demonstrating new and inventive ways to impress and provide us with laughs. They are also fairly intelligent beings, as the cat in the video could at least understand that its owner was injured. 

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.”

One clever cat has mastered scrolling on Apple’s iPad in order to watch and enjoy bird videos.

Animals are much smarter and more intuitive than most people would like to admit. They continually prove their intelligence, surprising people with their ability to pick up new information and habits. Sure, they often act on instinct, doing what feels natural and normal to them. 

However, animals are created by the same God who formed man and put the sun, moon and stars in place. He endowed us with a certain level of intelligence and know-how. Is it that crazy to think that He did the same for our four-legged and furry friends? 

Anyone who has ever had the privilege of owning has witnessed firsthand their stunning level of intelligence. Animals will get into dumb, hilarious and seemingly incomprehensible situations. But don’t people do the very same thing every single day? 

A clip posted on TikTok puts the stunning level of intelligence of animals on full display. The short, 19-second video shows a cute and astoundingly clever feline sitting in front of an iPad. The screen appears to be on a video site, possibly YouTube.

Since the cat does not have thumbs or fingers that make scrolling easy, the animal improvises and does the next best thing. It ingeniously uses its tongue to scroll through a collection of bird videos. Once it finds one that piques its interest and meets its standards, the cat uses its tongue to select the video.

A woman watching the animal go through and then select a video is blown away by the cat’s ability to easily maneuver the video site.

“What?” she says. “How do you know how to do this?”

 Animals find new ways to amaze and thrill us every day. What will they do next? 

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.”

A couple of playful lion cubs refused to let their father sleep, finding possibly the sweetest way to disturb their dad’s attempt at a nap.

An afternoon nap is one of life’s most undervalued activities. Who doesn’t enjoy getting in a little midday snooze on the weekend? It’s a quick and easy way to recharge those batteries.

However, naps, as it appears, are for those who are not parents. Children require near-constant, around-the-clock attention. They have needs that must be met in a timely fashion. If not, they will wail and wail until they are satisfied. Napping in an environment like that is impossible.

Sadly, not only are naps essentially eliminated after becoming parents but often even sleeping at night. Children, especially when they are little, wake up at all hours through the night. That’s why new parents often look so incredibly tired. It’s because they are incredibly tired. 

As one video posted on YouTube hilariously displays, naps are not only a luxury for childless humans but for animals without offspring. The short, 1-minute clip shows a lion relaxing, trying to catch some shuteye in the middle of a field. He’s minding his own business, hoping to get a few moments of peace and quiet.

But the lion’s nap is soon disturbed. Two lion cubs come upon their father’s swishing tail. They are obviously intrigued, and so they must investigate. They proceed to playfully swat at their father’s tail, seeing it as a new toy. 

Dad, several times, tries to dissuade the curious lion cubs from his tail. He swings it violently into the air as if warning them to keep their distance and let him sleep, please! 

But Dad’s efforts are not enough to keep the cubs away. They continue to bat at their dad’s tail, and soon he is up because any further attempts to get some sleep will be in vain. 

Naps, we didn’t know what we had until it was gone!

Ephesians 6:4 “And, you fathers, do not make your children angry: but give them training in the teaching and fear of the Lord.”

If you have ever been to a shopping mall, you may have seen some interesting things. All types of people, and even animals, can show up there. But, have you ever seen an escalator filled with the cutest golden retrievers?

This video clip shows us just that. Filmed at the Passo Fundo shopping mall in Brazil, we just keep seeing dog after dog, all held by their owners, going down the escalator. 

The sweet babies look like some of them are little puppies and others are grown dogs. Some do look a little more comfortable than others. This is the type of video you want to watch over and over as you watch the dogs and owners come down the escalator again and again. 

Golden retrievers are a Scottish breed of retriever dog that was developed in Scotland in the 1800s. They can grow up to 55-75 lbs and have a life expectancy of 12-13 years. 

These dogs are also one of the most popular breeds in the Western world. Often compared to the labrador retriever, they do have a longer coat than they do and are a bit more laid back. Although both breeds are known to be friendly, the lab can be more energetic than a golden retriever. 

So many people love these sweet dogs in the video, as you can tell by the comments:

“Cuteness Overload And They're All Absolutely Adorable Together”

“So many lovely babies,  so cute !”

“All are just teddy bears”

“Invasion of Golden Retrievers”

“It's. official.    all.   Golden.   Retriever. ARE.   Big.   Babies.”

Dogs are such amazing animals. We bring them into our homes and they give us so much love and joy. There is just something about seeing so many together at once that melts our hearts. 

“In whose hand is the soul of every living thing, and the breath of all mankind.” - Job 12:10

A massive black bear was caught on camera exiting from a vent connected to a house in North Carolina.

Animals are creatures that deserve love, kindness and respect. They were created by the same God who formed you and me. Most people, even if they aren’t pet owners, still love animals. Who doesn’t enjoy watching cute, cuddly kittens and puppies do their thing? 

However, some animals, while fascinating, are better to be viewed from a considerable distance and probably from behind a reinforced barrier. No one wants to tangle with a lion, tiger or bear. But what happens if you’ve discovered that a massive black bear has found its way and taken up residence in your home?

Well, that’s what happened to one family in North Carolina. The large animal was caught on camera emerging from a house in the Tarheel State. The incredible video posted on YouTube shows the animal, presumably after hibernating, exiting the house.

The video begins with the bear’s head and front paws sticking out of the house. It then struggles for a few seconds before successfully squeezing its large and fur-covered body through the tiny opening in the house. 

It is frightening to think that an animal that large would and could find its way into a house. I cannot imagine seeing a bear casually exit from my house. 

Nature and all the wildlife creatures are magnificent and awe-inspiring beings. But, most people, if they saw something like that, would react with utter shock and horror. They probably couldn’t get the for-sale sign up in their yard fast enough.

After seeing a bear exiting your house, your next thought would probably concern possible baby bears. Does that family have to worry about going to the kitchen one morning and seeing a bear cub in the refrigerator? Again, putting the house up for sale after witnessing a scene like this would probably be a good move!

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

A massive, furry creature, a black bear, was caught on camera “having a blast” as it took a dip in and enjoyed a jacuzzi.

Animals are created by the same God who placed the sun, moon and stars in place. They were formed and put on earth as part of His creation. Animals deserve love, care, kindness and respect.

However, love, care, kindness and respect can be administered from a distance. When it comes to some larger animals who tend to defend themselves furiously and ferociously when confronted by someone or something, it’s best to show them care and respect in that manner. 

One of those animals who lash out with deadly force when they feel threatened is the black bear. But instead of avoiding the bear, the animal visited a man and a woman. 

In a clip posted on Facebook, a man narrates a video of a black bear “having a blast” as it helps itself to his jacuzzi. The short 2-minute clip begins with the bear walking along the railing of a back porch. Soon enough, the bear gets off the railing and finds its way to the water-filled receptacle.

The man who films the fascinating clip states that the bear “just knocked my jacuzzi top over” before it decides to climb into the outdoor tub.

Once in the jacuzzi, the bear appears to be right at home. It sits up and enjoys the warm water as it gazes at the sunrise. 

What more could a bear want? Maybe a couple of picnic baskets, perhaps?

The man cannot believe what is taking place on his back porch! 

About 1 minute and 20 seconds into the clip, the man, for some reason, opens the door and steps out onto the porch with the bear. He stands silently and films the animal enjoying the jacuzzi until the bear spots him. The man then wisely goes back inside, away from the bear.

It’s probably a good idea if you ever spot a bear using your jacuzzi without asking to allow it to continue doing so until it decides it has had enough time in the water.

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

A cute and lovable golden retriever, in a sweet display of love and affection, decided to give its owner a hand, helping her pack her suitcase for an upcoming trip.

Not everyone has a dog or a cat, but most people love and adore those animals. Their unique personalities are so cute and quirky, providing friendship and given their often-hilarious antics, a fair amount of entertainment. 

But in addition to the free entertainment they provide, animals are some of the most lovable, caring and sweet creatures on Earth. Dogs especially continually show their affection and loyalty in a variety of ways. Most of them are likely to bring a tear or two to your eye. 

In a clip posted on TikTok, one dog, a golden retriever, wanted to be helpful. The short, 14-second video shows the animal standing near an opened, partially emptied suitcase with an object in its mouth. 

The woman filming the dog’s sweet gesture calls out the animal as it approaches the piece of luggage. 

“You just brought it back to the suitcase,” the woman says with a laugh.

After the animal finishes listening to its owner talk, the animal turns back to the suitcase and finishes what it had started by gently placing the object, which appears to be a small stuffed animal, possibly a lion, in the suitcase. 

“What are you doing?” the woman asks the canine. “Bean, are you helping me pack for vacation?”

The text at the top of the video indicates that the dog’s action was a case of monkey see-monkey do. But perhaps the dog also wanted to be prepared. It also wanted to be ready for the trip, too.

Animals are yet another way the good Lord has blessed our lives. As anyone with a pet knows, things are just much better with a dog or a cat in your life. 

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

Cats sometimes get a bad reputation for lacking warmth and friendliness, but this video of a rescued puppy getting comfort and love from a blind cat might have you thinking differently about our feline friends. 

Check out the diapered black-and-white cat as she licks and loves on the sweet, black puppy! 

Hattie is her name, and she didn’t used to get much pampering. In fact, Hattie has had a hard life. Before being rescued by her current owner, TikTok user @hattieandrue, Hattie had been living in a horrible hoarding situation. 

When Hattie’s human dad brought home an abandoned pup, the newbie might not have been welcomed into the fold. However, Hattie has overcome adversity, and she seems very willing to share the good fortune she’s found and her kindness with her new roomy.  

At the opening of the video, it appears the two formerly down-and-out pets are nestled together in the bed. However, we quickly see the pup padding around on the tile floor and then struggling a bit to get back to the safety of their shared space. 

As the puppy moves about before settling, Hattie grooms the diminutive doggie. Actually, the behavior is called “allogrooming,” and it is not merely about helping her buddy with hygiene.  When cats lick one another’s heads, it’s a sign of affection, as well as an indication of bonding and trust. So, even though Hattie’s friend is definitely not a sibling, she seems happy to treat the rescued puppy as such. 

The precious pup rests in the cozy bed, basking—perhaps bathing—in Hattie’s affection. They certainly seem to have built a beautiful friendship! 

Maybe, the two cuddlers have some creature capacity for understanding each other’s past plights. Their connection is great for them, but it’s an inspiring and uplifting message for their parents and all of us, too. When life seems full of hardships and days are dark, God never fails to send little bits of hope and light our way! 

“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” Colossians 3:12

A feline put on quite a hilarious display of balance and athleticism while boxing, throwing several menacing punches in the air.

Cats are creatures that seem to be universally beloved. Most people could watch those furry and four-legged animals for hours at a time, taking in their hysterical hijinks and quirks. Thousands of cat videos on YouTube show cats doing what they do best: be a cat. Additionally, photos of felines on Facebook or Instagram will always pick up a healthy amount of likes and shares.

As much as cats are captured in photos and videos, there isn’t much that we haven’t seen them do. But what about a feline throwing punches that would give Muhammad Ali or Mike Tyson a run for their money while standing on its hind legs? 

A clip posted on YouTube shows a cat doing just that! 

The video is a little under a minute and a half long, and somehow, the cat stands up on its back legs throughout the clip. It does this as it spins around in a circle throwing punches into the air, showing off several mighty impressive jabs. 

Almost as if it’s showing off its unbelievable balance, the cat periodically pauses and remains completely still. Then, at the 46-second mark of the clip, the animal gives its best intimidating look as it peers directly into the camera. 

But after another extended pause, the cat goes back into its boxing training, throwing one punch after another. 

What would cause a cat to stand up on its back legs for such a long time? Who knows, but then again, what is the reason for the rest of their hilarious hijinks and laugh-out-loud antics? 

When you’re a cat, you don’t need any rhyme or reason for your actions because human beings will continue to watch and be fascinated by felines.

Proverbs 12:10 “An upright man has thought for the life of his beast, but the hearts of evildoers are cruel.”

Singer and songwriter Ed Sheeran is one of the biggest names in all of music, playing to thousands of screaming and adoring fans in sold-out venues, but despite all that success, cats don’t appear to be fans of his.

For any musician to achieve a sustained and consistent career singing and writing songs, they must build up and acquire a loyal fanbase. That makes sense, right? They need people willing to buy their music and purchase tickets to see them perform in concert. However, that is much easier said than done.

Even Ed Sheeran, who is internationally known for such hits as “Shape of You,” “Perfect” and “Shivers,” has had trouble building up his fanbase among one particular segment of the population: felines. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Ed visited a cat café in Japan. While there, Ed decided to play the felines a tune. While sitting in the center of the room, with guitar in hand, Ed is surrounded by cats chowing down. 

Ed then asks his furry, four-legged friends if they want to listen to him play a song. But the second he strums his instrument, the cats scatter. Apparently, the cats did not want to enjoy a little music with their meal.

Several people in the room laugh about the fleeing felines. Ed gives a dejected look at his less-than-perfect reception. However, he does power through and continues playing, but his playing is still not well received. Several cats maintain their distance from him while they watch Ed cautiously.

The clip also shows that Ed got a similar reaction from the cats when he visited the very same cafe a decade earlier, in 2014. Instead of stopping to take in the free performance, they ran away. 

It just goes to show you that not all music is for everyone.

Ephesians 5:19 “Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;”

One dog seemingly could not wait any longer and let its owner know it was beyond time to go, honking the vehicle’s horn several times.

No one enjoys waiting. Waiting means I don’t get what I want right now, at this exact moment. Developing patience is not any fun. In fact, doing so can often be painful and even frightening. Society is built on this idea of immediacy. There is fast food, instant potatoes, instant coffee and instant communication. 

Humans do not appreciate being forced to wait for any extended period for anything. These can bring out the worst in individuals. People often become angry and agitated when forced to wait a few extra minutes. However, according to a video posted on YouTube, humans are not the only creatures on Earth who do not enjoy waiting.

The short, 40-second video shows a vehicle parked along the side of the road. But while there is no human in the truck, a dog moves anxiously back and forth and across the seats. It’s clear that the animal is agitated and only becoming more so with every passing second.

The dog wants its owner to return to the vehicle and continue with their journey. But just in case there was any confusion about how the canine was feeling, it soon let everyone within a few blocks’ radius know.

The dog plops itself down in the driver’s seat, looking as if it’s ready to turn the truck on and drive. But then, around the 8-second mark of the clip, the dog hilariously hits the horn. It doesn’t just do this once but six times.

The person filming the dog’s impatient antics can’t help but laugh at the annoyed canine’s honking. 

Being patient and being forced to wait for anything is not fun for anyone, especially, as it turns out, dogs. 

Psalm 37:7 “Take your rest in the Lord, waiting quietly for him; do not be angry because of the man who does well in his evil ways, and gives effect to his bad designs.”
