I May Or May Not Have Watched This For A Minute Straight

Cutest.Thing.Ever.

Dear Puppies, Why Are You So Cute?

And why are you not here cuddling with me?  NOT FAIR.

Because It’s Not Friday Yet

The video was on a post about an actually depressing story about a guy who wants to get rid of pandas. I KNOW, right? Let’s get rid of him! Jerkface. [The Awl]

Maru = The Best Cat In The World

So I should apologize to my brother and sister-in-law’s cats for that statement, but it’s true.  I’m sorry Lilly and Ender–you are adorable but you guys are not nearly as funny and palyful as Maru.  You’re probably asking, “Who is Maru?”  Well, Maru is a cat whose videos have been online for a while and they are freaking.hysterical.  He’s this chubby, overweight Scottish Fold residing in Japan who, “has a thing for putting himself into things.”  Anytime I’m feeling the teeniest bit sad, I just watch this chubbster dive into an empty soda can box or roll around in a garbage can.  Who knew that something so simple could be so amusing?  Even if you don’t like cats, this guy is an anomoly.  He’s playful and silly like a dog, but tries to maintain the dignity of a cat, which makes it even cuter.  Even if you don’t like cats, you will like this guy.  Trust me.

The clip above is my favorite, especially around the 1:50 mark, but if you want more, you should check out Maru’s blog.  Yes, a cat has a blog, but this one is funny so it’s worth checking out.  I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Things That Are Swell: Holding Hands

Cute Animals are Such Jerks

God damn cute animals are such selfish little jerkfaces sometimes. I didn’t think anyone else shared my opinion until my brother pointed me in the direction of this blog. Highlights include:

(re: puppy) You fucking bastard. Why can’t both of your eyes be the same size? I’m on to you puppy. You can’t stop me. Stay out of my way, you goddamn asshole. And if you EVER put your chin on ANYTHING again, so help me, puppy, so fucking help me…

Seriously. How dare these cute animals be all adorable and snuggle worthy? A-holes. All of them. I just want to nuzzle in their soft fur/feathers. Ok, that’s enough.

The First Dog at his first press conference

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you probably know that the Obamas fiiiinally got a new puppy, ending months of pointless speculation about what kind of dog would eventually take up residence in the White House. Well, earlier this week we found out (and, hundreds of Washington reports scurried around in panic, “ohhhh fuuuck! What are we supposed to write about NOW?”).  

My favorite story about Bo, the Portuguese Water dog, appeared in the Washington Post last weekend.  It’s worth a read, if only to marvel at the astounding number of dog puns author Manuel Roig-Franzia managed to squeeze into the article.  

You can read it here.  You’re woof-come. No, that didn’t work? Eh, I tried.
