This adorable Seal pup from the St. Petersburg's Marine Mammals rescue Center tried to escape a few days ago but didn't manage to go too far away as he was found sitting in the corridor between the water houses.

Okay, maybe not all of these stuffed toys are animals but it doesn't really matter, what matters is how much these pets love their toys and just how adorable they are with these toys!

Sometimes, pets have a really special connection with a certain you -- their favorite toy. You know what I'm talking about! Whenever you pull it out you get those dilated eyes and the wiggle butt! 

Now, that's love. Here are pets with their mini pets (who they sometimes chew and destroy).

Meet the extraordinary photographer -- Andrea Martin! An award-winning children and family photographer in West Virginia.

Professor Anatoly Konenko from Siberia started to pursue the art of microminiature in 1981. During the years, he developed and mastered a few innovative technologies of writing on rice, poppy seed and even human hair. He continued with implementing additional technologies in micropaint, sculpture, jewelry, wood, knitting, patchwork and others. Some of his amazing works are part of the national collections of the Russian, Korean, Belarusian, Czech and Slovak presidents.

His latest creation is a mini protective mask for grasshoppers which is about the size of a rice grain and made of a special high-density medical fabric with a built-in air filter.

Soo cool!

That is one clever stray! 

In the streets of Mexico, this cat had started following customers in the hopes that someone would buy him some cat food. Then, one day, his life of asking for cat food would come to an end. 

Primary school teacher, Tania Lizbeth Santos Coy Tova, saw the cat from across the street, and soon enough, the stray was following her. The clever stray then led Tania into a shop nearby, walked straight up to the feed food aisle, and actually pointed to the bag of food he wanted. 

Tania was surprised and in awe! Honestly, who wouldn't be? 

So she decided to stalk his home and discovered he was living in an abandoned home. It was then that Tania decided to adopt him.
