adorable

It looks so unnatural and slightly uncomfortable to look at but we can't look away. In fact, we're kind of in love with these dog-sitting cows and wish to purchase our very own farm to witness this phenomenon first hand. 

Chester Zoo has some adorable new residents. The three hyrax pups were born there in July and they're as cute as newborn fur babies come. 

Remember the 101 Dalmatians film? After watching that as a child, I would fantasize about rolling around in a pile of puppies as they frolicked around me. Sounds like a fantasy, right? Well a woman in Australia is living this dream after her pet dalmatian gave birth to 19 puppies, breaking the world record for the number of puppies born in one litter. And the pictures are ridiculously cute.

Red pandas are adorable (even more so when they stand on their hind legs in the cutest defense mechanism ever). And no, they are not red-colored pandas (I know you're imagining that right now). A little floof has just been born at Idaho Zoo - the first ever red panda to be born there. As you can imagine, everyone is pretty excited about it. 

You've probably never heard of him, but you've almost definitely seen his photographs. I'm talking about Walter Chandoha, the American photographer, cat dad and husband, who photographed cats for most of his life and was the virtually the pioneer of cat photography. Here is his story. 

Nothing warms the heart more than some wholesome animal pictures! It has been scientifically proven to bring an instant smile to that lovely face of yours.

Cats that actually love to snuggle? We know we thought it was just a myth as well! 

Felines love to snuggle all the time, and human's like to laugh at kitten and cat memes when they feel threatened or scared, which in our society is like ALL THE TIME. Don't meow home without 'em.

These little bunnies are guaranteed to make you squeal! So precious and delicate! 

While dozens of cute cats and kittens might seem like a cuteness overload, the real cuteness lies with bunnies. Cute, adorable, little, baby bunnies.

OK, we think we have just found the cutest Instagram page ever!  

Elena Alekhina is a Russian designer and doll artist from St. Petersburg who creates realistic pet toys from papier-mache and printed fabrics. But Elena doesn't stop at the creation process. She also takes her small cats and dogs for a tour in the city where she photographs them against the backdrop of the city's iconic landmarks- The Kazan Cathedral, Peter and Paul Fortress, Griboyedov canal and the Fontanka river. On her Instagram page, she even names them! As you'll scroll down, you will see there are sailor cats, portrait painters, travelers, and even a newly married couple among her toy pets.

A fine collection of 20 munchkin cats that are simply too pure for this world! Careful looking through these pictures, we guarantee that afterwards, you'll be craving a sweet little potato of your own! Because let's be real, how could you not? 

Fun fact: due to their dwarfism, many believe munchkin cats have health issues but that is not true and their lifespans equal that of a regular cat (12-14 years)

Etsy artist RainbowLuvPets has a very specific, and adorable, niche, knitting sweater sleeves for snakes! There are also tiny knitted hats for available but we can't get over just how cute and cozy these snakes look in those sweater sleeves! You can see more items at the Etsy shop!

So small, so cute, and oh so happy! What more could you possible want in life?!

What could be better than the best of the best when it comes to our adorable feline companions? The answer to that questions is actually "funny cat memes", but that digresses from our original answer. ***CLEARS THROAT LOUDLY*** Not since the days of the ancient Japanese and Egyptians have cute furry cats been so revered like they are today. It really does beg the question, who is wo/man's best friend in 2019? Have the puppers been ousted? You're the tie breaking vote, don't disappoint us.
