You're probably well aware of Jenny Jinya, at this point. Jinya's comics in the past have been beyond heartbreaking, yet informative and always held with an important message.

This one is no different, except it is. According to Jinya's Twitter, this comic was in reaction to those asking for a "happy" comic, "By popular request, I have now tried a "happy" comic. A new character is also introduced. But I don't know yet if this one will appear again. It was a lot of fun to draw this comic, but I think the heartbreaking stories are more my style."

You continue turning out these stories, Jinya, and we will always be here to listen!

Why this random gathering of pictures of cats? For many reasons, actually. It's for you but it's also for us. 

Things have been uncertain this year and it doesn't really seem to be getting all that better. However, do you know what's always great? Cats. Cats just tend to brighten up our day, and the world, a little bit more and we'll take what we can get!

We believe that just looking at images of cats can be as soothing as petting one. So, if at this moment you're feeling stressed about anything at all -- this list is for you. Try to let go, for a moment, and enjoy this simple collection of cats. 

There's a new and very funny Twitter account distracting us from work, life, and – most importantly – the news.

The hilarious @JurassicPark2go imagines what the irresponsible amusement business would have tweeted if it had a twitter account and it seems like it is on the course to be a roaring success. 

The jokes are written by some really great comedy writers and we just love it!     

It all started with a simple question on twitter: which of the two zebras in this photo is in front, facing the camera, the left or the right one?

The Indian Wildlife photographer, Sarosh Lodhi, took this photo of two zebras in the Maasai Mara national game reserve in Kenya, and it went viral. 

As you can see from the following comments, people had a hard time deciding...What do you think? 

Thank you Safely Endangered Comics for these highly-accurate pup stats! 

All we know is that we need more. Way more. Like, every single dog breed in existence more. 

We love doggos, in all their beautiful shapes, sizes, and characteristics. We love doggo memes, doggo tweets, doggo snaps, doggo comics -- you name it, we love it. 

Which pup stat do you find to be totally accurate? And if you could create one of your own, tell us the pup and the stats in the comments below! 

How are dogs so heckin' good? Seriously, it's as if they were made out of purity and loyalty. 

Much like the rest of humanity, we're obsessed with them. They always seem to surprise us with their cuteness and wholesomeness, they though at this point it really shouldn't. We just continue to be in awe of these perfect animals. And even if they're not so perfect, they truly are. 

There's no such thing as an imperfect dog, just like all animals. Here are 23 moments of dogs being their good doggy selves, and it was imperative that we share these moments with you. 

Animals are an endless source of fun for the creative people on Twitter, who keep entertaining us with their funny gems.

Get ready for some major cuteness coming your way! 

Samantha Smart, from Florida, discovered a tiny kitten meowing around her neighborhood for a few days. She knew she had to help the little guy. 

In an interview with The Dodo, Samantha Smart tells the story of how little Ponyo came to be part of her family, "It wasn't just a meow, it was a sad little cry. He had the whole neighborhood working together to find and trap him. We have one cat already so we weren't really looking to add another, but it felt like Ponyo was meant for us!" 

Soon after the Smart family adopted little Ponyo, Smart's daughter got Ponyo a special stuffed dragon, to make him feel safe. 

Now, Ponyo won't sleep without it! He even carries it from room to room. So when Ponyo had to go to the vet, to get neutered, the Smart family knew they had to bring Ponyo's stuffed dragon along. 

Chug, chug, chug! The Sunday Train of cat goodness has arrived! 

Every Sunday, we gather up the best cat videos on Instagram and narrow it down to the top 5! What qualifies a video to be in the top five? Well, it's gotta hit some high marks. One mark is obviously kitty cuteness (but let's be honest, all cat videos hit that mark), so the next would be funny/unexpected. And the final, and most important mark, is if the video leaves us smiling at the end of it. And all these videos definitely left us smiling. 

We hope it does the same for you. Happy Sunday! 

A new photo archive by Vintag.es shows that some of the European colonizers penetrating Africa in the 19th and early 20th centuries were riding wild zebras as an alternative to horses. 

The reason behind it is the zebra's resistance to diseases carried by tsetse flies which made their domestication more attractive.  

However, as many European colonizers learned in the early 20th century, despite their similarity to horses, zebras are just a bit too wild to completely tame. 

Unlike horses, which naturally roam around munching on grass, zebras spend their lives cagily watching, evading and fighting savannah predators such as lions, cheetahs and crocodiles. Natural selection has bred zebras to be nervous, flighty and brutally aggressive if cornered. 

But taming individual zebras to perform horse-like duties has occasionally been successful. Lord Walter Rothschild, for instance, trained a team of zebras to pull a carriage, which he drove past Buckingham Palace to demonstrate their supposedly pliable nature.

Many people find penguins cute either because of their chubby and feathery appearance and/or their unique behavior, including singing or bringing rocks to find a partner for life. That, and seeing them waddle across the ice in groups or huddling together for warmth is simply just downright adorable...
