Scritches. Scratches. What's the difference? Well, scratches are those lines of damage when you drop your phone, and scritches are what you give a cat on top of its head or under the chin. 

So, now we all know! Scritches is the correct term to use when giving a kitty (or other animals) some fingernail love. 

Today, we're going to let you into a secret that saves your life from wild animals (and non-wild animals)... and that foolproof method is scritches. No animal can resist a good scritch!

Don't believe us? Check it out for yourself! 

These doggo gifs are such a gift! 

We can never get enough of those sweet pups doing their usual sweet (and sometimes, ridiculously funny) things. Animals make the world go round and we're having to live in a day and age when we can see all this wholesome at the snap of our fingers. 

If this dose of cuteness below does suffice your insatiable appetite, perhaps we can interest you in even more doggo goodness?

What is it about animals that make us feel so warm and happy inside? They are just so pure and so loving, even the ones that you may not think are loving. All animals tend to show love and affection in their own way, much like humans. 

Like a human, they may have some trust issues or they may be scared when it comes to love. Animals are so much like us yet better. They truly are the essence of warmth and purity. 

Face it, when you come face to face with an animal, you can't help but smile. It's impossible and it's not something we ever want to fight. Take a breather with these heartwarming and silly gifs, guaranteed to put a smile on your face (small or large).

It's the freakin' weekend and we don't really need an extra boost but we're going to give you one anyways, just in case. 

What's better than cat gifs, anyways? It's cat magic in action! 

We hope you're having a wonderful and relaxing weekend and this will only add to that weekend enjoyment! And if you aren't having a great weekend, we hope this will help cheer you up! 

Vids of corVIDS. Do you get it? 

Well, even if you hated that, we found it to be quite clever. 

Corvids belong to the same family of birds such as ravens, crows, jackdaws, magpies, etc. However, in common English, these birds would be known as part of the crow family, the technically correct term for them are corvids. 

Knowing that corvids are part of the crow family and seeing videos of them playing below, it makes sense because these bird species are known to be quite clever. 

What we didn't previously know, is that these birds could have so much fun. We like to think that if we were to turn into a bird for one day, we would go around riding windshield wipers, too. 

Cat gifs are the ultimate gift! We love cats, funny images of cats, wholesome photos of cats, and of course, gifs of cats!

Think about it, cat pictures are great and all but a moving cat pic? That's purrfection. 

So, without further ado, let's raise a glass (of hydrating water) and toast to the purrfection and adoration of cats! Cheers! 

Oh, the drama! If these were Doggo Awards for the best dramatic scene -- we would have quite the contenders! 

We love our fur babies but we all know just how dramatic they can be. However, one breed sort of takes the cake when it comes to theatrics and whining... any guesses? 

Yup. Huskies. We love them, who doesn't? But they are giant babies. They do, however, make for some really hilarious vids! 

Sound on for these wonderful performances! 

Welp. Seems like the world may be going downhill again instead of progressing. 

We don't have a cure for what's happening... but we do have a cure for smiles and leaving the real world (for a moment) and entering one full of cats and cuteness. 

At least for a moment, we can fully emerge ourselves in cat gifs and forget the world outside. 

Do you ever just feel like a random dance party in the middle of the day? Yeah, no, it's more like a giant urge for a nap party. 

However, there is that moment in the day when you get off the clock and it strikes you -- tomorrow is Friday! And you get this little bubble of happiness, just for a moment. That is when it's time for a dance party. 

In this case, it's a doggo dance party! But instead of dancing, it's just funny memes to keep the good times rollin. It is still a party, though! 

Oh, boi, what joy!

What a treat! A massive, and hysterical, gathering of birbs being their birby selves!

We have a strange love with birds. There are some birds that actually terrify us -- we're looking at you food-stealing seagulls. But mostly, birds can be quite lovely. Like, that one bird that looks like a happy cotton ball! Remember that? 

Or those ultra-colorful birds that are pretty uncommon. 

Birds are a lot of things and we've pretty much have shared them all -- memes, gifs, and comics. But we're always on the hunt for more glorious birb-content to bring you! 

So, welcome to the ultimate bird party! We hope you're hungry because this is quite the treat! 

"I'm going on an adventure!" - all these animals, probably. 

When you're heading out on an adventure, do you ever stop and think, "what could possibly make this adventure better?" Well, these fellow people below seemed to have figured out the essential ingredient that makes adventures so magical -- animals! 

Animals that are packed and ready to go! Honestly, what could be better? 

We can't get enough of cat gifs. When you're looking at a cat picture -- the only thing that would make that picture better is if it were a video, am I right? 

Well, here are 33 perfect cat moments that were captured on video, and we are forever grateful for that. Cat gifs are truly a gift and we're here to unwrap and bask in their glory. 

Sometimes, you just need to get your fix of cats. And by sometimes, we mean all the time. 

It's a mini-compilation of all things cats! From memes to comics to gifs! We've got ourselves the purrfect little medley here -- something for everyone to enjoy. 

Bring on the good weekend vibes! And we're doing so with this list, of gifs, of doggos! 

The purity of a doggos is unmatched. And there are moments where that purity is captured on film, and we are so very grateful for that. 

Here are 20 dog gifs you can guarantee will lift you from the darkness and into the holy light of doggo-ness.

We are blessed. 

Take off those running shoes and dip your toes into this refreshing pool of animal gifs! What's in store for you, you might ask?
