We've all got that one friend, or know a friend, that messes up each squad photo.

The images below of an adorable squad of Shiba Inus, all provided by Yoko on Instagram, feature 4 pups in harmony. Err.. almost. Three of the Shiba Inus seem to be in sync with each other and how to look in each photo. The white Shiba Inu doesn't seem to get any of the memos, and never really syncs up with the squad. Thus, resulting in "ruining" each group photo.

And the air-quotes around "ruining" are totally necessary because honestly, we believe the white Shiba Inu is MAKING each photo. This adorable white Shiba Inu is the star in each photo and had us continuously smiling from ear to ear. 

And we bet you anything, you'll be feeling the same. 

2020 has been one rocky year but luckily, in the world of animals, it's never been better! Since the beginning of the pandemic, it was the Earth and animals that have benefited from the lack of us humans destroying the world. 

And with the yearly competition, Comedy Wildlife Photography Awards, we're further able to celebrate the magic that is animals, majestic or not. The incredible photographers that have been selected for this year's finalists have really delivered some animal gems! The following photos, captured at the moment, are hysterical and show us all that we're not alone when it comes to looking funny when our photos are taken! 

We were able to talk to Michelle, the head of Comedy Wildlife Photography Award's press office, and asked about the process of narrowing down so many wonderful photographs into the top finalists, she had this to say about the process, "... it is a brutal process. We started with over 7000 images - and whittled them down based on: level of humour, quality of photography, ability to get people's attention. It sounds relatively vague the last point, but we want to get our message of conservation across to as many people as possible, and the images must attract their attention!"

Well, these photographs selected definitely capture our attention! 

The winners will be announced on October 22nd, but the following images are all winners in our eyes! Congrats to all the photographers who made it to the finals and thank you for sharing such imagery with us -- we all could use this fantastic pick-me-up! 

Gooood morning, lovely readers! We know why you're here and we do our best to make sure you have the best, quality animal memes to look at while drinking your hot morning coffee! 

There's honestly nothing better than getting in a few laughs before starting your day -- it's definitely our favorite way to start ANY day. 

Get ready cuz a whole lot of animal humor is coming your way! 

This year has been many things but we like to focus on the good. And the good is that there's a bunch of new 'They Can Talk' Comics by the hilarious and talented Jimmy Craig! 

It's no secret that Jimmy's comics are one of our all-time favs, they're just so clever, creative, and actually make us feel like if animals were to talk, this is pretty much what they would be saying. 

After you're finished digesting this comical bunch of comics, we've got even more treats for you to enjoy! 

You can follow 'They Can Talk' comics on Facebook and Instagram! 

What's better than to finish off the week with some fresh memes? Relax with a cup of hot tea, a warm fuzzy blanket, and your air conditioner on full blast and really perfect the ambiance with these freezing cold penguin memes. 

Don't worry though, you're not the only one who's sick of the heat waves, these penguins would be too. And they're all too happy to show it. Since yes, they may look cute and funny, waddling around and slipping on ice, but inside every penguin, there is a ferocious little creature ready for a fight. So, close the week off with these funny penguin memes, and let's hope some of these penguins' icy energy gets transferred to our weather. 

We made it. Another week bagged and it's finally our favorite day -- Caturday! 

Get those fuzzy slippers on and a nice, hot cup of coffee because we're celebrating Caturday the lazy way. Truthfully, this is what cats would do and would want for us. To be comfy, take huge catnaps, and admire cats (of course).

And what better way to honor and admire cats than by laughing at some ridiculous cat memes? We can't think of anything better. 

Enjoy us in our Caturday ritual of laughter and naps! 

Ben Hed, commonly known as Pet_Foolery, has done it again! Besides his famous 'Pixie and Brutus' comics, he also creates any animal-related comics, and seems to really enjoy including dinosaurs into that animal-mix! 

And what's a better dinosaur film than Jurassic Park? If you have yet to see Jurassic Park (for some unknown and truly confusing reason), you may not understand just how "clever" this comic truly is. If you have seen the film, then you'll get it without question or a doubt. 

If you're looking for more dino-related comics by Ben Hed, we've got you covered! 

Let us see those orange furbabies! It's true that all types of cats are amazing, Ragdoll, Siamese, Calico, Tuxedo, Black Cats, long-haired cats, short-haired cats, any and all mixed breeds. The list of different cat breeds goes on and on, and while we love and adore them all -- once in a while we like to feature one type and showcases their silly moments, beauty, and overall adorable-ness. 

This week, our spotlight goes to the ginger cats of the world! If you have an orange fluffball of your own, share a pic in the comments below! 

Also, just for fun, how many of you have an orange cat and named them Simba? Come on, be honest! 

Huzzah! We made it through another week in 2020, that's always an accomplishment and means to celebrate! And we love to do so with our amazing user's fresh hot cat memes! That's right, I Can Has Cheezburger's original cat memes -- Lolcats! 

Lolcats is the ultimate source to find the newest and cutest cat memes! Did you know that we currently have the largest cat meme gallery on the web? Yup! If you want to test that out, just go scrolling, and scrolling... and scrolling away! 

This week, we have gathered the top 25 original memes for your viewing pleasure! If you want to join the fun and create a cat meme of your own, check out our meme builder! 

We all know and love We Rate Dogs, but did you know there's an equally righteous cat rating system, as well? That's right! Twitter's own We Rate Cats takes cat rating very seriously, and always seems to get the appropriate score. 

Cat rating must be challenging because they're all so cute and they're all so... cat-like. Maybe it's a good thing ICHC doesn't have a rating system of their own, or else we'd end up giving all cats a solid 20/10. And a 50/10 when we're in a good mood. Like right now. 

All of these cats deserve a 50/10!

Sometimes, you have a pet that almost seems like they were a human in their past lives due to the seer amount of sass they bring into your life. Seriously, you ever meet an animal that was sort of scary-smart and had the emotional palette of a human? We sure have.

That's how we feel when we come across such spicy and sassy pets! Pets who have no problem whatsoever conveying how they feel, and do so clearly enough for us to understand them. 

Truly, it's a special gift. To all the clever sassy pets out there -- this one is for you! 

It's been a while since we last had some mind-altering animal shower thoughts to ponder upon! We decided to go digging through this year's top thoughts and we were definitely not disappointed! 

r/ShowerThoughts is basically this generations' most insightful thoughts, all in one forum. There's a shower thought that blows our mind! 

Which thought below was really eye-opening for you? 

These doggos seem a tad bit confused... they've got a whole lot of catto energy coming off of them, and coming off strong. 

It would make sense if you had only one dog who grew up in a household with cats, but there are just some positions and things cats can do flawlessly that dogs... well, they can do these things but nowhere near as flawless. In fact, it's just bizarre and unusual to find your dog perched on top of the fridge. Something that cats do so often, you wouldn't even bat an eye. 

It could be due to the large size of dogs, that seeing them in small/cat-like situation seems comical. And it's also a bit confusing to seem them behave like their natural enemy -- cats. 

I guess it just goes to show that dogs can do (almost) anything that cats can do. 

We feel a bit snappy today. And the only way we could express that snappiness is in the form of cat snaps -- of course. 

Is there anything better than a good quality dose of cat snaps to help brighten your mood? If the answer to that question is no, then just don't answer. 

If needed, there are multiple cat snap doses you can treat yourself with, we just ask that you be cautious and aware of the side-effects. The side effects being overdosed by cuteness. 

You have been warned.
