Valentine's Day is this weekend and Simon's cat has a date!
Too bad Simon's cats' little brother is doing what little brothers do best... being annoying and ruining things.
It's OK, Simon, we understand and love you.
Love is so powerful.
These poor animals had been abandoned, neglected, and the moment someone stepped in to give them a second chance -- they absolutely flourished. It's the best kind of glow-up there is.
If you have the chance to give an animal a second chance at life and love -- please take it.
When Twitter user @garo004giru found an abandoned kitten, there was no way they couldn't leave her out there on her own!
They decided to adopt her and welcome her into the family... of six ferret brothers.
This is the story of Komari, the kitten who grew up with six ferret brothers, and is loved by them all.
They say pets have a sixth sense and it's hard not to believe so when looking at these pictures!
These pets absolute adore their pregnant hoomans and are intend on showing them that love.
All we can say is our hearts are melting and becoming piles of goo stuck to the floor.
Why are we crying about something that happened millions ago? Well, that's something you'll find out for yourself, in just a moment.
Singer-songwriter Tom Rosenthal seems to have a little prodigy on his hands!
Rosenthal's daughter, Fenn, had a dream about the tragically doomed dinosaurs and wrote a song about it. Titled, "Dinosaurs in Love," is Fenn's first official solo creation and since it's debut on Twitter -- it's been played 2.4 million times and growing!
Way to go, Fenn!
Listen to the most adorable and wholesome song below, as well as, Twitter's reactions.
Oh, and be prepared to feel some things.
We searched through the most liked cat pictures on the subreddit r/cats, this week, and we decided to share them all with you!
The pictures all have one thing in common, and that is, of course, cats. However, that's where the similarities end.
There are images of glow-ups, hilarious cats being hilarious, adorable-ness (naturally), and mourning and loss. We wanted to take a moment to appreciate the beauty of all these cats and remember those who have recently left us, they may be gone but never forgotten.
Meet the ever-handsome orange tabby named Thor!
Thor was born feral, and is completely blind. According to TinyKittens HQ, it's a miracle he managed to live on his own, out in the streets, for the first year of his life.
Thankfully, Thor is now in some loving hands, and as TinyKittens HQ writes in their description, "we promise he will know nothing but love, comfort and a full belly from now on."
Thor has already gained 6 pounds, in their care, and even has a playmate named Nyla!
"His fear instinct is quite ingrained, so it might take some time for us to help him build enough confidence with humans that he doesn't try to run and hide. Once we have him in our laps, he is just loving being hand fed and having his ears and chin rubbed.
Nyla is keeping Thor company until she gets her spay and eye surgery tomorrow. She has one purrfect eye, and is very fearful in captivity, so we are hoping she will be able to return to her friends and family in our Happy Forest managed feral colony once she's fully recovered. As with all of our ferals, we will bring her back in if she needs further medical care or if she changes her mind about life with humans."
A huge shout out and thank you to TinyKittens HQ for all their incredible and loving work they provide!
Gemma Copeland was left in tears after visiting Schoenbrunn Zoo in Vienna, Austria.
While in the orangutan enclosure, Copeland realized her son, 15-month-old Jasper, was hungry. She sat down against the glass to breastfeed him when a female orangutan, named Sol, who had been watching Copeland intently, comes to sit beside her.. as if protecting her as she breastfeeds.
Sadly, Sol had previously given birth to a stillborn infant.
Copeland was moved to tears by the gesture, writing, "She looked directly into my eyes then placed her hand up as if to touch my son. I was in awe of this beautiful creature already. My son wanted feeding and as it was quiet I fed him whilst I sat there. The way the orangutan reacted took my breath away she kept looking at me, then my son then back again.
She sat with me for approximately half an hour, and kept stroking the glass and lay down next to me as if to support and protect me. I was absolutely gobsmacked and got quite a crowd of people turning up to see what was going on – people were sat watching quietly and respectfully. It was really lovely and I didn't want to leave – it felt incredible and I was crying so much because I couldn't take it in.
I had to share this because my mind was blown, we may be a species apart but breastfeeding connected us today in a once in a lifetime moment that will stay with me forever."
Sol undoubtably had a strong connection to this mother and her child. Orangutans are such gentle and loving souls, Sol is an example of that love.

After all, what are big sisters for?
In the adorable now viral video (uploaded by Reddit user u/YourMumWasHere), you can see a kitten playing with a toy when it suddenly gets stuck up on the fridge. After trying to reach for it, the kitten has decidedly given up... that is, until big sister arrives! The older cat "comes to the rescue" and helps retrieve the stuck toy and walks off nonchalantly.
Pretty bad-ass move, big sis!

Everyone understands love.
There is no purer love than between a kid and her dog. All our pets are such a huge part of our lives and hearts, it's difficult to put into words just how much they mean to us, how much we love them.
Imgur user adderly shared heartwarming images of the life and bond between a girl and her dog. Imgurian user revealed that they originally told their sister NOT to get a puppy when she had her baby...
The rest is history. Watch the transformation of love to more love below:
How strange that people claim cats are unloving creatures. If you know someone who feels or thinks that way about these lovable creatures, then show them this list.
If this list doesn't change their mind...they're hopeless and it's time to find new friends.
Here are loving cats who just love to love.
A blind bison named Helen has been roaming the fields of Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary for years, all alone. This was due to the fact that Helen had nervous disposition, she purposely would separate herself from other animals.
Until now. Oliver, a young Jersey calf has fought his way into Helen's heart with his gentle and kind manner. Since being introduced to Oliver, Helen and Oliver have been inseparable. They do everything together, so much so, that Oliver's fur has even changed in shade to match Helens!
Gwen Jakubisin, at the Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary, told USA Today, "The change in [Helen's] demeanor is incredible, her joy is palpable."
With around 250 farm animals currently at the sanctuary, Helen has slowly started to reach other to other animals and is extending her social circle -- all thanks to her new courageous friendship with Oliver.
Helen has also become something of a surrogate mum for Oliver. Jakubisin said, "Betsy (Oliver's mom) usually drops Oliver off at "daycare" and roams around while Helen watches over him for the rest of day, and she's cool with that. I catch them grooming each other, which is amazing because I don't think Helen has ever had that opportunity to express that motherly instinct before."
We all need love. No matter what shape or form it comes in. And Helen and Oliver is simply further proof of that.
Here's to you, Helen and Oliver! We adore your unlikely friendship and have learned from it.
