If you're a cat lover anything like us, then one thing is definitely true about you - you think ALL cats are purrfect, and that, of course, includes big cats. Wild cats are adorable, and that's just fact. No matter how scary they are or how dangerous, if a wild cat turns onto his back and shows off its belly, we would definitely want to pet it, no matter the risk.

Today, we're going to show our love to the most definitely underappreciated wild cats in our midst. And, we're going to prove - once and for all - that big wild cats are just as awwdorable as the tiniest itty bitty kittens. 

Have you ever tired taking a selfie (or maybe a million of them in a row) and thought: oh my god, why do I suck at this so bad? Well, you're about to get some more of that feeling. Because somehow, even these animals taking selfies manage to take selfies better than ours. It's a mild blow to our self-esteem, not gonna lie, but seeing these awwdorably funny animals smiling to the camerais something that has definitely given a boost to our mood. 

Thank you, of course, to @JoaquimCampa for having collected all of these pictures, and thanks to everyone who shared this tread and made some more wholesome animal content go viral on twitter. 

Sometimes we have to lean on each other in order to make it through the day, the week, and even the year. This can happen emotionally but also, of course, physically. Animals often find this comfort as well in hugging each other and sleeping with each other in a cuddling position. Sometimes, we need a friend to be our pillow. No matter the weather, Randy Newman's "You've Got a Friend in Me" will be playing in the back of our minds whenever we see animals hugging it out. 

Below you will find otters, cats, dogs, and even rats (hey, that rhymed!). Love has no boundaries, even in the animal world, as you all will be able to see. The utter sweetness is so massive it can give you a toothache. Get ready to visit the dentist.

Dogs have their fur, it is true. And yet, dogs nowadays are often just like us in that they love the luxury and comfort of pillows and blankets. Frankly, this is very understandable. Comfort is key. Comfort is life. And while dogs enjoy life in the house rather than outside in the woods, why not go all the way? Why not make an entire blanket fort so that you are never too hot or too cold. 

Below are 12 pictures of dogs who treat themselves and know how to do it right! Come rain or shine, these dogs have their blankies and they look darn cute as well. What's better than having fur? Having fur surrounding your fur.

Do you need to be convinced that red pandas are the superior pandas? Well, apparently so. Unless, of course, you've entered this list knowing full well that you are about to be overwhelmed with cuteness. Red pandas must be protected (they are literally endangered) and honored in all their glory.

Below you will find 11 of the cutest pictures of red pandas! Their tongues are sticking out. They're sleeping in trees. Basically, red pandas will grab at your heart and hold on for dear life with little to no effort because that's just who they are. Get ready to find your new favorite animal.

Animals... They're just like us. Except when they're not.

Part of the enjoyment of animals is when they do things that are very human-like. Be it walking on two feet or shaking hands or dun dun dunnnnnn... Smiling! When animals smile like humans, it feels like they are speaking to our very souls. We can't help but think they did it on purpose and that they know what they're doing with their faces.

Below are 12 pictures of animals who took their smiles to a whole other level! They did their best and you gotta give them credit for that. Their smiles may be wonky, but the message is clear. Enjoy!

Get ready for a cuteness overload, dog lovers, because you're about to see 21 of the most adorable puppies we could find on the internet. We love all dogs, don't get us wrong, no matter how big a dog is, we love it more than anything. But, puppies - puppies will always have a special place in our souls. 

Because itty bitty puppies are too adorable for this world, and no matter how many pics of them we see, we are forever smitten and in love. And considering how much love they give us all the time, we thought it was only right to give this puppy pile some more loveback. Because one can never love puppies enough. 

It is a known fact that if you want your cat not to go somewhere, that is exactly where they will go. Forever and always, cats are going to be where they shouldn't be. No matter how much you yell at them not to, how many times you spray them with water, they will keep coming back to that place that forbidden place. 

From sitting on pizzas to falling asleep on plants, cats are defiant through and through. And for some reason, the second you get your puzzle pieces out of the box, they find their way onto them as well. Gotta catch them fast if you don't want all of your hard work destroyed. At least the pictures of those disasters are funny though, so laugh away, cat lovers. 

Even despite the fact that we look at animals all day long, nature still manages to surprise us every once in a while with something amazing . Because nature is amazing and so are animals. And this specific animal - the earless monitor lizard, otherwise known as Lanthanotus borneensis - has managed to take us by surprise, because these little guys look like tiny real life dragons. 

Lizards keep surprising us with how cool they are now that we're thinking about, and so do other super underappreciated animals. And if you know anything about us, you know that we enjoy nothing more than giving love to animals who do not get enough of it. So, enjoy this little underappreciated creature - in all its tiny but fierce glory. 

It's the middle of the week again, and we are getting tired. One step at a time, we're making it though, but to be as productive as we wish to be, we really feel like we need a little boost - some inspiration, something to make our imagination go off again. You know what we're getting at, right? It's time for for this week's collection of animal pictures that are worth more than 1000 words. 

This collection is full of amazing pictures - funny ones, weird ones, wholesome ones, and ones that just make you appreciate nature all over again. There's something in here for each of you, some picture that will inspire you reinvigorate you just how you hope it will. 

Have a great rest of the week, you guys! 

Okay, so let's start this off by saying that all cats - no matter what they look like - deserve love. And that means that when it comes to chonky cats, it's important to give some love to them too. Now, that being said, we knoooow that being chonky is not the healthiest thing for cats, and some of these kitties are indeed on a dechonking journey, but still! The more cat we have, the more cat we have to love, and that's precious. 

So please enjoy this collection of massive floofs, and remember to give them treats, but only in moderation. Most importantly though, remember that when you face a chonky cat, make sure to use both hands at once to pet them - they have the real estate for it, and it feels much more purrfect.

If you are a cat owner, one thing that you know for sure is that cat chaos is inevitable. Madness and shenanigans are simple part of being a cat. Why, you ask? Well, because cats are jerks, and that is a known fact. Of course, that doesn't mean that we don't love our cats. We are cat ladies and gentleman after all. The chaos is why we love them all the more. Life would be so boring without them. 

The chaos is what makes other moments even better. One moment, your cat will be destroying your bathroom curtain, and the next moment, your cat will suddenly become the most loving and wholesome creature, wanting nothing more than to cuddle their humans. 

It's the middle of the week, guys! Slowly but surely we're making it through. It can be hard though, making it to the middle of the week already takes so much energy away from us, so of course, we need a little boost. Don't you worry though, you have found yourselves in the right place. 

Every single week, we make sure to reenergize you just on time - bringing you the kind of pictures that will get your inspiration up and your imagination running again. They're pictures of animals each worth more than 1000 words - funny, beautiful, cool, weird, and just absolutely amazing. Something in here will speak to you, and we hope that whatever that will be, it'll make this week pass much more positively for you. 

Whenever the itty bitty committee gathers, everyone must attend. Every cat lover, every kitten connoisseur has to come and view these very impurrtant meetings. In these meetings, normally, they discuss how they can use their kitten cuteness to melt our hearts, as well as how they can get us to provide them with more wet food and catnip. And the most important thing they constantly talk about is the next steps they take toward taking over the world. 

We, as humans, see the danger that such meetings pose to humanity, but... we love these awwdorable kittens so much, we cannot help but allow them to continue with these purrfectly evil plans. 

You've made it to Saturday successfully, friends! Finally, the week has passed, it's time to rest and reset, and most importantly, it's time to chill and check out some memes. Because isn't that the best way to spend the weekend? Doing nothing but scrolling through ridiculous memes and pictures of animals, laughing your troubles away on this fine Saturday.

You can always trust us to be your animal meme providers, and you know that. Because, we here at Cheezburger, we know the power of Memes, and we know their importance. So, check out this collection, and if you're feeling the need for some more, we've gotchu covered. 

One of our absolute favorite things about animal twitter is how much it can fall in love randomly with the most random things. Like animals behind glasses. You may not think that's anything special, but you'd be wrong. One tweet about parrots behind glasses with water goes viral, and the rest becomes twitter history.

Twitter users sharing pictures of their own adorable animals behind glasses of water and finding other pictures of it online, and suddenly, you have one of our favorite twitter threads of all time - full of wholesome, innocence, and mild annoyance. It's perfect.
