surprised

Surprise! Well, it can't be that much of a surprise. These expressive pets look as if they were just told the most shocking news -- and what's more shocking than finding out you're adopted? We're sure there are plenty of things but this one just felt right. 

Expressive animals are one of our favorite things in this world, it's so hilarious and truly makes it known that all animals carry an arrange of emotions, just like us. You can see when they're angry, scared, or happy. You can tell when they're shocked, curious, or suspicious. They wear their heart on their sleeve, their facial expressions just give them away and we're so thankful for that! 

There are cats who are more expressive than others but all cats can show some facial expressions. Here are 20 pets who just discovered the dreaded truth... they aren't the hooman's biological baby. 

You know that cat look - when they suddenly pause and glare at something, pupils slightly dilated, curious with a look of very mild confusion on their face? Yeah, that look. The look they give the bird that sits on their windowsill as if someone dared give it permission to sit there. Rude bird. The subreddit r/MildlyStartledCats knows what we're talking about. 

It's that cat look that you, as the owner of said cat, cannot help but laugh at. I mean, cats are always hilarious, that's kinda their thing. They're silly and have a tendency to zoom right into the wall sometimes. But what makes them special is that, really, even their very mild confusion by simple, totally normal things, is hilarious to anyone who loves cats at all.
