Imagine discovering a tree full of magical-looking animals right in your backyard. It must feel absolutely magical. Like stepping into a fairytale, Snow White going on a stroll in the woods, walking to a bunch of adorable owls. 

This twitter thread tells the story of a person who must have felt that exact way, walking into their neighbor's backyard and finding a tree full of the most unique, magical-looking owls in a tree right in their backyard. Personally, having never come across this type of owl before, I would been stunned. A huge group of gorgeous red-eyed long-eared owls are living in their person's backyard, and they are so beautiful it's hard to look away.

We must warn you - the animal that you're about to see is the most elusive animal you've ever gazed upon. It is the big cat spider. It is only seen once every blue moon. Spread out across the tress in all its glory, limbs loose and perfectly camaflauged. These spider leopards and jaguars are animals of grace, and they are lethal... in their cuteness. 

Okay, fine, they're not real spiders. That's just our excuse to make the cutest collection of big cats hanging out in trees. Because wanting to climb up is not just a house cat thing. Then again, all big cats have a little house cat energy in them, and that only makes us love them more. 

'Tis the season! Thanksgiving is over and the holiday season is well on its way! We're seeing people put up their trees everywhere! And those who have cats know more than anyone how this next month will be.

The age-old classic, cats vs Christmas trees. It's a yearly segment that we never get tired of because there's always new and hilarious content out there of cats destroying or plotting to destroy that highly decorated tree. Will the humans win this year and have their tree up all season? Or are they simply doomed and their cats shall be the ones to decide their faith?

Sweet darlings cats, if there's one universal truth is that they have this need to be within that tree, they have a desire to attack those ornament, to take down the tree entirely. They can't help it, they are programmed to destroy that tree. Who was it that programmed that function is not known to us, but we have reason to believe it was a higher power.... ceiling cat, perhaps?

Us humans take months, sometimes over a year to take our first steps, while many animals only ever take a couple minutes. But some animal babies are capable of even more than that, like these tiny totally safe-to-cuddle bear cubs who have already perfected the art of climbing trees at their tini-tiny age. 

It's an experience every tiny bear cub will go through at some point in their lives, and not only is it insanely impressive, it is also incredibly cute. So, take a look at these pawdoable bear cubs taking their first steps (up a tree) with their mommies there to help and protect them and enjoy your heart melting of cute. 

Most indoor "cat trees" are actually multi-level scratchers that don't really look like real trees and therefore, don't provide the lifelike outdoor experience for us, as cat owners, as well as for our furry friends.    

Shelley and Joe DelRocco, an animal lover couple from Florida, decided to step in and create custom made treehouses from real trees and silk leaves. The new pieces are aesthetically-pleasing house plants you will never have to water but will upgrade the total look of your house and provide your kitty with the outdoor feel while being indoor.  
The DelRoccos made their first pet treehouse for their own cats in 2008. Since then, their home business soon grew, and today they sell their designs to cat owners all over the U.S. and beyond: "Our real cat tree with leaves is designed to focus on your cat's true nature, bringing out your cat's primal instincts," the DelRoccos told My modern Met. "This method helps reduce captive stress and encourages your cat to stretch and scratch on the gnarled branches, bark, lichen and all." Check out their beautiful designs on etsy.

Catipilla is a new innovative cat product you should definitely learn more about. 

It was inspired by Smudge, an 18-year-old house cat who was struggling to clamber into a ground floor window. Her owners, The Sutton Family, sort out a creative solution to help her get in and out home after refusing to drill holes in their door for a cat flap. From wood and nails, the first Catipilla concept was born. The wooden platforms have since evolved into a durable, wall-mounted structure that encou- rages cats to climb naturally while saving space in the home. The Catipilla Pro and the Catipilla Mini feature high-quality, UK-manufactured pillars and adjustable tread plates that can be tailo- red to every cat's needs. Catipilla's range also includes an adjustable high plate and cat ham- mock, perfect for bird watching and catnaps. Catipilla can be used both indoors and outdoors and its array of health benefits make it the perfect fit for every cat.

The Argania tree is not the most aesthetically pleasing plant in the world with a rough, thorny bark and gangly, crooked branches. But these Moroccan trees still tend to attract admirers, thanks in large part to the hordes of goats that can usually be found perching in them.

A pair of off-duty troopers from the Kentucky State Police were helping to mow a cemetery lawn few days ago when they heard what sounded like a dog in distress emanating from a forested area close by, so they decided to investigate.
