tweets

Roaming through the wasteland of Twitter, looking for the cutest animals that would fill your stomach with butterflies yet again, we came across something that we absolutely had to share. A thread of round animals by @effies who not only found some of the roundest fluffiest most circular animals on the internet but captioned each one of them with an adorable comment as well. There was no way to stop the 'aww's once they started. 

Other Twitter users, of course, loved this thread as well, and the participation in it was astrounding, with each picture getting thousands of likes and other users sending pictures of their own circles of joy as well. So, we hope you enjoy this circular journey as much as we did, starting with cute and ending with cute. And if this isn't enough roundness for you, here's some more.

Bringing you the best of this week's cat twitter! Check out the tweets that people have been interested in throughout the week that are all. about. cats. Because we know that there's nothing to better end the week with than puuurfect twitter cat content. There's something for everyone, that's the beauty of the craziness of twitter.

It's time to relax and forget the difficulties of the past week for just a moment. So, make a cup of tea, sit on the couch, try to get your cat to cuddle with you and fail, then try again and and - if you're lucky - succeed, and enjoy this cat-tastic collection. And if you're interested in more of what twitter has to offer, take a look at this week's collection of the most popular tweets about animals. 

Though fall has just started and many of us are suffering from a serious heat wave, before the cold finally hits, we thought that this is just the time to show appreciation to what nature can provide us with. Cats and flowers. Nature's most beautiful creations, right? So, what's better than combining the two and taking in some incredibly aesthetically pleasing, aww-worthy pictures of our darling princes and princesses wearing flower crowns? 

It's not just cats too. If you're in the mood to celebrate nature's beauty some more and would like a dash of tongue lolling, pawdorable dogs in flower crowns, we've got you covered. 

Every cat owner know that cats looove sitting on stuff that they really shouldn't be sitting on. You get up from your chair for half a second? Hi, yes, it's your cat's chair now. You put your laundry on your bed? It'll be full of fur before you even blink. Your laptop? You mean the warm glowy thing that you bought for your cat as a new bed, right? That's definitely what your cat thinks.

There is a line though. There has to be. Because cute as they are, if your cat starts sitting on your turtle, it might be time to get the water spritzer out. Or pause to take a picture, then quickly save your turtle, then laugh. That's also a good option.

Have you ever wondered about what your pets do when you aren't watching them? Well, these twitter users lucked out and found out. Or didn't luck out. Because whatever you think these hooligans might be doing, you probably don't expect to catch your two dogs making out or your cat licking your toothbrush. Sometimes, they even try to be sneaky, thinking that you won't catch them, but then they're sprinting across the room and something ends up broken. Yeah...

And if these shenanigans are not enough, we've got some perfectly timed photos of cats caught midair and dogs doing things that they shouldn't be for you. We love our pets no matter what though, that's undeniable! We just... prefer to not drink from the same glass as them.

Whatever your mood may be, we can always do with an added wholesome boost to lift the spirits! And there's no boost greater than one filled with animals. 

The very definition of wholesome is "promoting health or well-being of mind or spirit," and we can honestly say that what animal-related content does. Well, at least to us. Hopefully, you too. 

Get ready for some seriously smiles, you won't be able to hold it in after this delightful bunch of images! 

Along with their soft bellies, poke-able noses, and squishy cheeks, ears are probably one of the top cat components. They perk up at any tiny noise, they're fluffy and kissable, and they – impressively – can individually turn in basically every direction. And we definitely know that cats can hear all the ghosts around us with these ears, that's clearly why they seem to hear things that we don't. We love cats' ears, so the more ear a cat has, the better, right?

These pictures of cats with extraordinarily cute big ears will hopefully allow you to live the big eared cat dream vicariously through the screen. Because even though we unfortunately can't touch these ears and rub right behind them until these kitty cats purr their heart out, we can 100% still aww at them.

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!

Oh, sweet, sweet doggo thoughts. Is there anything in this world purer than the Twitter handle, "Thoughts of Dog?" The answer to that question is no. 

Thoughts of Dog has been a beacon of light in these unsure times, it's something we can always count on to provide us with some smiles, and some laughter. All we can say is, thank goodness for Thoughts of Dog...  and for dogs everywhere. Dogs truly deserve the world.

If for some unexplained reason, these newfound thoughts aren't providing you with enough wholesomeness, we can always venture back in time for previous tweets! 

Breaking tweets! Start your week with this week's freshest viral animal tweets and see which animals are making news. Laugh at the memes, have your heart melt from adorableness, and get inspired by some incredible photos. 

Week by week, we bring you the best of animal twitter, so if this week's tweets weren't enough, you can always check out last week's. 

We wish you a lovely day, and may you pet a cute cat this week!

Yikes! For anyone who's ever had a wasps nest grow on or near their house -- you know how terrifying (and dangerous) that is. For those who don't know, consider yourself lucky. Wasp stings hurt. A lot. 

But, unlike those pesky mosquitos which serve no purpose but to spread disease, at least wasps contribute to the world by controlling pest insect populations. 

And even though they are beneficial to the human population, it's never a good sign to see these terrifying nests growing so close to home. Twitter user, @thegallowboob, had shared a terrifying image of a wasps nest growing around headlights of a garage, giving it a demonic-look whenever the lights are turned on. Other users began sharing the wasps' nest near them, as well as other creepy animals that hang around their house. 

All we can say is... thanks for the nightmares! 

Weekly order of fresh animal tweets coming right up! There's absolutely no better way to start your week without the combination of new animal tweets and our wholesome memes.

Between the two, you'll have enough cuteness and funnies to hopefully see you through the week in one piece. 

Your weekly treat is cooked to perfection this week, but if you're in the mood for one-week-old stale treats (that are still edible and quite delicious) look no further! 

It's not crazy if it works, right? 

Twitter user, Christopher Doyle, shared with the Twitterverse on August 25th, 2020, that his daughter made a PowerPoint presentation in hopes of convincing her parents to adopt a cat. 

Her PowerPoint presentation hits a lot of excellent points, such as the pros of getting a cat, how she was promised a hamster five years ago and never received one, and overall, just how happy it would make her. Three excellent points, indeed. And after the overwhelming response on Twitter, Christopher Doyle shared an image of a cat adoption slip! That's right -- his daughter is finally getting a cat! 

Congratulations to Christopher Doyle's daughter, and family, a cat is a wonderful addition always.
