It's time to take a moment out of your day to immerse yourself in the overwhelming cuteness that is to come! Sleepy kitten teefies, mid yawn big teefies, mid meow teefies, we got all the kitty teefies right here for your viewing pleasure. I think we can all agree that cats are some of the most awwdorable and purrfect animal creatures. (And if you disagree just know that you're wrong.) 

But what about their cute little kitty teefies!! Lil kitty teefies, in our opinion, are probably the most overlooked and underappreciated aspect of kitty cuteness. Their physical attributions definitely contribute towards their intense charm. We often find ourselves ooing and ahhing over their big coats of floof, their sweet lil ears, and their kind sensitive smiles. But now, it's time to bring out your best toothie smiles and enjoy these teefie kitty pics!

Man's best friend just became man's hero! Alex Loredo, owner of 7 year old Marley, can thank his furry four legged friend for literally saving his life. He had just gone outside to check his dryer, located behind his house, and all of a sudden he heard the snake, loud, and approaching. Marley, being the brave and heroic pooch that he is, swooped in to save the day.

Before he could even turn, Marley had run out the door, pushed him out of the way, and gotten in between the snake and and his owner, Alex Loredo. NBC Sandiego reports: "Marley, Loredo's 7-year-old Labrador, was then attacked by the snake. 'My heart just dropped,' said Loredo. The snake slithered away, and Loredo and his mom rushed Marley to the vet. 'It was complete panic,' Loredo described. 'My heart was racing and I didn't know what was going to happen next. To be completely honest, I thought he was just going to die in the car.' At the vet, the lab was administered a few doses of antivenin and admitted into the pet hospital for two days. 'That's the longest I've ever been away from him, so it was a really sad experience for me,' Loredo said. It's been two weeks since the bite and Marley has recovered. By now, Loredo says, even his playful spirit is back. The young friendly pup can now add hero to the long list of qualities Loredo says make him his best friend." We wish Marley a speedy recovery! He truly is a hero!

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Another productive week is well on its way and we are already thinking about the weekend to come. Time to give today our all and smoothly glide over the hump of the week! Then it's smoooooth sailing straight to the weekend. Every week, we search high and low for the most humorous animal memes and tweets all for enjoyment!

This week, dearest viewers, we have compiled for you an especially humorous series of all things animal. We got memes, we got tweets, we got laughs, and we got smiles. Yes this the exact prescription that you needed, no we are not doctors. As the wise Ferris Bueller once said: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look at some animal memes every once in a while, you could miss it." (Or something like that!)

Long days mean tired bunnies. We can only imagine how difficult and straining a day in the life of a bunny can be. First there's a lot of sleeping involved, which in it of itself is tiring. Then we got eating hours, do you know how much energy a bunny can exert while eating?? Neither do we, but if we had to guess it would probably be a lot!

These awdorable little bundles of floof have had long, tiring days. Now they are expressing how they feel through this series of HUGE yawns. It does not matter where they are, at home in chilling in their house-like structures, out and about bouncing around the house, or gone for a walk to the park, these rabbits are SLEEPY and they want you to know it!

Hello to all of our fellow animal lovers, appreciators, owners, parents, and everyone else who happens to be reading this. What on this earth could possibly be better, more awwdorable, cuter, sillier, more hilarious, more perfect, than animals? That's right, nothing. We love all animals and appreciate all the humor and pawsitvity they bring to our lives!

We've got a treat for you today, just like every other day, yes, but today even more so! Today is a special day! We have compiled a series of hilariousss animal gifs. We got all things silly for ya. Consider it a gift from us to you. Keep on giving and share this with a friend who has been in need of a gift in the form of animal gifs.

Bruce the Rescue Cat is a very special kitty indeed! Bruce is a polydactyl cat, meaning that he was born with a couple extra toes. Due to this, he has very unique and beautiful mittens, featuring his polydactyly. He uses his extra thumbs to his advantage! Polydactyl Cats are totally pawsome and have an amazing genetic mutation.

"These cats sporting numerous toes are one of the most awesome and fascinating felines; albeit their appearance can be somewhat bizarre to folks who have never seen one. In the United States, these supernumerary-toed kitties have often been called "mitten cats" or "Hemingway" cats. Ernest Hemmingway (the best-selling author of "The Old Man and the Sea" and countless other famous popular classic novels) was a passionate cat lover. He was presented with Snowball (a polydactyl cat) as a personal gift by a ship's captain in 1933. Snowball went on to produce many litters of ploydactyl kittens (the gene passes on). As many as 50 of Snowball's ancestors are living the life of luxury today; spoiled and pampered by the staff at the Hemingway Home Museum in Key West, Florida."  Via Florida Wild Veterinary Hospital. Fun facts and lots of toe beans? Yes please.

We have found yet another dazzling species. We had no idea that bees could even be blue, and then we stumbled upon the blue carpenter and became eager to learn more about it!

"The blue carpenter bee is found throughout Southeast Asia, India, and Southern China, and they're known for being large and heavy bees that live solitary lives, and are generally non-aggressive. While European honey bees (the most common species in Australia) grow to just 17 mm long, blue carpenter bees can reach a whopping 28 mm, which makes them appear eerily hefty." Via Australian Geographic. Wait a sec, not only are these bees beautifully blue, but they are also adorably chonky?! This just gets better and better.

"The blue carpenter bee is all about the females. It's the females who sport that brilliant blue pubescence (yep that's what the fuzz is called), and the females alone wield a stinger." Girl power!! Are we right ladies or are we right?  "The males are stinger-less, and have a more subdued, brown or greenish fuzz. Unlike honey bees, which build complex and intricate hives filled with tens of thousands of workers and a single queen, carpenter bees live alone, burrowing into trees to create a perfect little nest for themselves." Via Australian Geographic.

Oof we absolutely hate to see animals that are injured, or in pain. However, it fills our hearts with hope and wholesome goodness when kind folks passing by manage to spot this phenomenon and promptly intervene! We truly believe that it is part of our responsibility as humans on earth to protect our fellow animal species and always lend a helping hand!

Today an Imgur user came across an injured red-tailed hawk and immediately intervened. Let's learn a bit more about red-tailed hawks shall we? According to All About Birds: "This is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you've got sharp eyes you'll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere. Red-tailed Hawks soar above open fields, slowly turning circles on their broad, rounded wings." Our bird in question was taken to the nearest vet who could accommodate her! We wish her a super speedy recovery.

Hey folks! You know this as well as we do, but animals can be pretty heckin weird. It does not even matter what type of animal, dogs, cats, and all other members of the animal kingdom have a derp side! Today we have compiled for you a diverse arrangement of some of the derpiest derps of the week! These derptastic videos are bound to hit you right in the funny bone. Don't even try to contain your laughter, let it out and let everyone hear it!

We anticipate that you, the viewer, will appreciate the wonder of the derp just as much as we do. Everyone has those silly moments, including us humans, we can't help it! Sighs. If only we looked as cute as these animals while having our own human derp moments, though! Oh well, not everyone can be as cute as these awwdorable goofs. Enjoy and don't forget to laugh!

Hello, everyone! Get ready to meet someone so very wise, so very old, and so very…wrinkly? This Guinness World Record holder is the oldest known land animal alive today, clocking in at just 190 years old, it's Jonathan the Tortoise! Born in 1832, Jonathan has lived through many significant historic events including wars and over 40 American presidents!

According to an article by the Guinness World Records: "His estimated year of birth also predates the release of the Penny Black, the first postage stamp (1840), the building of the first skyscraper (1885) and the completion of the Eiffel Tower (1887) – the tallest iron structure.  Other human milestones to have taken place in his long life include the first photograph of a person (1838), the first incandescent light bulb (1878) and the first powered flight (1903)."

"Although originating from the Seychelles in the Indian Ocean, Jonathan has resided on the remote island of St Helena in the South Atlantic since 1882.  
When Jonathan was brought to St Helena, he was already fully grown. Based on known data for this species, that would indicate he was about 50 years of age at the time (hence his estimated birth year of 1832 to make him the longest-lived animal on land). Jonathan was gifted to the then-governor of the Overseas British territory, William Grey-Wilson (in office 1890–97), and he has lived at the governor's residence ever since."
