I never had a pet growing up. I know, I know. Stop crying for me, guys. I’m okay now. I finally got over it. We had a couple birds (they don’t count), and we also had a dog for about two days until my parents gave it back. (Don’t even get me started…) I have always lived vicariously through my friends who have dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, etc. I was insanely jealous of them when I was younger and wished that I could have their pets as my pets. I wanted to become a professional pet-napper, if you will.
As a little girl deprived of a childhood pet, I quickly came to love YouTube. Basically for its plethora of dog videos, cat videos, any cute animal videos, etc. Some of the best videos out there are of pets doing silly tricks for treats. Instead of working on your resume or that final paper, why don’t you watch all these videos instead? Because Sundays are for procrastinating, and this is the perfect way to do that! Enjoy!

PDA or public displays of affection, when humans do it excessively and in inappropriate places (subway, class, movie theaters, church, etc.), we all gag and want to shoot said humans. We’re all, “Get a room!” as we take our bitter self to the nearest candy store. Public displays of affection can tick a lot of people off, but what about if it’s a furry little animal lovin’ on another furry little animal? I think we’d all be okay admitting that there is only one thing more precious than a cute animal, and that is two cute animals.
It’s time for your daily dose of cuteness, and it comes in the form of animals loving on each other! They have friends and lovers and homies just like we do! Be prepared to melt into a puddle of cuteness (especially when you see the red pandas!).
Katie is finishing up her undergrad at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois. She enjoys wasting hours on Facebook and tweeting things no one cares about. When asked the question, “Do you do marathons?” She promptly responds, “Of course! Which show?” Follow her @KatieGarrity! Or read her personal blog where she talks about Ryan Gosling and hummus a lot here!
These cold winter months can freeze your heart over, turning you into an uncaring, gloomy person who skulks the house around watching re-runs and eating stale Pringles. Let’s avoid becoming this person, shall we? If there’s one thing to melt the icicles from your soul, it’s baby animals. Fluffy, cuddly, happy baby animals.
Put down the remote, wipe the crumbs from the front of your oversize sweatshirt and try not to feel all warm and fuzzy. Next step: Trying to convince your parents to get you a baby duck and take care of it while you’re back at school. Read More »
You know what happens when college kids come back home to visit for the first time? We eat. A lot. We’ve got to get our hands on as much of the delicious food in our fridge as we can before we’re back in the car on our way to school.
My mom is a phenomenal cook, so when I would come home from school there was no stopping me. So what, they called me an animal a few times but really, who cares? I didn’t eat nearly as much as my older brother, so any insults they could think of didn’t really faze me.
It wasn’t until after I graduated that I started to feel a little uncomfortable when I was still scarfing down platters of mom’s home cooking. It was then that my animalistic nature started to really surface. And bother me.
While I’m still dealing with my own animalistic intentions (I’m sensitive, alright?), I’ve got a little somethin’-somethin’ for all of you currently enrolled animal-like college kids: animals behaving like people!
If you thought we were bad, wait ‘til you see some of these out of control photos! Then ask mom and dad which they’d rather deal with. Read More »
Despite not wanting kids anytime soon there are certain things that make my uterus explode, like Ryan Gosling feeding a baby. Even when there’s a screaming child next to me on the subway, some pictures make me drown out the sound and yearn for kids of my own. Now that your insurance provider has to cover your birth control, here’s a collection of cute that will make your ovaries ache.
You didn’t leave all your work until Sunday night did you? What!?! You did. That’s okay. No stress. You’ll get it all done. We’re so sure that you’ll get it all done that we’re giving you a few more excuses to procrastinate.
If your college was anything like mine, dorm pets were a total no no. I mean, people did it anyway (FYI: I don't care what you say or how often you clean that cage, hamsters f*cking SMELL), but if the college caught you with an animal in your room (and no, guys didn't count), you could be fined a pretty big fine and even kicked off campus.
Too bad this freaking tiny dog wasn't around back when I was in school. You could hide this thing in the pocket of your skinny jeans. It's poor little brain is probably the size of a hazelnut, but if you like your animals miniaturized, then maybe you should hop on a plane to Japan and scope one out.
