This one's for all of you bird lovers out there. On the first day of Christmas, my true love sent to me a partridge in a pear tree . On the second day of Christmas, my true love sent to me two turtledoves and a partridge in a pear tree. On the third day of Christmas, my true love sent to me three French hens, two turtledoves, and a partridge in a pear tree. On the fourth day of Christmas, my true love sent to me four calling birds, three French hens, two turtledoves and a partridge in a pear tr…

Ribbit ribbit, y'all. Is it just me, or have any of you realized how much more popular frogs have become in the past five years? I'm talking about overall popularity in culture; frog memes , frog-inspired fashion, and the approval rating for frogs are all up. All these things have increased dramatically over the past few years, and I want to know why? Not to accuse others of being a fake fan, but I have been supporting frogs since the beginning. When I was a kid, I was only interested in a Webk…

Whoever said dogs were "Man's Best Friend" forgot to include penguins, raccoons , salmon, and all animals in the animal kingdom. Animals are the light of our lives. They deserve parades and non-toxic cakes celebrating their existence. Disney's Animal Kingdom is just that; a theme park devoted to celebrating animals 365 days a year. They say it's not a zoo, but it's totally a zoo. Animal Kingdom is 33% depictions of wildlife in Asia and Africa, 33% Pandora the World of Avatar, and 33% DInoland U…

As human beings, we tend to project human emotions and attitudes onto animals. This concept is called anthropomorphism , and even though it's not scientifically sound, it's still fun to do. In my anthropomorphic opinion, cats embody a laissez-faire attitude, appearing to be unamused and uninterested in the antics of people. Dogs are kind of the opposite. They are spunky and extroverted and want to be all up in everybody's business. Possums embody something that everyone has within them, no matt…

Do you like puns? If so, congratulations, you're in the right place. When left to my own devices, I am not a woman of the punny experience. My brain just doesn't really work that way. The puns I come up with on my own are borderline nonsensical. I usually have to explain them, which gets a lukewarm chuckle at best. Although not my wheelhouse, animals are a great subject for puns. You might say animal puns are hiss-tarical or a-moose-ing. See how punny that was! Since I have no skill for this ar…

Today is World Anteater Day , and what better way to celebrate than honor the greatest anteater of modern times, Arthur, from the hit PBS show Arthur. Arthur is not only an aardvark but also an anteater. This is a 3rd grader who contains multitudes! In his cartoon form, he resembles a mouse more than any real anteater in the wild. However, every real Arthur stan will know that he resembled an authentic anteater perfectly in his first book incarnation, Arthur's Nose. Unfortunately, the creative…

Nothing like sheeps, chickens, cows, horses, and more to put a smile on your face!

Gatekeeping is sometimes necessary. I find it unquestionably necessary to gatekeep cat and dog memes from the rest of the animal memes. There is no shortage of lists displaying hundreds of thousands of dog and cat memes. If I were a betting man, I would say there are more cat memes than any other type of meme on God's green earth. I've got nothing against dogs or cats, but I have to ask, where are the worm memes? Where are the buffalo memes? When will the non-domesticated animal of the world ge…

Unlike humans, animals don't necessarily have to perform in order to entertain others. A goofy-looking cat who transitions awkwardly between sleeping positions can potentially inspire more delight in a person than a professional comic with years of experience and practice. No one bats an eye when I wash my hair, but a shampooed cow? Standing ovation. Even the most painfully low-effort memes can fully recover if they feature a funny or adorable animal. That said, we've rounded up a glorious coll…

I'm sure we all wished we were born into the legendary Irwin Dynasty at some point. Imagine being the heiress to the Australia Zoo throne, spending your days wearing fantastic two-piece khaki outfits with your awesome and perfectly wholesome family. I, for one, want nothing more than to star in my wildlife documentary programming and continue on the legacy of Steve Irwin , aka The Crocodile Hunter. I would trade my boring non-regional American accent for that authentic Aussie twang in a heartbe…

Bark Bark. Meow Meow. These are the classic sounds of the dog and the cat we all know and love. They are the most common pets for a reason, and that reason is that they are so rad. A dog will bark when they hear you coming out of the bathroom. A cat can stretch out to over three feet. These are iconic animals that I can't help but love with all of my heart. I understand why certain people do not want dogs or cats as pets. They is much more responsibility required for a feline or a canine than a…

Dogs are an S-tier pet if there ever was one. They are called man's best friend for a reason; doggos are uncritical, love you unconditionally, and are generally a blast to be around. Dogs might not be for everyone, but if you're an extrovert who wants even more social interaction in your life, then these furry friends are perfect for you. Even if you're more of an introvert, having a sweet, cuddly, and quiet dog around you is a welcome distraction from all the annoying people in the world. Alth…

Isn't it crazy how we're all animals ? You and me are just as much of an animal as a fish or a bird. The only difference is that we convince ourselves we're better than other animals because we're the apex predator allegedly. As far as I'm concerned, the only thing that humans have better than animals is language. We can conjugate sentences, and they can do nothing of the sort. That's all we've got on them. Most other animals do not have to go to work. Sure, they have to get food and clean them…

Hilariously wholesome

I grew up in a family obsessed with dogs. Whenever we went on road trips, we played a compelling game of my creation, creatively titled, “The Dog Breed Game.”
