Can the entire human race have a spirit animal? Because if so, it's definitely possums. Maybe it's something about their expressive little faces—one moment they're full of curious wonder and the next they're hissing on top of a heap of trash. Yup, sounds just like an average day as a human. We've got a special bunch of surprisingly relatable memes that showcase our trash bandit brethren for anyone in a sassy mood.

For a long time being a trash animal was a raccoon's game. The masked bandits would creep around in the night, destroying garbage bags of food, rifling through compost, even traipsing into Brooklyn apartments to drink water from a cat's fountain. That last one happened right in front of my eyes. Until recently, raccoons left our other favorite trash critter, possums, in the dust. While they may not be quite as cute as their rivals, they have got heaps of personality. And we're happy to see that in the past couple years they've received a lot of love in the meme department. These excellent specimens are proof.

It's pretty widely accepted that animals are better than humans. And by a lot. They don't start unnecessary wars and aren't money-hungry heartless creatures. So we figured we'd put out this list of animal memes and comics to show our appreciation for the fluffy, the feathered, the scaled, and even the hairless. You make the world a better place.
