Animals

You will not believe how close these deer got to a young man. The wild animals seemed to have absolutely no fear of the little guy. Watch the short but jaw-dropping video to see the surprising and almost unbelievable way the animals reacted to the child.

Animals are, without a doubt, some of the best creatures God ever placed on this earth. That’s a statement no one is likely to find nearly universal agreement. How can you not love and adore those critters? Even if you wouldn’t necessarily consider yourself an animal person, you more than likely still possess a soft spot in your heart for them.

Now, as anyone who has ever interacted with an animal before understands, not all animals are the same. They will not react in the same manner to every situation and environment. Some animals are much more welcoming of human attention than others. Dogs and cats, for instance, enjoy human attention and interaction for the most part. Others, more wild animals, are more likely to shun it and shy away from it completely.

A posted clip demonstrates that while wild animals, by and large, would rather be left alone, that is not always the case. The video shows two deer quietly and cautiously approaching a young man, hoping to get something to fill their stomachs.

The scene is so strange yet utterly captivating. You’re unable to look away because it appears not to be real. It looks like something straight out of a Disney movie. The little guy appears totally freaked out, unsure of what to do in this situation, yet not wanting to hurt or scare the animals walking toward him.

I can’t say that I would know what to do if I were in his shoes. I’d likely react similarly. I’m pretty sure my eyes would be just as wide, unable to truly believe the sight before me.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

A tabby cat creeping slowly toward a bird resting in the family’s backyard. The cat lowered its body and moved step by step, clearly preparing to pounce. Before the cat could get close enough, a small white dog ran over and disrupted everything. It first placed its paws on the cat’s head, then tugged at the cat’s tail, completely breaking the cat’s concentration. The interference kept getting worse. The dog eventually climbed right onto the cat’s back, leaving the hunting attempt with no chance of success. Meanwhile, the bird remained ahead, and the cat’s careful stalking plan was effectively destroyed. The funniest part of the scene was the dog’s expression, which looked completely innocent, as if it had no idea what the cat was trying to do.

A pup’s plan to keep its toys hilariously backfires. The canine did not want to relinquish possession of a handful of items, and so the animal hatched a scheme to keep them, but that did not work out as expected. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see what the pup did to keep its toys and how it backfired massively.

Getting rid of things can be difficult, especially if they have specific memories attached. Yes, there may even be a few tears shed during that process. However, the simple fact is that we cannot hold onto everything that comes into our possession. No one wants to end up on an episode of “Hoarders,” right?

While purging these items from our households can be challenging and even emotionally draining, it’s necessary. Getting rid of old, unwanted things makes room for the new. Every new beginning is only possible because of some other beginning’s end. Don’t be sad about something because it’s over; be happy because it happened. Or, you know, insert your preferred cliché about endings and beginnings.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a dog was having trouble letting go of its toys. It did not want to see these toys go away. They were special to the animal. So, in an attempt to foil its owner’s plan, the animal hatched a plan to hold onto those treasured items.

The video shows the animal running to the medicine cabinet and grabbing a bottle. While the woman was momentarily distracted, the canine, with the bottle in its paw, rushed over to the mug she was sipping from. Then, the animal started making a concoction that, theoretically, would have made her fall asleep.

However, that did not happen. Instead, the pup, being unable to read, mistakenly spiked her drink with caffeine. The pup’s owner would not be taking a nap anytime soon.

The looks the two dogs exchange are hysterical. They both seem to know they’ve failed, and it's just a matter of time until their precious toys are gone.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This dog’s obsession with a slide is what you need today. The pup’s love and inability to get enough of this piece of playground equipment are both cute and hysterical. Watch the short but hilarious clip to see just how obsessed this dog is with this slide.

Everyone has spent their fair share of time on the playground. Who hasn’t? Weren’t those some fun times? Now, while you may not have visited one since your younger days, which may have been decades in some cases, you are more than familiar with them and can easily name pieces of equipment you’re likely to find on a given playground.

What’s even more likely is that you had a favorite piece of playground equipment. Personally, it didn’t get any better than the swings. Those things could literally take you to new heights as you soared backward and forward as the wind whipped through your hair. Also, if you were brave enough, when you were finished with the swings, you might have even let go while the swing was at a decent height, sending you soaring through the air until you inevitably made it back down to earth.

While the swings were obviously the best part of the playground, others might have felt differently. Some may have thought the slides offered a better, more fulfilling experience. That is how one pup feels, as it clearly cannot get enough of the slide. A posted clip shows that once the animal slides down and comes to a stop at the bottom of the playground equipment, it literally sprints back to the top.

No matter how much you may have liked the merry-go-round, the swings or the monkey bars, you did not like them nearly as much as this pup loves the slide.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This adorable moment between a cat and a baby goat is almost too cute. The two unlikely pals showed each other a little love and affection. Watch the short, but oh so sweet clip to see what the tiny goat and the feline did that will most certainly be the cutest thing you see today.

Friends make life a fuller, richer and all-around better experience. No one wants to go through life alone. Even the quietest, most introverted person doesn’t desire an existence like that. How awful and lonely would that be? You wouldn’t wish that on your worst enemy.

Those we call friends are among the first we call when something good happens in our lives. Also, they are there as a shoulder to cry upon whenever something horrible happens. They are always willing to listen and talk, if that’s what we need, as well. See, who wouldn’t want as many friends as possible? They make the good times better and the challenging, difficult or painful times a little more bearable.

Another great thing about friendships is that anyone can be a friend. You don’t have to have the same background, beliefs or even be the same age to be friends. A sweet, heartwarming clip proves that anyone can be friends – even a cat and a baby goat.

How precious is this? The cat and the goat cannot get enough of one another as they show each other how much they care, continually rubbing their heads together.

This video is, without a doubt, special, especially given a cat's typical nature. Felines can at least appear to be aloof and uncaring, and shy away from showing affection and only do so when they feel like doing so. They are very different from dogs in that way, who are always ready to show how much they care. But that is not the case here, making for a beautiful, heart-melting moment between the two buddies.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters, brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after their kind: and God saw that it was good.”

A dog and an otter had a ball playing a game of tag. The two unlikely friends had the time of their lives chasing one another in what is arguably the cutest game of tag. Watch the short but adorable clip to see the two pals have fun chasing each other.

It’s impossible to have too many friends. No one will ever reach a point where they can say they have reached their limit with friendships. I mean, someone could theoretically say that, but there isn’t like an actual limit on the number of friendships one can have.  Also, that message isn’t likely to be received well. Can you imagine being on the receiving end of that?

Anyway, animals seem to be able to become friends with just about anyone. That’s one of the many things we all love about those creatures. Show them a little bit of kindness and love, and they’ll be your buddy for life. It doesn’t matter if you’re a human being, a warthog, the cat from across the street, a one-eyed penguin or a temperamental dairy cow; animals can make friends with anyone and anything.

A clip posted on social media captures one of these odd, but incredibly cute pairings. The surprising pals – an otter and a dog – are almost too cute as they play a friendly and super adorable game of tag. And if you don’t believe that’s why they are doing, just watch for a couple of seconds, and you’ll soon discover that that is exactly the game they are playing.

The two friends don’t let the fact that one is in the water while the other is on dry land keep them from having an absolute ball. You will be hard-pressed to find a cuter and more precious game of tag than this one played between an otter and a dog.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

These pups helped themselves when someone forgot dinner. The two canines took matters into their own hands, or more accurately, paws. Watch the short but hysterical clips to see how these dogs stepped up and took action when it was time for their dinner.

Everyone loves to eat, and most people, from the looks of it, are pretty good at it, too. Americans have such a love affair with food that we shamelessly put our gluttony on full display with food contests. Of course, one of the biggest and most prominent is the annual Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July hot dog-eating contest in New York. When it comes to competitions, I don’t think it can get any grosser.

But seriously, who doesn’t enjoy scarfing down a plate of delicious food, especially when the clock says it’s dinner time? However, when that special time arrives, and food is nowhere to be found, we get a little nervous and anxious. We tend to get a little hangry if things aren’t ready as usual. The hunger pains can even become so bad that we might choose to take things into our own hands.

As it turns out, human beings aren’t the only ones who will act accordingly if dinner does not arrive in the proper and expected timeframe. A clip posted on YouTube shows what two pups did to satisfy their hunger. They gave their owner an opportunity to correct her tardiness, but when they couldn’t wait any longer, they acted decisively.

After she ignored their staring, they swiped her phone, opened up an app and placed a very important order. The two animals even worked out a hilarious way of going about paying for the order while keeping their shenanigans completely undiscovered and undetected until the very last possible moment.

The most hilarious part of the entire clip is when the woman walks into the living room to find the two pups chowing down on a pizza, and one of them looks at her as if to say, “Yes, may I help you?”

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

A massive pig had an adorable reaction when it spotted a familiar face. The sweet animal could not contain its joy during a friendly encounter. Watch the short but heartwarming clip to see how the hog reacted when it saw someone it knew.

Animals are some of the best creatures on Earth. Most are cute and furry, making it nearly impossible to pass them without kneeling down to give them a few friendly belly rubs or pats on the head. Is there anyone who does not like animals? If, for some reason, there are individuals who aren’t too keen on animals, how is that even possible?

Show them a little bit of love and attention and you’ve likely got a friend for life. They will remember your kindness toward them for a long time to come and will more than likely light up every time you come around. Who wouldn’t want someone to react with unbridled happiness and joy whenever they come around?

Now, typically, when we talk about animals and how wonderful they are, it’s a dog or a cat. And too fair, pups and felines, as pet owners – past and present – know, make for excellent additions to the family. But in this particular instance, it’s not a dog or a cat that you need to see. It’s actually a pig, and it is large, which is an understatement. But how the large hog responds when it spots a sanitation worker is just too cute to miss.

In the clip posted on social media, the pig takes off on a dead sprint when it spots the truck pulling up. This, the pig knows, means that its buddy is likely to present, and the animal is 100 percent right.

The pig rushes over to the fence, where it is greeted by its pal, who comments, "It’s been a long time, no see since their last encounter."

“Hey, buddy!” the man says as he approaches the pig. “What are you doing? I missed you, bud.”
What an absolutely cute moment!

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

A pup lent a helping paw to its buddy during a hairy situation. One dog believed there was trouble brewing and did what it thought best to help its friend. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see what had one of the pups so concerned and what it did to try to correct the situation.

As every pet owner understands, animals need to be groomed. While it is necessary, that is rarely, if ever, a fun process for the animal or its owner, but it has to be done regardless. No one wants a smelly dog or one with a tangled, matted coat, because that is not an enjoyable situation for anyone. Therefore, the periodic grooming sessions will continue.

Typically, when a dog, and many cats, for that matter, are brushed, hair will accumulate either on the brush or the floor. Of course, every pet owner knows this is normal; brushing is nothing more than a way to pull away loose hairs and keep the animal’s coat clean and healthy.

But what might that look like from the animal’s point of view? Would they freak out and wonder if they may be balding? How would they attempt to correct their perceived hair loss? I don’t think there’s Rogaine for animals, so they would have to look for other solutions. A clip posted on YouTube shows a buddy helping its fellow canine, who obviously thought its friend was balding.

The pup comes across its buddy being brushed and is immediately intrigued. That’s when the dog spots all of its pal’s hair falling to the floor. Surely, this isn’t normal, the dog must be thinking. That’s when the dog comes up with a solution, albeit a very unconventional and impractical one, but a solution, nonetheless.

The dog with hair tapped to itself to hide its shedding looks about as natural and normal as someone who undergoes a hair transplant to cover their hair loss.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This adorable pup clearly likes water…a lot. The sweet dog cannot wait for more water to be poured on it. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see how the canine acted when it spent some time on a splash pad.

Not all animals are the same. In fact, anyone who tells you otherwise is absolutely, 100 percent dead wrong, has never actually had a pet or both. Why? Because they clearly have no idea about what they are talking about. Yes, I agree and will concede that some animals look similar to one another. Still, when it comes to personality, likes and dislikes, there are differences, significant ones in some cases.

Pet owners know that one animal may enjoy this while the other may absolutely despise it. What causes one animal to be content and to purr as it enjoys a state of euphoria might be the very thing that causes the other one to growl, bark or lash out angrily. It’s all about getting to know that specific animal and understanding what they like and do not.

For instance, many animals – cats, dogs and others – hate water. It doesn’t matter if it’s them getting a bath or splashed with a few drops; they will shake furiously to rid themselves of the wet substance or just generally react negatively whenever they come into contact with water. However, other animals may love water and be unable to get enough of it. A clip posted on social media captured a pup having the time of its life on a splash pad.

The dog knew exactly what was coming and when. The animal literally leaped for joy, trying to get closer to the water as it rained down on it. Hilariously, the dog would anticipate which bucket would turn over and douse it with water, and most of the time it was correct.

What an adorable sight of a pup having a great time!

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

These pups know where they sit and aren’t moving for anyone. No one is going to stand, or more accurately, in their way. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see how far these canines are willing to go to get to the place they enjoy the most.

Everyone loves animals, and anyone who does not is, without question, wrong. How could you not love and appreciate those cute, furry and four-legged critters? Even people who would necessarily consider themselves dog or cat people have a soft spot in their hearts for those precious creatures.

It's abundantly clear that animals make life a better, fuller and richer experience. While we undoubtedly love those critters, they can become a tad demanding, hard-headed and downright stubborn. Anyone who has ever had a pet understands all too well what I’m describing. That dog, no matter what you did, would refuse to go on a walk. Or that cat, regardless of how many times you called for it, would not come out of where it was hiding/sleeping.

Animals can most certainly be difficult at times, especially when it comes to their preferred sleeping spot. A clip posted on YouTube captured a handful of pups who wouldn't let anyone stand between them and their favorite lounging spot. It didn’t matter what anyone did; they were getting to the spot one way or another. In some instances, as you’ll see, the pups would literally sit on their owners. At that point, it becomes a war of wills and about who would give up first.

As any pet owner knows, when it comes to lying around the house, sleeping and generally doing nothing, dogs will always remain undefeated. They are professionals at it and are not to be messed with. They will come out every time, and that includes their owners, and as the video also shows, even cats.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

This Golden Retriever had a hilarious reaction to its owner’s hugging. The pup made its feelings abundantly clear when the husband and wife showed each other some affection. Watch the short but hysterical clip to see the unexpected way the dog responded when its two owners shared a hug.

Animals, like people, are not the same. Each has its own unique personality, as every pet owner knows very well. Sure, some animals may look similar, but often how they respond to people, situations and environments can be as different as night and day. Anyone who says all dogs or all cats are the same is simply showing their ignorance and their inexperience with animals.

It's been said that dogs are man’s best friend, and in many cases, that has been proven again and again. How many stories have you seen or read where a dog enters a burning building to retrieve someone or something? Or what about articles about a pup who returned home years later? Those types of stories are all over the internet.

However, a clip posted on YouTube shows that one Golden Retriever has a favorite, a best friend, and it’s not the man of the household. Every time the woman hugs her husband, the dog barks loudly and wildly, even growling, clearly voicing its displeasure.  At one point, the dog goes over and attempts to physically separate the two, placing its head between them. 

Obviously, the dog is quite jealous and does not want her giving attention to anyone but it. While the dog may not mind the man of the house, the animal likely tolerates him. But it’s clear, from that short clip, that the animal prefers her, and it’s not even close.

As pet owners know, animals do seem to pick and gravitate toward one person, and this adorable Golden Retriever is no different.

Genesis 1:21 “And God created great whales, and every living creature that moves, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.”

These competitive pups turned playtime into a hysterical rivalry. What originally started as a good-natured, friendly, fun time quickly became heated, competitive and pretty hysterical. Watch the short but hilarious clip to see how this situation between these canines went from friendly to cut-throat and dog-eat-dog.

Competition is good because it brings out the best in everybody. Also, when there’s competition, everybody wins, especially the consumer. Both of those lines are extremely familiar because we’ve been fed them repeatedly, all of our lives. Most people likely don’t give them a second thought and accept them as the gospel truth, but are they true?

Every competition results in a winner and a loser. It doesn’t matter if it’s basketball, checkers, racquetball or even an election – someone, or one team, is going to win, and someone else, or another team, is going to lose. Many people tend to take things way too far, willing to do anything to win, even if it means cheating or bending the rules. Also, individuals can be poor winners and even worse losers – and all because they lost a meaningless game or match.

In a clip posted on YouTube, two dogs hilariously proved that competition does not always bring out the best in everyone. In fact, it can and very often bring about the worst in someone, causing them to act and react in ways they typically would not.

The two pups settle in to play a friendly competition. This is going to be a fun game between two pals, with the eventual winner and loser walking away amicably. They will shake hands and part ways, accepting the outcome of the competition. Sure, that sounds nice, but that is not what happens at all.

During the video game competition, things get heated quickly, with the two pups exchanging some of the most hilarious side-eyes you’ve ever seen. Both are willing to do whatever it takes to win, regardless of how it may damage or impact their friendship.

1 Corinthians 9:24 “Do you not see that in a running competition all take part, but only one gets the reward? So let your minds be fixed on the reward.”
