Yes, it’s true: the internet is full of cute pics.
But it isn’t all carefully staged or perfectly composed pics that bring the cuteness. These pics may be unexpected, random or just plain weird — but there’s no denying that they’re totally cute.
1. When you want that sunny patch but you’re also a wuss.
This doggo is afraid of the cat but he really, really wants some of that sweet, sunny real estate. I guess this improvised solution is working out for him.
2. Seeing something you shouldn’t see.
Look, if you saw this epic meeting of the minds on your very own kitchen table, it would be hard to know just how to react. It’s a jaw-dropping scene, and this kitty’s blepface is totally understandable.
3. Huh. Pigs love anime.
Anime isn’t for me — the stories are too pseudo-deep and the animation is too jerky — but I’d be willing to make an exception if I had a pet who clearly loved Neon Samurai Bebop Evangelion or whatever.
4. It’s never a bad time to stretch.
At the end of a long day, there’s nothing like lounging on the couch and stretching it out. So what if you look a little derpy? You’ve totally earned the right to relax.
5. Oh hey.
This lion has such a friendly expression that it’s easy to forget the fact that other big cats have been known to jump out of trees and straight-up murder people.
6. Yep, apparently cows sit like dogs.
…and there’s an entire subreddit dedicated to it. I guess it’s an in-between position: more relaxing than standing up, and better sightlines than lying down.
7. When you see your twin.
The best thing about birds is observing just how clever they are and how quick their mental processes are. I don’t know what this bird is thinking, but you can see the gears turning in its head.
8. Beautiful day for a blepper.
What’s with cats doing this? Every cat I’ve ever known will periodically stick its tongue out and briefly look like the cutest dummy ever. Are their tongues faulty? I need answers.
9. This is why I don’t trust hairy fruit.
Sure, you may think it’s a kiwi, but this pic proves that it may be an adorable kitten. I just don’t want to take that chance when I bite into it.
10. Don’t ask me for context here.
The title promised pics that are weirdly cute, not explanations for said pics. The only thing I’m sure of is that this guy loves cigars, swords, and his beloved pupper.
11. Someone just hit the motherlode.
Considering how raccoons will go nuts for any spilled trash bin or open dumpster, hitching a ride on the garbage truck must make this guy feel like he’s en route to Valhalla.
12. The optimal dinner position.
This dog has a lap to sit on and the best possible line of sight for dinner. Yes, it might look totally goofy, but don’t knock it ’til you try it.
13. After an all-nighter comes the morning crash.
We’ve all been there: deadlines are looming and the only way to catch up is to forego sleep and just go for it.
14. This is my life now.
I’m not sure if this dog doesn’t realize it isn’t stuck and is free to leave its narrow prison. That, or it just really loves playing doggy Tetris.
15. It’s nice to have an attentive gaming buddy.
It’s super helpful when there’s someone there to watch your back and encourage you as you embark on your gaming adventures. Well done, snek.
16. What breed is this?
