1. This woman looks to be in a pretty deep sleep, so her prairie dog figured she wouldn’t notice if he swooped in during her R.E.M. cycle. Of course, that meant her boyfriend was going to have to settle for the couch.

6. Cats have scent glands on their paws, and they will mark their territory by scratching things. This way, when they leave, other cats will know it’s theirs. Well, this cat’s basically telling this man’s partner, “The boy is mine!”

8. This woman’s boyfriend just learned a hard lesson. Sure, that might be his regular spot when they cuddle with tea and movies, but he forgot the cardinal rule of Couch Club: don’t get up to use the bathroom, unless you want to lose your seat.
