Baby Spider Monkey!

Her name is Estela, and she lives at the Melbourne Zoo in Australia. (And she's fuzzy!)

Mystery!

Someone's been in the trash. And it's probably a dog. But which one?

Catching Air (Nibbler)!

Air Nibbler is a Boston terrier puppy who likes to jump. And look at his eyes . . . he's full of mischief, too!

Silky Anteaters are pretty cute!

You know what makes a good pillow?

A bear!

Happy Sunday!

Squirrel and Dog Play!

At first I thought the squirrel was teasing the dog. But since the dog's tail is wagging so much, both animals are clearly having fun!

Oh, just let the puppy sleep in!

There's TWO baby elephants in the pool...

...but ONE is trying to hog the whole thing!

"What's the hold-up?"

"This duck doesn't understand this

 is a one-way log!"

"Can I please take it off now?"

"Thanks. Thanks a lot."

Snow Drama!

This is the most dramatic video we've ever posted. It's about a little girl, a sled ride, and her new camera. Now hang on for the ride of your life!

Lucy the Corgi and Wayne the Duck!

Lucy: I have a bone.
Wayne: Share!!

Can't a kitten dream?

"Any requests?"

We here at Cute! don't usually like pictures of animals dressed in outfits.

Today, we make an exception.

Baby Owls!

They're so PUFFY!

What's the big deal?

I'm just taking my polar bear cubs out for a walk.

Cats hate water!

But I guess not everyone got that news.

Niu Niu!

It sounds a little fishy, but this cat named Niu Niu apparently loves these chicks! Story here.

Hey, another one?

It looks like there's a trend of dogs refusing to take their baths!

From here.

Kitten in a Pant Leg!

They laugh now...

...but wait till the otter CATCHES him!

Red Alert!

Barack Obama is in Ireland. And it looks like the President of the United States has been enchanted by a ginger leprechaun!

Wait— NOT the puppies in onesies!

Too late.

"But I don't WANT a bath!"

This dog must be part cat!

Your Morning Cup of Cuteness!

This bunny has a story to tell. It was discovered by a Labrador named Koa (below). After the dog scared away the mother bunny, its owner adopted two of the baby bunnies. 

The baby bunnies get along great with the dog (obviously!). The plan is to release them back into nature when they’re a little older.

"This pillow is hard...but delicious!"

"Photobomb" defined!

Verb. "To drop into a photo unexpectedly by hopping into the picture right before it is taken."

Monkeys are all right!

"I'm shocked. SHOCKED!"

This newborn spiny turtle looks a bit shocked at what he sees! But cheer up, little guy. You'll get used to it!

Oh my.

"The little fool suspects nothing!"

Little Deer + Spacehopper = Fun

This little deer would like a playmate. But it will settle for a pink, inflatable hopping toy!

Armored Dachsund!

Why is this dachsund in chain mail? Well, he's either expecting an attack from a mean kitty, or he's at a Renaissance Faire!

From here.

"I hear something very disturbing!"

"You can't see me!"

Gouda the Harbor Seal pup!

Gouda is being taken care of over at the Alaska SeaLife Center.

But how the workers there get anything done is hard to understand. I'd just want to look at Gouda!

Here's a short video of her.

Two pigs on a blanket?

Okay, fine. One's not a pig! 


And the blanket sort of looks like a rug. :)

Selfish Chihuahua!

This little guy named Tommy REALLY doesn't want to share his bone . . . not even with a stuffed animal!

(Note to Tommy's owners: He doesn't like wearing that green vest.)

"Hey Mom, get ready— here it comes!"

"Yay! Now put the ball down and change my diaper."

Hey, what a cute little...

...wait, what kind of animal IS this? :)

Now THAT'S a talented balloon-man!

This girl asked the balloon-wrangler for some inflatable weaponry.

And she got a parachute, headset, and even a machine gun. (Machine guns are only cute when they're balloons!)

From here.

Japanese Dog Commercials!

"So cute!"

I've been watching Japanese ads for Doggy-Man treats that are pretty cute.

There's also funny moments in them where a human reacts to what a dog is doing.

Like this woman who sees Dalmatians at her bus stop!

"What the what?!"

And then there's this jogger guy who sees a poodle skipping rope!

No bike-riding in the airport!

"Just chillin' and hangin' with my peeps!"

"Do you mind? I'm sleeping here!"

Hey, that's not very nice!

This is one funny porcupine!

He lives at the Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center.

Saturday Nap-Time!

The puppy is BlackJack. (Dani took the photo!)

Dogs like popsicles?

Okay! (From here.)

Puppy Overload!

Now THAT'S a lot of Dalmatian puppies!

Curious!

Hey!

It looks like my blog postings from yesterday are gone.

Rats. Are they in the dryer?

Underwater Oinkers?

Did you know that pigs in the Bahamas hang out at the beach and like to swim? No? Then check out these photos from the Telegraph!

"So cozy!"

"Can you breathe?"

"Yeah. Just barely."

Baby sea lion? Your turtle-ride is here.

Retrieve those bunnies!

From the Animal Blog!

Today's "kitten in a shoe" photo!

From here.

"Hello!" "Hello!" "Hello!"

All together: "HELLO!"

Robot Newborns? (or "Pneuborns!)

Yes, he's helping the
robot baby to walk!

When I started this blog, I didn't ever think I'd be showing baby robots on it.

Oh well!

In Japan, a group of scientists have been working on small robots that use "pneumatics" (compressed air) to move around.

"Take me to your mommy."

So they're calling the robots Pneuborns! You can read more here.

Seal Homecoming!

This Northern Fur Seal was found starving and rescued in British Columbia. A group called the  Island Wildlife Natural Care Centre on Salt Spring Island got the seal back to health. And here, it's released back to the sea . . . and the seal seems pretty happy about it! 

Maybe some day he'll come back to visit!

Bulldog Bunny

I'm not usually a big fan of dressing up animals. But for THIS, I make an exception!
