I’m not sure how into This American Life you guys are (like if you’re only pretty into it or if you’re very into it), but this week’s episode is called “In Dog We Trust” and it’s actually from, like, a million years ago in the year 2000 which is ridiculous, think about how much life we all had left to live in the year 2000, but it’s about people’s relationships with their pets so I thought I’d just get the word out to all you ANIMAL LOVERS out there. You can listen to it after you watch all these animal videos! And totally give up on doing anything productive this afternoon! And plus it’s STILL rainy outside, and who can even think about doing anything productive when it’s raining outside? So, please, enjoy all of these videos of cats and various other animals and then listen to the animal episode of This American Life and wonder what you were doing when it was originally aired in the year 2000. (Trying to figure out if you liked Eve 6′s Horrorscope as much as you liked their self-titled first album, probably?)

Yay Baby Orangutan! You’re really learning how to live and it is ADORABLE! It’s maybe a little unfair that baby orangutan videos will probably always be in the top five here, but maybe all the other animals should just GET BETTER? Maybe that! The second video with the puppies fighting in costumes is great just because it really went above and beyond. Lots of elements there. Really has its own voice. The surprised cat is mostly great just because it is three seconds long and that is a GREAT length for a video that should really just be a photograph. Love you, weird cat! French bulldogs do the twist is the feel-good video of the summer and baby pygmy hippo just kills it. Really, really great job to that hippo. So congratulations to everyone and, as always, congratulations to US.

I listened to the TAL episode yesterday at work. It reminded me of why I don’t usually do that, because it got really dusty in my cubicle. Bad idea. I love pets.
I love that tiny hippo.
Petting Zoo, I previously shared my love of Rabbit Show Jumping. My next contribution to your comments is Duck Fashion Show.

YES!
I can’t decide whether or not PETA would be upset about this.
They’re upset.
Oh yeah, definitely.
Horrorscope is a great album!
Last night I hoped there would be an otter video! Get out of my head, Kelly!
Actually, you can stay, because it leads to videos of animals that I love.
I couldn’t watch the cross-eyed cat! Help! Hitting play just kept refreshing this page.
I had the same problem. I just went to youtube instead. Honestly, it’s not worth the effort: just enjoy the still.
Cat Tetherball is my #1.
You guys I think we all need to talk about what really just happened here, which is that we all just got Rickrolled by a Whitney Houston song when we were innocently promised Dachshund And Pug Fighting In Bee And Dinosaur Costumes. There are not enough black metal songs in the world to erase this.
Watching the #2, my room mate asked “I wonder how many boyfriends have left her?”
Legitimate question.
Once again, cute cat videos made by Russians, who I thought were super-manly and emotionally null. This is really making me question my stereotyped, uninformed view of the country, you guys.
