A Rescued Puppy Completely Forgets How To Dog When She Goes To Drink Water


When rescuers from the Mia Foundation discovered Gertie, she was abandoned in a dumpster at only one day old. What’s more, she was born with a cleft palate. But that doesn’t slow her down…if anything it makes the cutie even more adorable.


Just watch how she drinks water!

If that’s not the cutest thing you’ve ever seen, I’m at a loss for what to show you.



When These Cats Dive Off Of An Icy Pier, They're So Confused By What They Find


If you really want to see a cat’s eyes light up, just give them a good whiff of some fresh fish. Their little brain goes nuts for the seafood delight.


Unfortunately for this feline duo, they can’t quite get their paws on the fish they found under frozen water. Not for lack of (adorable) trying, of course. Alas, their silly attempts are no match for the water’s protective shield of ice.




“Follow me, dude, I see lunch!”






“Be careful, you don’t want to spook it.”






“Gotcha!”















“Wait, why don’t I gotcha?”






“Why isn’t this working???”






“Hey, this is harder than it looks!”






“Ugh, whatever, I wasn’t that hungry anyway.”





Sorry, fuzzballs. Maybe you’ll have better luck just raiding the grocery store tuna. But you totally get an A for effort.



See An Entire Galaxy In The Tiniest Places With These Incredible Macro Photos


In this hectic world, it’s easy to forget the smaller things. Those tiny, little things that surround you all the time seem insignificant when you have bills, deadlines, alarm clocks, and events to attend. But sometimes, taking a moment to appreciate these overlooked phenomena can make life seem so much richer.


That’s the philosophy behind the work of Finnish photographer Joni Niemelä, who captures what appear to be entire, vast galaxies in the tiniest places.




Niemelä photographs dew and raindrops on fireweed plants. That might not sound like much, but with a macro lens, they become startlingly beautiful.






Though they’re just droplets of water, through his lens, they become ethereal worlds.






He composes his shots carefully, making the droplets look like they’re suspended in space.






“Though I like to capture moments from various things in nature, my favorite subjects are macro [scenes] and those little details that usually [go] unnoticed,” Niemelä says.






For Niemelä, the ultimate goal of the series is to evoke feelings of size and space.






“I try to transfer all those moments and ambiances to the viewer as best as I can,” he says.






“I often like also to experiment with post-processing and bring out my artistic view even more this way.”

You'll Have To Watch This Over And Over Again To Figure Out The Illusion


If this magician was out to baffle the Internet, he has officially succeeded. What starts out as a normal glass of water quickly turns into something puzzling, because what happens after he’s done pouring it is insane.


Half the fun of magic is just letting yourself believe in it, but I can’t help but wonder how I could recreate this illusion. Can you figure out his secret?

Okay, none of us can figure out how he pulled this off. If you know how he did it, please put us out of our misery and tell us in the comments. Until then, I’ll be watching this video on repeat.



Tourists Were Just Enjoying Their Time On The Water When Something Insane Happened


Wave runners are summertime staples for anyone who lives or vacations near the water. They’re fun, you can rent them almost anywhere, and as long as you have a driver’s license, they’re pretty easy to operate.


But because they’re so easy to ride around, people often find themselves feeling courageous. When that happens, things can get bad quickly. That’s exactly what these people learned on a recent vacation.

Now that was a close call. Had it not been for the quick reaction of the other driver, this would have ended tragically. There’s nothing wrong with seeking a few thrills, but safety should always come first!



When Puppy Wants To Play With The Hose, Mommy Makes Sure There's No Mess


It’s hot out, and the only thing that this tiny puppy wants is a drink of water. After an afternoon of running and playing with his brothers and sisters, he’s all tuckered out.


But when he can’t find a bowl, he has to ask mom for help. What she does next is so adorable.





Nothing like a little teamwork, am I right? Hopefully the pup paid mom back with lots of snuggles!



This Dog Has No Respect For Your Rules, Beach!


No one likes to be told how to have fun, and this dog is no different. All he wanted to do was play in the sun with his humans, but he couldn’t help but be bothered by one sign that was really putting a damper on his day.


That’s when he decided to take matters into his own paws.





We’re pretty sure that’s not a long-term solution, but for now, this pup is a seaside hero.



No Matter How Hard He Tries, This Kitten Can't Figure Out How To Drink Water


Ben the kitten has an adorable problem. At three weeks old, he still can’t figure out how to drink from a bowl. No matter how thirsty he gets, or how many times he tries, he seems to be missing the mark. Watch the adorable little fur ball try and fail to drink water from a bowl, in what might be the cutest attempt by any animal ever!





Ben will eventually get the hang of this, and then he’ll have all the water he wants. Until then, keep being cute, little Ben!

We humans aren’t the only ones trying to beat the heat now that summer is officially in full swing.


Keeping our fluffy (or feathery!) animal friends comfortable as the temperature climbs higher and higher can be a daunting task, especially when you see your energy bill after just a few weeks of cranking the A/C. But the simplest solution is also one of the cutest: grab a kiddie pool and let your little friends go to town!


And if you’ve got a full pool of your own, don’t be surprised to find some guests taking advantage of the welcoming waters…




1. Just a couple a bros keeping cool.







2. “Belly flop? Don’t mind if I do!”







3. “You even got our favorite color!”







4. “Okay little human, you were right. This isn’t so bad…”







5. “This custom personal pool was worth every penny.”







6. “You can have a turn on the floaty later…or never.”







7. “Now I can finally do my water Jazzercise routine.”







8. Even the other pup is in awe of this majesty.







9. “Okay, I’m ready to go down the slide again.”







10. “Best. Day. Ever.”







11. This doxie has all the moxie.







12. “This is good. This is everything.”







13. “Please don’t tell the other cats how much I like this.”







14. I just wish we could see his little legs paddling!







15. “Okay, kids, but just ten more minutes.”







16. “Can I get a refill?”







17. “Just wait ’til they see this splash…”







18. “I don’t think I really felt joy until this moment.”







19. “Watch me do a backflip off his shoulder.” “No way!”







20. Meet the chillest llama in the world:







21. “Hurry up with the sunscreen, man!”







22. “I can’t wait to pee in this!”







23. “I love you. Oh sorry, not you, I was talking to the water.”







24. Tennis ball + kiddie pool = heaven







25. “Come on, slowpoke!”







26. “Where is that waitress with my mojito?”







27. “Hey, there’s room for both of us!”







28. “I’m so happy, I might not even pee in the house today!”







29. You don’t need a huge pool to make a big splash.







30. Improvising works just as well as the real thing!







31. “Mom! Mom! Did you see that splash? Mom!”







32. “Come on in, it feels great!”







33. “This is even better than last year’s!”







34. “I totally found it first.” “Shut up, we found it at the same time!”







35. And of course, no pool party would be complete without a dear friend stopping by…






I feel like I just took a few refreshing laps around the pool myself. Thank goodness these cuties will have no trouble keeping cool!
