Hug Your Hippo

When your squeaky toy won’t squeak
When you’ve been stuck inside all week
When the big dog barks and growls
To interrupt your nightly prowls
Your food is bland, your kibble stale
The baby always pulls your tail
Whenever life gets harsh and rough
Just hug your hippo; that’s enough

What would I do without you?

From Imgur: “I rescued Stanley and his hippo today. The shelter said they were a package deal.”

Buddy and the Babies

Imagine you’re a kitten. Eyes just open, legs still wobbly, and your babysitter for the afternoon is a soft warm golden retriever. Well, naturally you’re going to snuggle him.

Three small kittens lie on a rug next to a large golden retriever dog.
