If you’re having a stressful day or week or whatever, this otter calm you down. Otters Kotaro and Hana stretch out and get a good combing from their human. It’s about the only thing these two wiggle worms will sit still for. (via Alice Shortcake)

How Do You Brush a 900-Pound Bear?
Very carefully. Especially if the bear is a frisky fella who would rather roughhouse than sit still for a grooming. “All his life Leo was an amazing wrestler,” says the staff of the Orphaned Wildlife Center in New York state where Leo lives. “Leo would love to wrestle with (his caregiver) Jim like that but obviously Jim is no match for 900-pound Leo.” (via Murray C.)

Maru’s Mental Hygiene
Behold the humble toothbrush. Guardian of gums. Preventer of plaque. Licker of cats? In today’s experiment, Maru and Hana experience being combed with a toothbrush to determine if it feels just like a tongue bath. The verdict? Maru finds it mellowing, while frisky Hana prefers to bat it around. Conclusion? That toothbrush is definitely not returning to the bathroom.
