48 Funny Owl Moments During Vet Checkups Where They Had To Be Wrapped In Towels Like Burritos
Owls are known for their intense stares and mysterious vibes but wrap them in a towel, and they instantly transform into the most adorable burritos you’ve ever seen.
An Instagram page called “Owls in Towels” shares these delightful moments when owls are snugly wrapped for practical reasons. Why, you might ask? Well, it’s actually part of their medical care. Many of the owls featured were brought in after accidents and needed treatment. To keep them calm and safe during exams, they’re gently swaddled in towels.
While the purpose is entirely practical, the result is unintentionally hilarious and unbearably cute.
Whether you’re a bird lover or just in need of a serotonin boost, this collection is pure joy. Honestly, we didn’t know we needed owls in towels in our lives... until now.

Even knowing they have sharp beaks and sharper claws and are meat-eating raptors, I still want to snuggle with one.
They all look so soft and (most of them) pettable. Good thing I only see them in photos, not in the exam room.
These were wonderful! A huge thank you to those who take care of injured wild life. What an important calling.
Thank you for this thread. Very few people will ever be able to see an owl this close up. Gorgeous. Now I have to learn more about the functions of their beaks. I hope they all get back to flying and preying again.
Fun fact: you can figure out which owls are diurnal, nocturnal, or crepuscular based off their eye color!
