Beware, For These 44 Adorable Pet Pics Are Here To Melt Your Heart Right Away
Just as the ancients believed the Earth stood on three whales, the Internet—literally from the early years of its existence—rests on three pillars, one of which is photos of cute cats and dogs. Even in the distant '90s, when the technical possibility of uploading photos to the Internet only appeared, people never tired of admiring photos of our pets.
That's why today's selection is just another tribute to the worship of cute pets, where, probably every person, whether they love animals or not, will find a photo that puts them in 'Aww' mode. However, enough words—perhaps you didn't come here for those!

Aaaw, bunny looks like my first bunny "Moppel". Moppel, I miss you and your little shenanigans. He was quite a character. Slept in my bed and chased our cats.

To get the eyes that dilated, I wonder if they put the cats in the dark and then turned on the lights fast while taking the photo with a flash. I would say one take is a*****e, but I'm really tired of seeing people put animals in awkward or harmful situations so they can get a bunch of likes of social media.
Our selection today is based on the Instagram page @dadapropro, which dedicates its postings to the cutest pets ever, and as of today has 128K followers of its almost 600 photos. The author of the account specifically stipulates that the animals are not theirs, and the main goal of the page is simply the pure and noble art of observing pets.

People love to depict animals—literally since ancient times. For example, some of the oldest and most outstanding works of prehistoric art, in the Altamira cave in northern Spain, date back to 20 thousand years ago. Now guess which images dominate the cave paintings on the walls of Altamira? That's right, animals!
Some folks joke that the deer, bison, and mammoths depicted on the walls there are just a prototype of the later human tradition of posting photos of their food on Instagram, but we're pretty sure that people simply liked to look at beautiful images of animals. Moreover, ancient artists even used the curves of the wall relief to create a 3D effect!

Even though the art of the ancient Greek and Roman period was more devoted to the theme of depicting the human body, and in the Middle Ages people mainly painted biblical scenes, outside of Medieval Europe you can find many examples of beautiful pictures of animals. A classic example would be Chinese and Japanese painting.
Fish and octopuses, lions and tigers, mythical animals and, of course, kitties—this is just an incomplete list of animals that can be seen in ancient drawings of China and Japan. Ah, and the pandas, of course! So the vector of development of the world art and observation of the beauty of animals simply shifted geographically over the course of human history.

Portrait of Purrian Gray. Both the portrait and the cat just stay gorgeous.
Finally, with the advent of the Internet, people found the opportunity to completely devote the best hours of their lives to looking at cute cats and dogs, without being distracted by such less important tasks as work, friends, and others.
But seriously, in these difficult times, when there is too much stress around, cute photos of pets simply give us a small but regular charge of dopamine to make our lives at least a bit better.

Someone has provoked the wrath of a particularly fuzzy god.
So, what else is left for us in this selection? Probably just to scroll all the photos here to the very end, like the ones you enjoy the most—and maybe add pictures of your own incredible pets in the comments below. Who knows, maybe they'll be even cuter and more beautiful than the ones we've collected for this selection!

I read on a British website that Munchkins don't have issues with their short leg mutation. I can try to find it, but by the time I do, I’ll have lost this page. Ok, here’s one that mentions many other breeds and suggest its uncommon enough to warrant publishing individual case studies. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22311892/

Ball is an old English surname. There we're members of the Ball family , who were early American colonial settlers.

Yes, it's really cute when my brain is probably too big for my skull and that's why my eyes pop out. But the most important thing is that I fit in my mum's handbag and don't have to walk with my eternal headache.

You’re absolutely correct! Another example of a terrible deformity created on purpose to satisfy people’s ideas of cute. A lifetime of suffering. People should be ashamed!

Please stop showing us deliberately bred deformed cats. They shouldn't have to suffer through lifetimes and generations of stunted legs just for humans to enjoy cute snapshots.

Why do humans think it's ok to force something onto an animals head, just to get a laugh? But I guess anyone who thinks it's ok to breed animals to have to suffer any form of stunted growth is a moron.....I answered my own question.

There’s gotta be a cat who has a passing resemblance to what’s her name? Caroline Leavett. Who else has noticed that, while lying about Trump, all his female press secretaries wear very obvious cross necklaces? I thought there’s a commandment about bearing false witness. I guess it slips their mind. Edit for clarity.

I think if we've descended to showing cruelty as if it's cute then it's time BP called it a day.

I'm with you on the irresponsible breeding, but not on calling something like this cruelty. This is probably a well-cared for, enriched, healthy cat, even if he's mildly annoyed at this hold from his human.

That has got to be a filter or photoshop or something. I can't imagine any cat sitting calmly if false eyelashes or mascara were actually placed on their upper eyelids.

This kitty will never get to race around and jump up on things like other cats. And if it ever gets outside, it will be prey for dogs and coyotes as well as other animals. I can't believe I used to think they were 'cute'.

Panda Cat 6 months ago
I’ve posted a few articles here on the reality of munchkin cats and whether or not they are deformed. I suggest the video on the genetics of munchkins with an explanation of how the homozygous dominant gene for the short legs presumably works and prevents the development of kittens with two copies of that gene. I found several articles on which gene is affected, which may indicate adverse effects in humans with that fully functioning gene. I don’t have time to get into all of the reading and interpretation at the moment, and I am clueless about the expression or non-expression of that gene in humans, so I don’t promise I will be able to include that information here or anywhere else.

Aside from short-legged cats, stop fattening your cats and calling them "chonkers" just because they look cute. It's disgusting and they will suffer for it.

Oleg, it was a nice idea, but a big NO on the short legged breeds. The practice of breeding IN a mutation is shameful, and we don't want BP to appear to be promoting that.

Better stop reading about all those Colorpoint cats, cats with long silky fur, cats with blue eyes, cats with tufts on the tip of their ears, cats with curly hair, Manx cats from the Isle of Mann. If you want to get into the topic of “breeding in mutations“ you probably shouldn’t look at dogs, sheep, cattle, and any domesticated breeds. Heck, Ignore plants. Here’s a simple example: I purchased a green perilla plant and had lovely volunteers for years, but they were all red. I guess the green ones are preferred over the red, but I doubt there was anything scary happening in the green leaves as a result of selective breeding.
