This Comic Series Imagines Humans As The Family Pet, And It’s Weirdly Cute (45 New Pics)

Imagine being scooped up by an alien family and instantly treated like a household pet. That’s the wonderfully weird (and weirdly relatable) premise of “Me, The Family Pet?” by artist Jejo S. In this comic universe, humans aren’t the ones adopting cute companions; the aliens are. And when a human girl named Sally ends up with a sweet but slightly clueless alien family called the Gwanians, everyday life turns into a steady stream of affection, confusion, and “what is she doing now?” moments.

We’ve featured Jejo’s comics on Bored Panda before, and the charm hasn’t worn off. The series still nails that cozy-chaotic balance: part sci-fi, part slice-of-life, and full of little reminders that humans are… kind of strange when viewed from the outside.

Now scroll down and enjoy Sally’s latest adventures, and don’t be surprised if you start looking at your own pet and wondering what they think you’re doing.

Rex to the rescue

If you’ve been following along, you’ll also know the story has started to lean into bigger stakes. In the most recent Bored Panda post yesterday, Sally made a huge decision and headed back to Earth after learning she might have family looking for her. That shift didn’t wrap up in a neat little bow, and that’s where this update comes in.

This post picks up with the last few comics from Season 2, closing out that arc, and then jumps into the early part of Season 3, where Sally’s world keeps expanding and the “humans as pets” idea keeps getting tested in new (and hilarious) ways.

If you’re new here, don’t worry, it’s easy to catch on: the Gwanians adore Sally, Sally does very human things, and everyone involved is doing their best. And yes, we’ll be back with more posts covering the rest of Season 3 soon.

They can understand each other?

I am a Brazilian digital artist who loves transforming imagination into hyper-real visuals. I work with artificial intelligence and image editing to create what I always wondered as a child: how would our favorite characters look in real life? Over time, many of my artworks have gone viral and were featured in international publications. I have recreated realistic versions of cartoon characters such as Disney and The Simpsons, imagined how celebrities who died young would look today, and even gave modern faces to historical figures like Mona Lisa or Shakespeare. Beyond entertainment, I created Para Não Esquecer, a social project that revisits memorable criminal cases in Brazil. My goal is to honor victims, keep memory alive and remind society that justice and empathy matter. I also write for Bored Panda, where I create articles featuring artists, photographers, rescue stories and feel-good moments from around the world. My work aims to highlight creativity, kindness and emotional storytelling. In everything I do, my purpose is the same: to touch hearts, evoke emotion and make people feel something real.
