Whoever has never had a pet will call us all crazy, but trust me, animals very often underestimate their proportions and it results in some serious traps. Previously, here at Bored Panda, we covered this phenomenon in a collection of pics of stuck animals whose eyes were bigger than their belly and their belly was bigger than their bowl.
This time, we are taking a look at pets getting stuck in the most unusual places, like top kitchen counters, sofa cracks, window spaces, garbage bins… you name it!
Both cute and adorably funny, the pics show that nothing is impossible to your furry friend, even the most absurd ideas. Like chewing a hole through a towel and sticking your head in it. While some doggo thought it was the most exciting endeavor, their owner was probably not so eager to see the result. So scroll down and upvote your favorite pics!

Although scrolling through pictures of animals getting stuck in weird places is really entertaining, we have to remember that for your furry friend, it may not be as funny. It turns out that two to three pets in the U.S. die every week from suffocation, and most pet owners aren't even aware of the risk. Of course, not every place or the item is dangerous to an animal, per se. A dog standing on top of the kitchen counter or a kitty stuck in the sofa crease will probably not do any harm, but getting stuck in some particular things can be really dangerous.

One such dangerous object is any kind of disregarded plastic packaging. Think of bread bags, snack bags, sandwich bags or cereal bags. Dogs and cats are naturally interested into any bag that once contained or still contains some food, so they'll stick their heads in to see what’s waiting there. That’s how the seemingly innocent unattended bags can lead to a tragedy—suffocation.
According to veterinarian Dr. Jeff Werber, when the animals smell a bag of chips, “they pick up the smell and they wanna go in. The more they breathe, it sucks in. And moisture kind of sticks to the inside. And before you know it, it's a vacuum."

In order to make sure your pet is safe at home, you may want to empty any food packaged in bags, such as snacks and cereal, into sealed containers like Tupperware. Most importantly, before throwing away any type of bag, whether it’s a chip bag or cereal bag, snip it. Snip it down the side and across the bottom so the bag becomes completely open and flat.
If you find your pet in a situation where he’s suffocating, you must act immediately. Quickly determine if his head’s stuck in a bag, jar or can. Either cut the object off quickly, or in the case of a jar, you may want to try lubricating it. If the pet loses consciousness, it may be time to start CPR and head to the vet.

Another particularly dangerous object your cat can get stuck in is tilt-and-turn windows. Cats can try to climb outside using a tilting window. In many cases, they lose grip because of the smooth frame and fall into the gap of the tilted window. This can have dramatic consequences. When your cat gets stuck, this can lead to suffocation or damage to the spinal cord.
In such cases, cats will start to resist in an attempt to free themselves. However, this does not work and can only increase the harm done. The best solution is to prevent the cat from getting stuck in the narrowest part of the window or to completely prevent a cat from climbing out of the window.

We had a hamster called Quentin Fluffy Bum. He unfortunately died after escaping his cage, building a nest under the dishwasher and was electrocuted. Very sad. 🐹😢💔⚰️💀⚡
Load More Replies...Someone needs to go on a diet, or spend a lot of time running about in a hamster ball or wheel.
Remember having my MIL watch over our hamster during vacation. She fed the animal half an apple a day (while we had clearly mentioned a 'dice' of apple max). He could hardly get into his tubes, and couldn't turn around anymore.
Wow. I'm surprised that my hamster doesn't get stuck(he's large for a hamster)
Why the hell did you give me a food dis with a hole in it - you think ahead I can't!
Just a guess here, but I think this little fluff ball needs a more restrictive diet, lol.
I had a fat hamster as a child. Probably all those honey drops I used to give him. He lived way beyond life expectancy too at the ripe old age of 8. And he only died because one of our cats got into my bedroom, knocked down the cage and killed him. Grim.
When are they going to make a food dish for the husky rodents?

These are hard to look at because most of the animals look either terrified or confused or both.
Some of this animals are in distress and panic.. not that funny then
on the other hand, you gotta admire the animals that just look like they're chillin' there

Perhaps some were staged, however, they could repeat what actually happened in the past, with my two cats, I often miss good shots, they see the camera, and gone, I am impressed with phone shots, but I do not have one, as yet, I have not mastered the video on my camera, I need to work on it, there have been some video ones I have missed, it was easier when I had dogs, we must cherish our precious moments, great post, thanks !!!
I really enjoyed those & I'm sure, for the most part, none were hurt!!!
Sorry, normally love your site, but to me this is the worst collection of obviously sufferring you've shared sofar. Alledged 'humor' truely in the very worst of taste..
Most of these problems are due to animals interacting with things mankind created...
hilarious. but i felt bad for them. especially the poor trash pandas stuck in the vents and the one stuck in a tree honestly, how do they do it
