The world is full of kind and caring people, as well as adorable pets, not just scary world events. But it’s something that we all need to consistently be reminded of because our brains tend to latch on to negativity more than positivity.

To that end, we’ve compiled a list of the most heartwarming memes you’ll ever find on the internet, as shared on the aptly named ‘Wholesome Memes’ Facebook group. Continue scrolling for a good dose of soul-healing content and cuddly animal pics that might just make you go ‘aww!’

Meanwhile, read on for Bored Panda’s interview with one of the administrators of the ‘Wholesome Memes’ group.

    My favorite Danny Trejo story is that he’s been in so many movies, often just bit parts he films in a day, that he can’t remember them all. So he’ll be sitting on the sofa with his wife, watching a movie, and then realize, “Hey, I’m in this one!”

    Wow, that must have been a wonderful experience. I’m so sad that I didn’t get to meet Terry Pratchett at the Edinburgh book fair when I was younger. I would have loved to have met him and said how much his books mean to me. I’m actually reading the Hogfather now.

    Bored Panda was curious about the inspiration behind the popular Facebook group, why so many memes feature animals, as well as how to craft the perfect viral meme.

    One of the administrators ensuring that the entire group runs smoothly, Hamza Saeed, was kind enough to answer all of our questions.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    According to Saeed, the ‘Wholesome Memes’ group was inspired by one simple goal: “To create a positive and uplifting space on social media.”

    The admin told Bored Panda that the goal of the team was to “counter the negativity” that’s often found on the internet and social media.

    No, to hell with “we”. The people who disrespect teachers and vote to underpay them are the same people who look down on young mothers and vote to give them as little support as possible. This story is one person in hardship supporting another person in hardship, and we do far more good for the world when we strive to be like him than when we say that the actions of the worst of humanity mean that no one deserves kindness like that.

    Teachers that allow parents to bring their non-disruptive kids are awesome. I’ve only seen this abused once during night school when a kid kept being disruptive and the parent kept trying to discipline them in front of the class.

    They did this by fostering a community that focuses on feel-good and heartwarming content.

    A very large number of the memes shared on the Facebook group involve animals and people’s pets. We were interested to get the administrator’s thoughts on why these sorts of memes do so well on social media.

    Saeed explained to us that, in his opinion, animal memes resonate with so many people because they bring people joy and evoke universal emotions in many of us.

    “Animals are relatable,” he said that this is how they connect with the audience. According to him, images of animals acting innocent are perfect for heartwarming memes and humor.

    We befriended a stray ( in my profile pic) feeding her for 2 months, then hurricane ida hit our area(PA) we didn’t see her for 2days, our hearts were broken and we feared the worst, my husband took it harder as he grew really closed to her, as I went out to the lil yard to start and clean up and take down her lil area, as I turned around she was sitting right there staring at me, called my husband out, with tears in his eyes, can you do anything/everything possible to bring her in sooner, about 2 weeks of her being inside I had a dream of a man telling me that “this is no ordinary cat”, then a week after that my husband got a dream of his closest cousin ( she was murdered due to domestic violence) she told him in the dream “ do you like the cat”, til this day we can’t explain where the cat came from, we see strays on our block here and there, then she just sat there across the street staring at the house ( she was also with another cat(same color) gray)she brings so much joy 🥹

    Years ago I rescued a pregnant cat off the street. Unfortunately I don't have "before-and-after" photos of her. When I first saw her she was rather scruffy, because she was a long-hair, and thus I named her Ragamuffin.

    Hopefully the basket doesn't fry away. I'll see myself out.

    Finally, Saeed shared his thoughts with us about what content creators can do to make their memes stand out from the crowd.

    In the ‘Wholesome Memes’ administrator’s opinion, internet users ought to focus on two things: being authentic and original.

    It’s through these genuine emotions that these silly and wholesome images can connect with us even stronger. If you can match up this sense of realness with a unique twist or perspective—even better!

    Aside from that, Saeed urges content creators to keep up to date with current internet trends and take the time to engage with the community. 

    Being kind and helping others is something that human beings are hard-wired for. We rely on our social circles to survive and thrive. As such, our brains reward us when we do good deeds for other people.

    This is a phenomenon that’s aptly called the “helper’s high.” Not only is it nice to be nice, but our brains reinforce this sort of behavior by firing up our pleasure centers.

    Aside from boosting our moods, kindness is also what deepens our relationships and connections with other folks. This happens on a biochemical level (with the release of oxytocin, the so-called love hormone), as well as a social one. We’re more likely to reciprocate with kindness and do good deeds in our social circles when someone’s helped us out.

    But it’s not just others that we have to remember to take care of. We also need to carve out the time and put in the effort to be kind to ourselves.

    It’s difficult to save the world (or at least your local neighborhood) if you’re constantly exhausted, extremely self-critical, burned out beyond belief, and chronically anxious. Self-care is a priority, no matter how big of an altruist you are.

    My husband and I had a secret stash of M&Ms for movie watching after kids were asleep. One day when I was ill, my boy with the sweetest heart came to me and said, "Momma, I know you really like tea when you don't feel good but I tried to go make you some tea but there was only M&Ms in there"! Darn, sweetest thing one of my kids could ever do, but now when need to find a new hiding place for the M&Ms!

    I was ill last week. And my 3 kids took turns taking care of me. They would " hand over their patient" to whoever was free when they had to take a class or go outside to play. Needless to say their patient recovered quickly.

    Oftentimes, our very worst enemies are ourselves. As CNN notes, our brains have developed in such a way that they focus more on negative experiences than positive ones.

    This used to help our ancestors survive because they’d hone in on potential threats. However, in this day and age, the sources of stress have changed for many people. Instead of worrying about potentially dangerous animals, we’re anxious about work, which can lead to a lot of baseless self-criticism if it gets out of hand. Luckily, this habit is something you can change, with practice.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Dr. Catherine Franssen, a psychology expert at Longwood University in Virginia, explained to CNN that it takes roughly 2 months to “train your brain” to let go of the habit of negative self-talk. Meditation can help with this. As can going for a walk outside in nature and cognitive behavioral therapy, if your self-criticism is impacting your daily life very much.

    Even when I was young and eager to party I would eventually get sick and tired of sloppy drunk humans and end up with the host’s pets anyway. I don’t drink a lot, partly because of how sick I get nd partly because I don’t like feeling that out of control. Plus, I usually drove myself there, and didn’t want to risk getting pulled over. So I would switch to soda early on and just socialize with the non-human animals.

    Even in the toughest of times, or rather especially when things get tough, you can see the best (and worst) of humanity. On top of that, even the smallest gestures of kindness can have a big impact. Some of the memes shared by members of the community tap into these ideas.

    Meanwhile, other images that get shared on ‘Wholesome Memes’ focus on showing how cute and adorable our animal friends can be! There’s a bit of everything for everyone.

    Actually, this is a major reason some therapists recommend pets to patients who don't have a good support system. If you are feeling sad, in the absence of a partner or family to support you, hugging a pet can distract you from using a selfdestructive means of self-soothing.

I was at my friends place a couple days later, her dog usually stays away from me, but that day she couldnt stop comforting me, this chihuahua forced her love on me by sitting on my lap and press her little self against me.

    Every larger public Facebook group has rules that all members have to abide by. And ‘Wholesome Memes’ is no different. If there were no guidelines or consequences, then anybody could post or write anything they wanted and chaos would reign.

    Having at least some rules keeps everyone focused on a single message (in this case, wholesome, heartwarming, and adorable memes!) and ensures that the community members can have a good time.

    I had a patient who said his kids just couldn't stay overnight at his place anymore because his cat was the most incredibly annoying cat they had ever been around. He apologized but couldn't understand why they were like that towards his cat, he'd had the kitty for years and his cat was a loving and loyal kitty. Well, one day the time came when his doctor told him for his health and safety it was time to break down his pride and admit he would benefit from hearing aids. The day he finally received his final fit and had the computerized hearing aids tuned to his specific hearing needs, he arrived home, of course, greeted by his loving cat. Less than an hour later, he called his children and apologized for all the stress and drama that had gone on for years. He apologized for not believing them, because now that he could actually HEAR his cat, he admitted his cat WAS annoying, in the hour he had been home the cat never stopped meowing. He had just NEVER been able to HEAR THE CAT!!

    The team managing the group asks everyone to be kind, polite, positive, and respectful of one another. “If you don’t have anything positive to say, keep your fingers off the keyboard,” they say, adding that everyone should avoid creating “unnecessary drama.” A dash of drama is nearly unavoidable in any bigger community (there’s always friction between people), but the important thing is that the admins have things under control.

    On top of being a decent human being, the ‘Wholesome memes’ community wants its members to avoid spamming the group with ads, misinformation, and posts about fundraising. The group also takes people’s privacy very seriously. They prohibit Facebook users from directly messaging each other, unless they’ve gotten their consent first. What’s more, the team asks everyone not to message the admins unless there’s a very serious problem, e.g. like being harassed.

    When I was a kid my friend's rottweiler became pregnant. I begged my dad for months to let me have one, he refused because of the breed. I finally wore him down but he was not happy about it. They became best friends and to this day the only time I've seen my dad cry was when that dog died.

All rescues and all so happy 😊.

    People who don’t let their dogs on the furniture are missing out on so much love. You can always put a blanket on end of the sofa and train them that’s their spot. Don’t lose out on a lifetime of cuddling, and on your dog feeling loved and included!

    Trying to keep an animal, especially a cuddly and affectionate one, off the furniture is an endless battle you really cannot win. Just resign yourself to all the extra vacuuming, and invest in a Chom Chom for furniture de-furring. TBH, it’s a small price—-a pittance—-to pay for all that abundant and unconditional love your pet gives you.

    We have 3 cats & a Pitmation (Dalmatian/Pitty mixed breed) dog. The dog wouldn't stay off the couch, and sheds like crazy. The Chom Chom is awesome! We also put her bed on the couch since we were fighting a losing battle (and she might be a little spoiled!)

    I love chickens!! They have the best personalities and definitely understand and express love if you just look for it. My chickens (I no longer have chickens due to my declining health and mobility after my husband passed away) used to follow us around until we’d pick them up and they would hug our neck and often fall asleep in our arms.
