]]>Female Domination
It’s pretty rare for females to be dominant over males in the mammal world, but lemurs are a rare exception to this rule and their societies are mostly ruled by female leaders.
Blue Eyes
Animals with blue eyes are nearly impossible to find, and lemurs just happen to be the only primates known to have blue eyes besides humans.
Self-Medication
Lemurs developed a unique way to self-medicate and deal with unwanted parasites, chewing on millipedes to create an orange-colored substance that can act as a mosquito repellent.
A Capella Singing
Certain species of lemurs have a pretty interesting way of communication, and that’s certainly the case with Indri lemurs. They often sing in sync with each other, and their a capella abilities are a sight to behold.
Stink Fights
Lemurs can’t rely on communication to settle their disputes, so they often resort to “sink fights”, wafting the strong smells into each other’s faces with their tails until one of them backs off.

]]>The clip, shared by @thai.and.nicole, shows a golden doodle named Pita arriving in front of the door. Using her paw, Pita knocks on the door while also announcing her presence with a bark. Soon enough, the homeowner opens the door, and the dog cheerfully walks inside.
“Meet Pita, our neighbor’s dog who learned how to knock on our door when she wants to play with our dogs!” @thai.and.nicole shared in the caption of the video.
Other TikTok users called the scene “adorable,” although some wondered what happens when Pita comes and no one is in the house.
“her playing in the front yard when you’re not home,” @caroljayy wrote in the comments section while adding “crying” emojis.

]]>Low Maintenance
First things first, frogs are relatively low maintenance compared to pets like dogs or cats. They don’t require daily walks or constant attention, making them a great choice for pet lovers who might not have a lot of free time.

Quiet Companions
If you live in an apartment or a space where noise is a concern, frogs could be the perfect fit. They’re generally quiet, especially compared to a barking puppy or a meowing cat at 3 a.m.

Keeping a frog can be a fascinating educational experience for both kids and adults. You get to learn about their life cycle, their environment, and their behavior. It’s like having a little piece of the wild right in your living room.

]]>The post TikToker Has Separation Anxiety From Her Dog While at the Club, So She FaceTimed Him appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>During a recent visit to a club, TikToker Carly Mickeal felt separation anxiety from her golden retriever Jasper kick in, so she decided to FaceTime him. In a viral video shared on social media, Mickeal can be seen dancing and pointing out to her smartphone while Jasper is curiously looking at him through the screen. She then sends him a few kisses, letting the dog know she misses him a lot.
Mickeal’s clip ended up spreading across social media, receiving more than 11 million views since being posted in early April. And it also showed that there are plenty of other pet owners who are willing to do the same in order to cope with separation anxiety.
“That’s hilarious because that’s something I would do. lol,” one TikToker wrote in the comments section.
“Me on vacation and I miss my dog,” another added.
So there you have it. If you are missing your pet, turn to the magic of FaceTime. It might not make the separation anxiety go away, but both you and your pet will feel better.

]]>The post Hilarious Clip Shows a Kitten Being Pushed into Water by a Cow appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>The video, which got 1.4 million views in less than a week, starts with what looks like a cute bonding moment between a cat and a cow. The cat is walking on a wall, while the cow seems like it wants to know the feline a bit better.
However, at one point, the cow simply pushes the kitten off the wall and into a container filled with water. But this apparently didn’t discourage the cat at all, as she simply found a way out of the water and started parading again.
Other TikTok users were hugely amused with the clip, with some trying to guess what caused the cow to push the kitten.
“You smell, you need a wash,” one user commented.
“That was personal,” another added.
We would say that this is a teaching moment for the kitten not to mess with bigger animals, but something tells us that they will never learn.

]]>The post Seamus T Cat is Instagram’s Most Adorable Long-Haired Scottish Fold appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>Scottish folds experienced quite a boom online in recent years thanks to their owl-like appearance, but there’s something that separates Seamus from other similar kittens. He’s a long-haired Scottish fold, best known for his lush black fur and fluffy grinch feet.
Seamus was approximately eight months old when he was rescued in Kuwait, and he was later taken to the United States, where he’s now living his best life.
“He now spends his days in sunny South Florida and spends most of his days napping, playing, eating, watching birds, and being cute… He doesn’t usually like to cuddle but does prefer to be in the same room with his humans,” reads Seamus’ official website.
Seamus isn’t the only adorable pet in his household. His owners adopted two more rescues – Pete, who has only three legs, and Opie, who is blind. They sometimes appear in videos on his Instagram page @seamus_the_scottish_fold, which attracted over 315,000 followers.

After the first video made such a big splash on social media, @jorgeregula222 decided to ask her followers about some other food she could treat the mouse with. The most resounding suggestion was a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and it turned out to be a great suggestion. The TikToker also revealed that she named the mouse Honey.

]]>The post Meet Coffee aka Mr. White: The Adorable Kitty Who Survived Cancer appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>Coffee’s owner Pookie adopted him from one of her friends when he was just five months old. She started sharing his adventures with the world and he went on to become a true sensation, but Pookie’s world was shattered when it turned out Coffee was seriously ill.
After feeling a lump on his side, Pookie took him to the vet, and it turned out he was showing the symptoms of lymphoma.
“He started to become lethargic. He would just lie down on the cold tile. He wasn’t playful, and he didn’t have an appetite. He was always so thirsty… He wouldn’t come near us; he would find a corner or a chair. He was very sleepy all the time,” said Pookie when discussing his illness with People, in the hope she’ll help other cat owners recognize the symptoms early.
Coffee received a lot of support from his followers while battling cancer, but those days are now long behind him. Years after his diagnosis, Coffee is as healthy as one can be and millions of people tune in to watch his shenanigans every day.

]]>The post Woman Helps Save a Skunk Mother That Had Its Head Stuck in a Can appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>In a recent Facebook post, animal organization Raven Ridge Wildlife Center from Washington Boro, Pennsylvania, shared a story about how a woman named Laura helped save a skunk that had its head stuck in a can.
As soon as she noticed the skunk in her driveway, Laura placed a call to Raven Ridge Wildlife Center. Worried that the skunk might get away before the help came, staff told her to try and capture it. Laura obliged, getting creative and trapping the animal in a clothes basket.
After the skunk made its way to Raven Ridge Wildlife Center, the veterinarians sedated it and removed the can. During a checkup, they discovered that the skunk gave birth to babies recently and needed to be reunited with them as soon as possible.
“Laura was more than happy to help, and we quickly got the skunk back to her home the same day she was admitted. As she ran towards the tree line, we knew she knew exactly where she was,” Raven Ridge Wildlife Center wrote in the Facebook post.

]]>The post Researchers Name New Gecko Species Found In India After Painter Vincent Van Gogh appeared first on Our Funny Little Site.
]]>Cnemaspis vangoghi received its name thanks to its colorful appearance and combination of blue and yellow that resembles the motifs and patterns found in Van Gogh’s masterpiece “Starry Night.” The second species, Cnemapsis sathuragiriensis, was named after Sathuragiri Hills, the region it inhabits.
Thackeray Wildlife Foundation team found the two new gecko species while researching the Western Ghats, a biodiversity hot spot where scientists regularly discover new species, in April 2022. They were initially believed to be specimens of Cnemaspis galaxia, but DNA testing showed that it is a closely related but distinct species. The researchers shared their findings in a recent paper published in ZooKeys journal.
“These species live in low-elevation deciduous forests of Srivilliputhur, adding to the five known endemic vertebrates in the area. The geckos exhibit strong sexual dichromatism, are diurnal (active during the cooler parts of the day), and are commonly found on rocks, buildings, and occasionally trees,” Thackeray Wildlife Foundation shared in a social media post announcing the discovery.
