Pictures Worth More Than 1000 Words (23 images)

It's the final week of the year. Finally, this insane year will come to an end and the door to a new year will open, along with new opportunities and hopefully less madness overall. But, we still have a few days to go, and those few days just so happen to be some of the busiest ones. That means we need some inspiration, some motivation, and if you're here, then you know what that means. It's time for this week's collection of animal pictures worth 1000 words.

This collection, as expected, is extra Christmassy and wintery - with cats reacting to Christmas trees and animals frolicking in the snow. Like always though, each and every one of these pictures has a story in it, something to draw you in an inspire you to finish the week - and the year - on a strong note.

Have a great week, everyone, and happy new year!

There is nothing quite like a cat's first reaction to a Christmas tree. The amazement, the joy, the mischievousness so clearly shining in their eyes. These little hooligans see that tree and are ready to cause chaos. And we love it. We cannot help but love it. Christmas is not the same without cats.

Of course, the other thing that we love so much about the Christmas period are all the animals that play around in the snow. And this is one of our favorites from this year. You can so clearly see the purity of the pup and the love of the mom in this photo. We absolutely love it.
