There are a lot of adorable animals in the wild, but sometimes sea creatures can get a little gnarly and stray from the cuteness scale. It's not their fault that they're hydrodynamic, have multiple eyelids, and sometimes lack basic appendages, they're just not adapted to be cute and cuddly– that is, all sea creatures except for the delightfully adorable sea otter. These water weasels are the most adorable critters of the ocean and boast the fluffiest dense coat, stumpy cutesy arms, and a pair of otterly lovable google eyes that make you want to scream. However, usually these sea noodles can only be observed from far, because not only are they tiny and excellent hiders, but they're also living in the world's biggest biome: the ocean.

Sometimes, hoomans are lucky enough to rescue a few charming pups and can raise them up to be strong and wiley just like their wilderness counterparts. While they're in captivity though, otters become the most endearing little bubbas known to man. Since they're basically a cross between a dog and a cat, they steal the hearts of their caregivers faster than they can scorf down a sea urchin. Fortunately for us hoomans, sea otters are also very amicable and allow the people they trust to endow them with accessories in exchange for special treats.

So without further delay, please enjoy this collection of rescue sea otters wearing remarkably handsome hats.
