Happy New Year! Congratulations on making it to 2024. A new year is a time for new beginnings - it's time to either kick some bad habits or start some new ones. One of our resolutions this year is to laugh more and enjoy more of the small moments in life. We're starting 2024 off strong because we're already laughing thanks to these hilariously silly animals in meme form. Let's begin the year with a belly full of giggles, so here are some mood-lifting memes to leave you laughing on the first Monday of the new year.

From a raccoon that is born to be wild (but only until 9 PM) to a dog that changed his life after trying one local beer, we're beginning this Monday on the right paw thanks to these silly animal memes. Let's try to find a reason to laugh once a day, so be sure to come back and check for more hilarious animal memes to stay true to your new year's resolution. Enjoy!

    We have never identified with a meme more than this one. Listen, if you haven't gotten to your 30's yet, you won't understand. Something about the big 3-0 makes you immediately more tired and less likely to go out after 9. We don't make the rules, we just follow them.

    We don't understand this type of coffee - it takes forever to brew, it's complicated, and it doesn't taste any better. Why do people waste their time on these silly contraptions when we have perfectly good machines to automate and do this for us? Go pay $12 for your latte somewhere else, we're fine with a black drip.

    Brian Blickenstaff @BKBlick My wife got this papoose/sling thing for our ridiculously spoiled cat and now when we're cooking the cat throws temper tantrums and the only way to make her stop is to break out the cat bag and let her ride in it. 11:37 AM - 25 Sep 20 TweetDeck
