Funny And Time-Filling Animal Memes To Keep You Distracted From Work

With the end of the week drawing near, you can almost taste the freshness of the weekend. Work starts to feel rather pointless, and your focus is all over the place, and who can blame you. Thursday is the hooman equivalent of mentioning the word park around your doting doggo, the excitement wells up inside you in a way that you cannot control. And as such, it is best to relinquish control and succumb to today's collection of funny and time-filling animal memes to keep you distracted from work.

From the shocking owl who has surprised the internet with its cross-legged sitting position, to the action hero doggo coming to save you along with his hooman, to the terrifying bird that may or may not be a very bad omen, to the doggo with a unique genetic mix, to the kitty cat who had a spat with a wasp and lost. These funny animal memes are the pawfect distraction from work or anything else you do not particularly want to do today.
