The work week takes it toll on all of us. There is no denying it. After a week of trouble and toil in the workplace we are usually left overstimulated and underappreciated. Which is not a great way to enter the weekend, which is the only time you have to enjoy being your happy and whole self. So we wanted to make sure that this week you had some sort of outlet to offload your overstimulation and let all the worries of the work week fade into the back of your mind.

Which is why we made this list of awwdorable animal memes, because there is nothing like a mind wash from the animal kingdom to make you feel fresh and relaxed as you enter the weekend. So whether you find peace in cute canines playing hide and seek poorly, or you are a feline fanatic who is only calmed by the clawminality of cats, or if you are unbothered by bears then you might find solace in the arms of our resident brown bear.

  • One of the challenges of being overstimulated is that you have little energy or brain power to say no to things. That was definitely the case for this cat who thought he was being dragged out for some long walk in the wilderness which was already a bit much, but then found itself hung in the air like a salami in a deli.

  • This looks like the pawfect amount of physical contact. We especially enjoy the fact that it is happening through perspex, such that when you have had enough all you need to do is withdraw your hand or paw and the hooman contact is over. What a relaxing idea.
