We hope you're having a pawsitively great week so far, animal fam. We know it's Wednesday, and you're tired, wishing you could just jump on a plane to Bali right now and furget all sense of responsibility, but our bank accounts just can't afford that right now. We need to work, and we read something recently that taking more frequent small breaks actually makes you more productive. At least, that's what we're going to tell our boss when they walk by and we're scrolling through these awwdorable animal pictures.

These pictures are part of our fool-proof work survival guide for managing that mid-week slump. You know the one we're talking about. You were supposed to get some things done last night and this morning, but you lost motivation to do that on Monday. So now you're a day behind and need just a few more minutes to throw something together - enter hilarious animals in the form of digital delights, stage left. Not only are they cute, but they're also pawfectly addictive. Best of luck!

Come on, how can you not be distracted by this pupper? How silly is he? Relaxing on watermelons like they are the comfiest bed in the whole wide world. What a silly goose. We wonder what else this listicle has in store….just a few minutes won't hurt anyone.

Oy, Donkey! Get outta my swamp! We, too, go all out for Halloween (we assume this must be a Halloween costume, why else would they be dressed up as Shrek?), but we've never gone so far as to rent a live animal to complete our costume. Props to this man.
