Spring is officially here! At least, that's what the calendar says. I live in the northern part of the U.S., so despite what the spring equinox claims, we just had a full-blown snowstorm today. But honestly, I'll take it. It's still warmer than it was two months ago, and those random 65-degree days in the middle of the week are giving me a will to live again. Plus, I'm writing this at 7:30 p.m., and it's still light outside. That alone makes everything feel a little less miserable.

If you have a pet, they're probably also starting to enjoy the change in seasons. No more side-eyes for taking them outside in freezing temps, and walking your pup outdoors is suddenly tolerable again. If my pittie were still around, she'd be sunbathing the second it hit 50 degrees (anything colder, and she'd act like she was being personally victimized by the weather). If you and your pets are ready to welcome spring with open paws, these uplifting animal memes are for you!
