You know, from the animal perspective, the idea of going to work and making yourself look busy is more unhinged than a cat who has climbed the curtains and now stands on its hind legs on the curtain rod, screaming into the top corner of the room as though it is exorcizing a ghost (well, it might actually be doing that).

Because for an animal, work is work, when you need to find food, you do so until you are no longer hungry. You do not stand next to a blueberry bush and pretend to eat. Anyway, we digress, so if you are about to spend your say pretending to look busy while doing literally nothing, you had better set the tone for your farce so that you at least have a happy face to look upon when your boss comes around for a little poke around the bullpen. Which is why we made this list of heartwarming animal memes that will brilliantly brighten your mood as you settle into a day of nothingness.

The pawfect crime is one that no one will believe the victim about. And when you happen to have a legit puppy dog face, then you are likely to get away with quite a lot. Especially when your victim happens to be a cat, who is known for being a little spicy and pushing things off the table. Isn’t it funny that the wolf, that ‘the boy’ once cried about, is now playing tricks on us in our homes?

Yeah, this is about right and pretty much where we would like to be at this very moment in time. Jumping into a jam with our band of animals who want nothing more than to scream into the silence of the office bullpen. And what a deafening scream of frustration that would be.
