Happy happy happy smiling frwiends of furry pets!

There's something about smiling that's contagious. It infects a person's whole demeaner, they can suddenly become a beacon of positivity with just a change in their facial features. It actually makes you feel better inside to smile! And you infect other people around you as well. The weekend is something that makes everyone smile because it's a time when you don't need to devote yourself to work or someone else. You cease to have the same kinds of responsibilities that the work week requires. Your boss tells you to do something on a Tuesday and you're basically forced to do it, but the weekend? The weekend is your time to be on your own and no one can tell you what to do. Even if the weekend rolls around and you have laundry, groceries, errands, and cleaning to do, you simply don't have to! No one is going to make you, and you can sit and smile in your own filth if you really want.

And guess what? Your pet won't judge you either! Pets are another thing that makes us smile and feel good about ourselves. They are there for us during the busy, stressful work week, and they're there for us during the weekend when we have nothing we have to do. They're the best reason to smile because they're probably smiling back at us. Dogs have the happiest countenance, and cats have that coy sneer when they're purring up a storm. Pets are the best, and weekends come in a close second place to them. Enjoy these pet memes for weekend scrolls of pure joy.

Sometimes life can get us down. There are way too many things in the world to cause sadness, but once you realize you can smile and feel better, everything is seen from a different lens of color, a spectrum of yellows, oranges, reds, and brightness that just sparks joy in us. From worldly news, to a failing economy, the exterior ailments that can keep us in a loop of negativity never ceases, and that's not even counting the personal things we all go through. Existential crisis, aging, career confusion, bubbling love lives – it's all sitting waiting to be digested. But with animal memes, you don't have to.
