We don't know about you, but our newsfeed has been pawsitively awful recently. That can only mean one thing: it's time to cleanse our souls with some adorable animals.

If you're anything like us, you're pretty much addicted to your phone, especially recently. Constantly checking for updates on the latest headlines only to be met with disappointment, fear, and anger. It's natural. The world is not a fun place right now, and there's not much we can do about it. But there is something we can do, and that's to choose what we consume. It may feel like your mental state is out of your control, but that's where you're wrong. In times like these, it's actually the most important time to choose to be happy.

Yes, it is a choice. You can choose to consume the things that encourage pawsitivity instead of fear. You can choose to smile even when you don't feel like it. And if you are saying to yourself, "But what's out there on the internet that is a break from the headlines?", well, don't you worry. That's our specialty.

Here at the Animal Comedy offices, we have one purpose, and one purpose only: find the most wholesome, heartwarming, and adorable animals for you to enjoy for a much-needed break from your normal feed. We've got baby animals galore, pawfectly cute puppers, and all the wholesome silliness you need to take a shower for your soul.

There is good in the world, you just have to know where to look for it.

Come on. Seriously. How can you not smile at this fox. He's wearing a captain's hat for goodness' sake! He's a working man! He's even smiling because he loves his job! It's seriously too cute. Even for a moment, we forgot our problems because of his outrageous cuteness.

Congrats! You've been invited to this horse's birthday party! Everyone is happy at a birthday party… until they find out the cake is made of hay. That's not exactly the flavor we would have gone for, but it's not our birthday. You can't be frowning while you're blowing up balloons, so get to decorating!
