Gooooooaaaaaal! 

Not everyone loves sports, but when there's something as big as the World Cup, almost everyone tunes in to see what's happening. One of the most celebrated and iconic sporting events in the world. The way it brings nations together and everyone across the world is affected by it in some way or another. One of the reasons the World Cup is so ubiquitously beloved is the ability of sports to unite people. The painted faces, the colors, the chants, and the feeling like we belong to something bigger than ourselves. That's sort of how your pet feels too. When they see you get excited about the game it makes them feel like they're a part of it too, and there's something special about that. Your passion infects them, and you two bond in a different way over sports. The emotional stakes of the World Cup are also unusually high, and that's why it's important to have an animal beside you.

And if you get the chance to watch the games alongside your pupper, purrer, or chirper, then it's an even better experience. Our pets comfort us in ways we can't conceptualize without them. There's such a warmth to their touch, their fur, and the fact that they enjoy what we enjoy. Have you ever just felt like your pet has a favorite show or movie the same way you do? It's because they do, and they're immensely influenced by us. Go ahead and enjoy these pet memes and remember that your pet is always there for you whether you had a hard day at work, or whether you just want to kick back on the couch and watch the World Cup.

  • I've been watching the World Cup intermittently with my partner. I'm not a sports fan in any way, and definitely not soccer. But he's a huge soccer fan and if I'm going to be a supportive partner it means I can tolerate a couple hours of seeing men pass a ball around to each other. And honestly, I'm getting into it! Maybe it's the fact that it's just relaxation time on the couch, and maybe it's the fact that I can drink during the game. Either way, it's been pretty fun.
