Cat person, dog person, what about an all-animal person??

Yeah, I love cats and dogs. I'm not a monster, but I also love ALL animals. I'm the kind of person who could definitely be kidnapped if you just told me you had an animal in need. My mom used to always test me as a kid, asking what I would say if a stranger came up to me and asked me to help him find his lost dog. And I knew the correct answer would be to say, "STRANGER DANGER, GO AWAY!" But also, like… What if they really had a dog lost? That's absolutely devastating and, yes, I would want to help them find their beloved pet! Heck, even if it were a lost snake or wallaby, I'd go out crawling through debris looking for those little babies. 

Luckily, I never came face-to-face with that situation as a child. As an adult, I would still fall for it, but at least it's my own fault now. To satiate my need for wholesome animal content, I turn to the memes. From cats and dogs to birds and squirrels, there is something for every animal lover online. But not just awwws and cuteness aggression, though there is a lot of that. But also LOLs! We love the LOLs, especially animal ones. It's so much nicer to laugh with a cute furry friend in mind or by your side. I bet your dog would love to see the squirrel memes and your cat the mice memes. Sure, they might not technically understand the humor, but they just want to be involved. So involve them while you scroll below!
