Pandas Playing in the Snow

Look Out! The Cute! — Wed, 21 Dec 2011 17:50:13 +0000

Yay for Pandas! We’re all well aware that those giant fluffy bears are adorable all on their own, but when you see them playing around in the snow it takes cute to an entirely new level. Get ready to AWWWW the rest of your afternoon away watching these adorable panda bears in Nanshan Park, China show kids today how it’s done. And yes, I am also aware that these deceptively cute panda bears can also probably rip my head off if they so choose, but that’s why I never get in the way of a playful panda doing his/her thing. Enjoy!

Too Cute Sloths! AKA -The Return of Sloth Wednesday

Look Out! The Cute! — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 20:19:51 +0000

It’s Sloth Wednesday yet again! First, I think we need to work together as a group to make Sloth Wednesday a real, ongoing thing and eventually a weekly holiday complete with t-shirts and such. Anyway, hooray for sloths! As you probably know unless you’ve never been here before, I have a serious love of sloths. They are adorable and all they want to do is hang out, hug, eat upsidedown and hug some more. I was lucky enough to see some amazing sloths in person when I went to Costa Rica last year, and while I was glad I saw at least 1 happy sloth friend in the wild, my biggest regret was not being able to make it to the Sloth Sanctuary located on the other side of the country from where I was staying.

Alas! But thankfully Animal Planet is trying to make it right and is premiering a special called Too Cute Sloths about that special sloth sanctuary. Hopefully this special will tide me over for awhile. And here’s the trailer!

Overwhelming. Sloth. Cuteness. Cannot. Resist. Urge. To. Snuggle.

Check out Slothville for more amazing sloth cuteness!

Yoga Cat Makes Yoga an Adorable Adventure

Look Out! The Cute! — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 16:05:54 +0000

Two posts in two days! Are you totally impressed? Well, you should be. Anyway, some of you know my mom is a yoga instructor and she too has a kitten friend that suddenly needs ATTENTION whenever she starts getting down on her yoga mat. However, this special yoga-loving kitteh is putting Sunshine to shame because she is doing some creative cat moves of her own and seems to have mastered the art of balancing on a human back that is in motion. So do some Sun Salutations then check out Yoga Cat on her quest for Zen and probably some behind-the-ear scratches.

Waving Bear Waves Hello

Look Out! The Cute! — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 03:40:18 +0000

Nothing warms the heart like a giant Kodiak Bear waving hello at you. At least it does today. I think I need this on some kind of loop. Sorry for the recent post hiatus, I had a gross case of the snotty throat awfulness that is going around, and well, not even the promise of adorable Internet videos could get me going. But now we have waving bears and the world seems right once again. What can’t Waving Bear do?

So this happy Waving Bear is currently waving at drive-by friends from the Olympic Game Farm in Sequim, Washington. According to reports at Neatorama, this is not the first time this bear (or one of his other bear buddies) have been caught waving at passersby. So…roadtrip anyone?

Our Favorite (No Longer Abandoned) Ginger Seal Pup Gets a Webcam!

Look Out! The Cute! — Tue, 29 Nov 2011 15:14:21 +0000

Hooray, it’s a Ginger Seal Pup update! You remember this little guy, big sweet eyes, amazing ginger fur, abandoned by mean seal parents for being different? Hang on, let me offer this heartmelting reminder:

The Cutest Ginger Seal Pup Ever Pic by Anatoly Strakhov

Well, the last time we heard about this little seal he was saved by a friendly photographer who then got him a new home in a Dolphinarium in Russia. Apparently he’s doing great and has quite an appetite. In fact, he’s become so popular at the Dolphinarium that now all of us Ginger Seal fans can check up on our little buddy with live webcam broadcasts between 7 AM and 1 PM UK time. Have fun not getting any work done today, or I guess tonight since the UK is a few hours ahead of us here in EST.

Behold the Lovely Owls

Look Out! The Cute! — Tue, 15 Nov 2011 20:25:30 +0000

This owl video is too sweet for words. Owls being adorable and pretty and making me all wishing I had an owl around the house all the time is almost more than I can stand. Granted, I do dream about having my own in-house owl friend most of the time anyway, but then I see a video like this and I remember why. LOVE!

Sometimes something so amazingly magical shows up on the Internet that its inherent awesomeness requires no lengthy introduction. This is one of those times. Live from a TV show in Hunan, China, enjoy the international adorableness of what appears to be a predominately middle-aged Chinese choir do a smile-inducing cover of Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance.

PS – I know the lucite musical insutrments at the beginning are totes amazing, but it gets even better when the choir starts up!

Watch a Tiny Robot Ride a Bicycle!

Look Out! The Cute! — Thu, 03 Nov 2011 17:16:26 +0000

Don’t you just love self-explanatory blog titles? Presented for your viewing enjoyment, here is a tiny robot riding a bicycle. Apparently it was made in Japan and you can buy it for $2,200 which isn’t really that awful if you happen to have a ridiculous amount of money to spend on robots solely invented to ride a bicycle (meaning, not me). So for all of us plebs, just enjoy this video of said robotic bicycling ridin’ For Free! In the immortal words of poet Anne Carson, Let’s Buy It, What a Bargain.
