23 Stupid Pets You Can’t Help But Love

I have a really old, really stupid cockatiel named Tina. Every Monday when the garbage truck comes the noise of it wakes her up, but because the cover is over the cage she can’t see anything and so she starts screaming. It’s like she’s thought, “Oh sh*t, I’ve gone blind!”

My dog used to scratch his ear so much with his back foot that he would hurt his ear and then bite his own foot to teach it a lesson.

I have a corgi-Aussie mix. He’s got the corgi length and is stubby. Whenever we get a big snow, he’ll waddle up to a tree and lift his leg to pee, throws his whole body into the motion, teeters, and then slowly falls over onto his side. He’ll casually get back up and waddle back to the sidewalk like nothing happened.

One day, after we had gotten 7 or 8 inches of snow, my cat decided to be a brave adventurer and dash out of the door. She knows she absolutely hates snow, but always does this. She runs out, jumps into the snow and disappears. I’m sitting there letting her learn her lesson. I hear a muffled meow scream as she very slowly lifts her head up above the snow. Her mouth stays wide open, her eyes pure and total regret, and continues to stare at me doing this meow until I came and picked her up.
