That little pink tongue is out and proud! There’s something hilarious about this relaxed, basking cat who apparently forgot how to function for a bit. Is anyone else suddenly thinking that 'derp' should be a formal mood status? This cat seems pretty pleased with its life choices.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime capture. The stretch. The sneeze. The utter, chaotic energy of a cat who’s just being their true self. I can totally understand why this would send someone into a laughing fit. Honestly, I feel better just having seen it.

Walk in expecting to find an empty room, and there’s a dog taking full ownership of your vanity. Excuse me, are you about to film a beauty tutorial? Not gonna lie, the vibe is 100% 'contemplating life decisions in the best-lit spot possible.'

Okay, this is too much—who ordered a box full of pure feline goofball? Those eyes scream both 'help' and 'I’m having fun.' If ever there was a subscription box for derpy cats, this would be the promotional shot.

Wait, when did we get a gecko costume for this little one? That shedding pattern seriously looks like reptilian outerwear—perfect for Halloween or just confusing your friends. Nature really outdid itself with this fashion statement. Pet runway, anyone?

This is the textbook definition of 'derp' and it is glorious. Eyes wide, tongue out, and that little peek of confusion—perfection. I feel like this dog has just experienced the world’s greatest surprise…and forgotten what it was two seconds later. Pure, wholesome derp energy.

So that’s how it goes: if the cat’s up, then everyone’s up! The intensity in those eyes is both adorable and slightly intimidating. Get ready for chaos, because no one sleeps when the household tyrant is on duty. Resistance is futile.

Seven months old and already taking up the entire lap! That blissed-out face says this is exactly how cuddles should work, regardless of size. Honestly, who could ever say no to a snuggle like that? Not this human!

Somebody found the softest, coziest boot and claimed it as the perfect pillow. I sort of wish I could try this napping technique. Dogs always find the strangest, most adorable places to snooze. Face-in-boot is an oddly solid choice.

Suns out, tongue’s out! There’s something so pure about a dog this content and floppy in the backseat. Those road trip vibes must be top tier—clearly, no worries, just wind and sun on the tongue.

Bobo may be 17, but those head rubs clearly still hit the spot. Whether you’re feline or human, some things never get old. The post-pet zen face is the universal expression of pure happiness. We could all use a little of that energy.

Went out searching for the missing cat, only to find them living their best life in the front yard. It’s a professional-level nap right there. Just proves: when cats disappear, it’s time to scan every sunbeam and cozy patch of grass nearby.

Majestic is right…sort of. The proud posture paired with the tongue derp? Iconic. German Shepherds do it all: guard your house, pose regally, and make you laugh daily. We salute you, big goof.

We need a whole new storage category: pet-drive! Puppies as data is probably the only safe kind hackers can’t steal. That look of determination—and the pun headline—makes this the best tech support I’ve ever seen.

There’s a comforting security in knowing that a cat, no matter the species, cannot resist the call of the box. Even mountain lions have to fit in! This should be a scientific principle at this point: If there’s a box, there will be a cat in it.

I have a lot of questions about how this lil guy ended up in a bag, but mostly I’m impressed. That is some committed sidekick behavior. Is this the ultimate friendship test? Possibly. It definitely looks cozy in there.
