Just like any other shelter dog, Lilly hoped someone would see her true colors and adopt her. That day came when David Lanteigne rescued her for his mom. Christine Spain had suffered from alcoholism and depression, but when Lilly came into her life, she made great strides in her recovery. But then Spain got some […]
Currrently, the police in Texas are investigating a case of animal cruelty… one that could’ve ended much, much worse. Just wait til you see the video at the bottom. This is Al Gaeta of Collin County, Texas. He was on his way to work when he spotted something seemingly normal in the road. It was […]
The lengths our friends at the Wildlife Aid Foundation will go to in order to save an animal in need never cease to amaze me. When a baby kestrel fell out of its nest at the top of an enormous tree, Simon and his pals had to call in a highly trained climber so that […]
Cat and dog people, we’ve been lied to for so, so long. For years, everyone’s told us that it’s one or the other…that felines and canines simply don’t get along. But if there’s one thing we know after watching this adorable video, it’s just how wrong those people are. Rolling around together, sleeping, and cuddling, […]

When you come home from work and see your shoes torn to bits, your first instinct is probably to yell and scream at the likely culprit — the dog. But if you can keep your head on straight and take out your phone, you can probably capture some of the cutest footage imaginable. But if […]
It looks like four former street dogs, rescued from the slums and abandoned lots around São Paulo, Brazil, have found their dream job after taking on the role of ‘ball dogs’ for a tennis match at last week’s Brazil Open. Frida, Costela, Mel, and Isabelle were specially trained in the hope that the stunt would […]
Bees are an important part of nature. Their pollen-spreading habits keep many parts of our lives in balance (even when we don’t realize it).
