These Adorable Pets Experience Something New for the First Time and Have Hilarious Reactions
Delighting in "firsts" is definitely not an experience exclusive to humans. Our pets have their own emotional responses to new experiences, too! Our puppies and kittens experience fear at the veterinarian.
Our rats and birds experience surprise with new treats. Our kittens can't make sense of babies, and our puppies do zoomies in the snow.
It's exciting and fun for us to watch others, including our pets, experience new things. We watch eagerly when we give the dog peanut butter for the first time.
We feel concerned and offer comfort when they're scared, and we giggle when they play. Our pets mean the world to us, and that's why we document these moments and share them with the world.
