15+ Pets Who Have Fully Embraced Their Odd Personalities
When you own a pet, it often feels like the other way around, and they actually own you. There are times when you live by their schedule, and they take up a significant portion of your monthly budget.
Still, we love these little monsters to pieces, and they know it. They understand that no matter how many shoes they chew through, important documents they ruin, or Zoom meetings they interrupt, we will always be there to pet them a few minutes later.
Despite, and perhaps because of, their oddities, we adore our furry companions. They are quite literally the sun around which our tiny universe revolves.
Some pets, however, are more quirky than others, and the citizens of the vast internet flock to them as if they are deities. These funny photos and videos of their weird behaviors have served as our respite during long work hours.
Do you know that viral TikTok voiceover of a lady saying, "Do you ever look at someone and wonder, what is going on inside their head?" Most of the subjects of these viral videos are domesticated pets who are just plain weird.
Their humans have lived with them for years and are no closer to discovering why their pets behave that way. We are not here to psychoanalyze these pets; we are here to marvel at their individual weirdness that brings happiness to our weary hearts!
