Spending time alone in the house is no fun for pets as they don’t have anyone to play with or someone to give them cuddles. This is why they mostly spend that time sleeping or just lying on the bed and waiting for their owners to return. But when that moment comes, they immediately forget they were ever sad or bored, as a recent video shared on TikTok shows.

The clip, featuring footage captured by a pet camera, shows a dog peacefully snoozing on a bed. However, as soon as the canine hears rumbling on the door and realizes that his owners are back home from work, the excitement completely takes him over.

The dog immediately lifts his head and starts ferociously waging his tail. He then stretches out and positions himself to receive massive cuddles as soon as his human walks through the door.

“This is a reminder that no matter how tired you are, your dog waited all day to spend time with you,” it says in the video that received close to two million views since being posted several days ago.

The excitement of the dog ended up warming the hearts of TikTok users, who rushed to the comments section to share how amazed they were by it.

“Animals are proof that true love is in actions and not words,” @bellahumby_ commented.

“That one quote: Dogs are just a part of your life, but we are their entire life,” @courtehnae added.

Internet users were recently moved to tears after watching a video of a pet owner waking up their deaf cat in the most gentle way possible. Prepare some tissues because the chances are that you will feel the same.

The video shows TikTok user Layla C coming back home and finding her deaf cat asleep. In order to let her know the family returned without scaring her, Layla puts her finger close to the feline’s nose. The cat picks up her owner’s scent and immediately gets on its feet.

“Letting kitty know that me and the kids are back home. Kitty is deaf so I use my finger near her nose so my she smells my scent is back home and near, “Layla shared in the caption of the video.

The clip quickly spread across social media, and a lot of TikTok users shared their opinions about it in the comments section. Some were saddened by the cat’s condition, while others simply found her adorable.

“Knowing she’ll never be able to hear you say hello darling to her is making me so sad,” @noelleirina wrote.

“If she’s deaf and sleeping with her belly up, then she must feel incredibly safe in that home,” @swtbabyci added.

X (former Twitter) user @dammitdemi from Kingston, Jamaica, recently shared an interesting thread about how she found out that her adorable pupper named Han Solo was regularly hanging out with a pack of local dogs without her even knowing it.

Han Solo frequently goes out by himself and explores the neighborhood, but he always comes back home on time. However, the other day, the dog didn’t return in time, prompting @dammitdemi to embark on a search for him, which she documented on social media.

Thanks to a tracker on his collar, @dammitdemi knew that Han Solo was at the local golf club, one of the places he enjoys visiting, so she went out to get him.

“Too many hours had passed and my mother had begun to worry… So naturally, I put on some walking gear, grabbed the leash and his favourite ball as I took to the golf course! “wrote @dammitdemi in one of the posts.

After arriving to the golf club, @dammitdemi discovered that Han Solo wasn’t there. As it turned out, the tracking app hasn’t been updated in a while. She started searching for the dog and even contacted his veterinarian for advice.

But suddenly, she heard some barking nearby and decided to check it out. At the same time, the app notified her that Han Solo “has been found.” What she so next caught her by surprise.

It turned out that Han Solo was so caught up playing with other dogs that he lost track of time.

@dammitdemi ended up putting Han Solo on a leash, but he still allowed him to play with his friends for a bit longer before taking him home.

She promised that he would get to see them again, but this time under supervision.

The names we choose for our pets have the power to shape their lives, and no one knows this better than Maria Bertrand. She’s the proud owner of the sparrow named Happy, and he couldn’t have picked a better name for this adorable and cheerful bird.

Happy flew into Bertrand’s life when she was on her daily run back in 2020, and he was so tiny it took her a moment to figure out he was actually a sparrow.

“I thought it was a crab at first because he was a day old. So he was just a teeny-tiny, little, little guy with no feathers. He couldn’t see. And so I got closer to him and I realized it was the bird,” the Los Angeles native told Global News.

Taking care of an injured bird in the middle of a pandemic wasn’t easy because she couldn’t find an animal rehab center to take him in. She had to take things into her own hands and feed him food every 20 minutes to keep him alive.

Happy helped Bertrand as much as she helped him, and she says he got her through a really awful time. Her initial plan was to release him into the wild, but that was impossible due to his damaged beak, so she decided to take him in and they’ve been inseparable ever since.

After rescuing two bunnies and making them part of her family, designer Jeni Nguyen realized she wanted to find a way to make them feel more comfortable in her home. She looked for some furniture that would be fitting for rabbits but realized there wasn’t any. So, Nguyen designed some herself.

Nguyen created furniture that serves its original purpose but also provides a safe zone for bunnies. It effectively solves messy hay problems while also discreetly hiding the litter box.

“Our bond has strengthened immensely now that we can easily spend more time relaxing in the living room together,” she explains. “Best of all, their hay is no longer an issue, and they ended up loving me more in the process!”

Wanting to help other bunny owners, Nguyen launched a Kickstarter campaign to make her furniture available to the rest of the world. The campaign surpassed its original goal of 20K in just a few hours after being launched and is currently over $33K.

The original run will have two designs available: Bench and Credenza. Bench is a smaller piece and can be used as a large side table.

Credenza is suited for larger apartments, and your rabbit can use it as a full-time home.

The first production run of bunny furniture has already been completed and is shipping out to customers. So, if you want to make your and your bunny’s life a bit easier, make sure to check it out.

TikTok user Skye Cotter recently posted a video of her hamster Oscar having the most adorable reaction when he sees her after 10 days. The tiny hamster can be seen running to his owner in order to show how much he misses her.

At first, Oscar wasn’t sure whether it was Skye and was watching her cautiously from his den. But once he realized his owner was back, he started moving faster in anticipation of some long overdue cuddles.

“The way he runs faster once he knows it’s me. I’m so happy to be back with him. I missed him so much,” Skye wrote in the caption of the video.

♬ Iris – Jada Facer

Oskar and Skye’s reunion became an instant hit on social media. The clip has been viewed 1.2 million times since being posted and attracted more than a thousand comments.

Other TikTok users were delighted by the heartwarming scene but also impressed with Oscar’s crib, which was unlike most hamster living spaces.

“What an incredible habitat you created for him!!” one TikToker wrote in the comments section.

“That hamster has a millionaire home,” added another.

This prompted Skye to later share a tour of Oscar’s home in a follow-up video.

Replying to @_the_nae House tour 🐹☺ and before people ask, yes it’s for 1 Hamster and no he doesn’t want friends to share it with😁 Also I did not get all this stuff over night everything he has is 4 years of stuff I’ve collected from all of my Hamsters, 2 have passed away 💕 #hamster #hamstersetup #hamsterhouse🐹 #cagetour #cutehamster #dayinmylife #dayinthelife #fyp #fypシ

Anyone who has a dog in their household knows they don’t like to get their nails trimmed. They will often try to run away or do something unexpected to get out of it. However, it is important that your dog has its nails trimmed as long nails can lead them to develop various health issues.

Dog owners use lots of tricks to trim their pet’s nails in a gentle and comfortable way, but the one recently demonstrated on @_kirbythedog_ TikTok profile has to be one of the simplest and most convenient.

The clip, which already has more than 16 million views, shows a dog owner placing a clipboard with sandpaper attached to it in front of her dog. The dog starts scratching its nails across the sandpaper, wearing them down, before receiving a treat.

“This worked so much better than expected and was so simple to teach!” it says in the caption of the video.

While many TikTok users were surprised with the efficiency of the trick, some wondered whether it has some side effects on the pupper. Luckily, there is not.

“I was nervous it might, but I made sure to check often, and they have been totally fine! He doesn’t spend a long time doing this, though,” the dog owner responded to one of the comments.

Seashell is a tortoise that has a loving family in San Antonio, Texas, that takes much joy in taking care of her. But this isn’t stopping Seashell from running away from home occasionally to embark on wild adventures. And no, the fact that she is slow doesn’t make her easy to catch.

Over the years, Seashell had her fair share of runaways, including the one in 2021 when she decided to break through the wooden backyard gate and explore what the outside world has in store for her. She ended up being spotted by the officers from Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, who managed to reunite her with her owners. And then the same thing happened just a few weeks ago. 

Bexar County Sheriff’s Office shared on their Facebook page that Seashell’s adventurous spirit got the best of her again. She went missing for a few days, giving her family a world of worry before one of the deputies spotted her on the street. He notified his supervisor, who immediately knew who the wanderer was; it was the same tortoise that he had returned to San Antonio native Mayda Garcia and her family two years ago.

Acting on the supervisor’s directive, deputy Joe Garza “arrested” the 60-pound tortoise, placed her in the back of his vehicle, and then took her home. After successfully completing the task, Garza was “presented with an award by his sergeant and lieutenant for catching the tortoise involved in the slowest foot pursuit Bexar County has ever seen!”

“This isn’t our first run-in with Seashell, and with Seashell’s track record, we assume it probably won’t be the last!” Bexar County Sheriff’s Office added in the Facebook post.

Hamsters are energetic little animals that never back down from a challenge. Especially if that challenge requires some running through a Minecraft maze, as recent viral YouTube video shows.

The clip features an adorable hamster named Homa finding himself in the pixilated world of Minecraft. The hamster is stuck in a “prison cell” and now needs to find his way to freedom by overcoming various obstacles and solving a complex maze.

As you might have guessed, watching an adorable fluffy animal making its way through pixilated surroundings is surprisingly entertaining. The video racked up more than 36 million views to date, impressing YouTube users with both its hero and the fascinating design of the maze.

“Hamster Homa is an over-energized Hamster who LOVES adventure! The only thing he loves as much as adventure is juicy carrot treats,” his owner explains.

Hamster Homa’s love for adventure is on full display in other videos posted on his YouTube channel Minecraft Hamster Homa. In them, the hamster goes through various mazes and obstacles, including a different Minecraft maze with lava and a Pop It prison maze with a water slide.

For those wondering whether hamsters enjoy these mazes, rest assured that they do. Hamsters are curious by nature and enjoy exploring new things, solving puzzles, and overcoming obstacles. The mazes allow them to do all of this and be entertained for hours.

“The way he runs faster once he knows it’s me. I’m so happy to be back with him. I missed him so much,” Skye wrote in the caption of the video.

Oskar and Skye’s reunion became an instant hit on social media. The clip has been viewed 1.2 million times since being posted and attracted more than a thousand comments.

Other TikTok users were delighted by the heartwarming scene but also impressed with Oscar’s crib, which was unlike most hamster living spaces.

“What an incredible habitat you created for him!!” one TikToker wrote in the comments section.

“That hamster has a millionaire home,” added another.

This prompted Skye to later share a tour of Oscar’s home in a follow-up video.

Anyone who has a dog in their household knows they don’t like to get their nails trimmed. They will often try to run away or do something unexpected to get out of it. However, it is important that your dog has its nails trimmed as long nails can lead them to develop various health issues.

Dog owners use lots of tricks to trim their pet’s nails in a gentle and comfortable way, but the one recently demonstrated on @_kirbythedog_ TikTok profile has to be one of the simplest and most convenient.

The clip, which already has more than 16 million views, shows a dog owner placing a clipboard with sandpaper attached to it in front of her dog. The dog starts scratching its nails across the sandpaper, wearing them down, before receiving a treat.

“This worked so much better than expected and was so simple to teach!” it says in the caption of the video.

While many TikTok users were surprised with the efficiency of the trick, some wondered whether it has some side effects on the pupper. Luckily, there is not.

“I was nervous it might, but I made sure to check often, and they have been totally fine! He doesn’t spend a long time doing this, though,” the dog owner responded to one of the comments.

Seashell is a tortoise that has a loving family in San Antonio, Texas, that takes much joy in taking care of her. But this isn’t stopping Seashell from running away from home occasionally to embark on wild adventures. And no, the fact that she is slow doesn’t make her easy to catch.

Over the years, Seashell had her fair share of runaways, including the one in 2021 when she decided to break through the wooden backyard gate and explore what the outside world has in store for her. She ended up being spotted by the officers from Bexar County Sheriff’s Office, who managed to reunite her with her owners. And then the same thing happened just a few weeks ago. 

Bexar County Sheriff’s Office shared on their Facebook page that Seashell’s adventurous spirit got the best of her again. She went missing for a few days, giving her family a world of worry before one of the deputies spotted her on the street. He notified his supervisor, who immediately knew who the wanderer was; it was the same tortoise that he had returned to San Antonio native Mayda Garcia and her family two years ago.

Acting on the supervisor’s directive, deputy Joe Garza “arrested” the 60-pound tortoise, placed her in the back of his vehicle, and then took her home. After successfully completing the task, Garza was “presented with an award by his sergeant and lieutenant for catching the tortoise involved in the slowest foot pursuit Bexar County has ever seen!”

“This isn’t our first run-in with Seashell, and with Seashell’s track record, we assume it probably won’t be the last!” Bexar County Sheriff’s Office added in the Facebook post.

Hamsters are energetic little animals that never back down from a challenge. Especially if that challenge requires some running through a Minecraft maze, as recent viral YouTube video shows.

The clip features an adorable hamster named Homa finding himself in the pixilated world of Minecraft. The hamster is stuck in a “prison cell” and now needs to find his way to freedom by overcoming various obstacles and solving a complex maze.

As you might have guessed, watching an adorable fluffy animal making its way through pixilated surroundings is surprisingly entertaining. The video racked up more than 36 million views to date, impressing YouTube users with both its hero and the fascinating design of the maze.

“Hamster Homa is an over-energized Hamster who LOVES adventure! The only thing he loves as much as adventure is juicy carrot treats,” his owner explains.

Hamster Homa’s love for adventure is on full display in other videos posted on his YouTube channel Minecraft Hamster Homa. In them, the hamster goes through various mazes and obstacles, including a different Minecraft maze with lava and a Pop It prison maze with a water slide.

For those wondering whether hamsters enjoy these mazes, rest assured that they do. Hamsters are curious by nature and enjoy exploring new things, solving puzzles, and overcoming obstacles. The mazes allow them to do all of this and be entertained for hours.
