Making Sure Dad’s New Girlfriend Knows She’s Not Invited

We’ve all heard of this stereotypical relationship problem: the girlfriend gets annoyed by how often the boyfriend plays video games with his buddies instead of spending time with her. By the looks of it, that’s what’s going on here. And this guy’s dog saw it as an opportunity to give herself an edge over the girlfriend. She snuggled up to dad to show him just how little she minds the video games – “unlike that lady sitting over there,” her expression says.

The dog seems to be making warning eyes at the girlfriend that she has won this battle.

Welcome to McDonald’s Drive Through, How May We Help You?

Elephants are fascinating creatures that have extremely high intelligence. However, despite their brilliance, they still can’t help but get into trouble now and again. In India, where elephants are more common, there is a military base where a particular elephant named Bhatbhoot lives. And this elephant feels so comfortable there that it often reaches through windows and uses its trunk to take some food. This happens so often that they have nicknamed him the “Rice Ghost.”

We cannot imagine that the people who live there are fans of Bhatbhoot taking some of their food for itself, but they aren’t exactly going to argue with an animal weighing thousands of pounds.

It’s Called Survival of the Fittest, Kid

Fishing is an experience, not just a skill. Taking your child out to learn how to fish can teach them patience, love, respect for nature, and much more. When this child caught their first real fish, they were ecstatic, and the parents quickly snapped a picture of the moment. But the photograph doesn’t just capture that child’s precious moment; it also remembers the time their child’s first catch got stolen by their cat.

You can see the cat reaching up to snatch that fish right off the child’s fishing line. The child’s face doesn’t have tears, but those will probably appear shortly.

When You Know Where Mom Keeps the To-Go Treats

Dogs and their smiling, happy faces are some of the cutest things in the world. But they can make many other facial expressions. Just take a look at this beautiful black dog who has a look of utter fear in his eyes. The reason? Well, this good boy has just been busted being a bad boy. Looking at his paws, you can see that he was reaching into his mother’s purse and doing some good ol’ pickpocketing.

What could have driven this innocent dog into a life of crime? The only plausible explanation is that his mom must keep some excellent treats in her purse.

“You Might Be His Wife, but I’ve Never Seen Him Hold You Like This”

A common pastime of most couples is spending some time on the couch and enjoying the more recent streaming options. However, unlike most relationships, this guy’s wife has been replaced by their cat. Now the spot next to the husband is cat-only. If you have any doubts, just check out the cat’s facial expression. That serious look clearly says that the wife better thinks twice – and then think again – before sitting down.

Cats are territorial creatures. Usually, they lay claim to specific spots throughout the house, but they will also happily claim human beings and other living creatures as theirs.

When Dad’s New “friend” Tries to Get in the Picture

If you’re in a relationship during the holiday season, you’ll probably want to get some adorable couple photos. If you have pets, then you have to include them to ensure everyone gets to see the entire family. When this couple came together with their respective dogs for a holiday photo, the boyfriend’s dog made its feelings towards his new girlfriend quite clear with a massive kick to her face.

While it is not unheard of for pets to not love their owner’s partner, it isn’t often that the animal will make their feelings so well seen.

“Oh, This? This Is Just My New Lipstick”

Cats are just as bad as dogs when it comes to getting in trouble. We have all seen how cats love throwing random things off desks and their other nefarious behaviors. This cat’s owners cut up a nice watermelon for themselves, but when they returned, they discovered their whiskered child eating it. The cat had no defense with its red-colored lips and watermelon-drunk expression. There was no getting out of this one.

The cat appears to have a bit of a drunk glint in its eye as the owner holds it up for the cat’s mug shot photo. Guess watermelons are intoxicating for felines.

This Guy’s Girlfriend Prefers to Spoon With His Prairie Dog

One of the many benefits of owning animals is that you will always have a cuddle partner. However, this is also one of the perks of having a romantic partner. One would imagine that the human partner would supersede the animals in the cuddles department, but this couple’s prairie dog doesn’t feel the same. This prairie dog snuggles right up to his owner’s girlfriend’s face every night, and they both look so peaceful.

This image of the girlfriend and the prairie dog coupling together is adorable, but it is also clear that the boyfriend is no longer necessary for snuggle time.

“Like Taking Candy From a Baby,” Said the Cat

Babys, toddlers, and pets can be the best or the worst combination. For one, toddlers and babies with access to a household pet will not hesitate to get rid of their unwanted food by giving it to the dog or cat as soon as the parents turn their heads. And secondly, some furry friends won’t hesitate to take both the unwanted and wanted food from their tiny humans. And down below, we see the perfect example of that.

The funny thing about this image is how the cat has stretched itself out from the edge of the couch to access his sibling’s food — living on the edge.

It’s a Thin Line Between Loyalty and Possessiveness

There’s nothing better than when your favorite pet and your favorite human get along splendidly. But what happens when things go too far? That’s what happened to the lovely woman who adopted her dog years before meeting her significant other. She thought the two of them were just good friends, but when she got out of the shower one day, she walked into this. It’s clear her furry pal has become possessive over her boyfriend.

Not only is the dog’s arm draped on the boyfriend’s chest, but the expression on the dog’s face makes it clear that the dog feels entitled to her boyfriend.
