Cute! Roundup: A Small Bunny That Just May Be a Deity! (Also, a napping lizard, sheep playing rugby, and more!)

This was from when I was staying at my parents' house. I set up my desk on the dining room table, and Gertie made herself very comfortable across the way on my desk.

Cute! Roundup: The Deadly Adorableness of a Baby Goat! (plus a squirrel, dog, cat, and more!)

I am at my parents' house now, hunkering down from the pandemic with family, and that means that Gertie gets a whole new set of fancy chairs to claim as her own.

Lately, I am even more gushy than usual about how much I love Gertie. She truly is the wind beneath my wings!

This new phone holder has some interesting features (but is not super reliable).

Honestly, is this a cat-squirrel hybrid?

Gertie thought she could have a moment's peace curled up behind the arm of the chair, but I will always find her!

Cute! Roundup: A Bunch of Puppies in a Bucket, Cat Paws, Zebra Orphans, and More!

Sometimes, Gertie displays that wild superpower cats have to sleep in the most seemingly uncomfortable positions, but seem totally blissed out on it. Like, I can get behind this curled-up on-your-back position, but extending your limbs across the hard edge of your basket? That's a recipe for pins and needles.

OTHER CUTENESS:

Here is a bunch of puppies trying to get into a bucket. You're welcome.
