Bear Cub Tumbles Down Waterfall While Learning To Fish In Viral Video
Peak salmon migration occurs in late July in Brooks River, Alaska and attracts the brown bears of Katmai National Park. Countless bears can be seen in the river and mostly at Brooks Falls hunting for salmon. One of Explore.org’s bear cams placed at Brooks Falls to observe the bears captured a heart-stopping moment for a mama brown bear known as 910 and her cub. The two were among several other bears searching for salmon in the water. 910 has her own way of enticing the salmon with a “special dance”. However, she wanted her...

Woman Saves an Abandoned Cat on a Busy Interstate
It was a day of errands for Alex de Ponte until something interesting caught her eye while driving on the interstate. She was able to spot a black cat on the side of the road. The situation was worrisome since it is dangerous for animals to hang out near roadways — especially if it’s a busy interstate. Alex couldn’t just stop on the side, as she was in the opposite lane. She decided to finish her errand first and check back on the cat on her way home. @alexdapontemusic #cat #cats #kitten #kittens #pet #pets #petsoftiktok...
Travel Reminders for the Pet Parent
Traveling has always been an effective way to relax, find oneself, and learn more about the world. It gives people excitement that turns into memories, especially with loved ones. Moreover, your trip becomes even more memorable with your pet. As a pet parent, part of showing your love for them is taking them out for an adventure. If pets enjoy a simple walk in the park, they will most likely enjoy beach outings, hiking, road trips, and more.

Two-Legged Dog Still Needs A Home After Spending A Year In The Shelter
There’s no doubt that dogs with special needs tend to spend more time in the shelter. There are those who have a big heart, however, who often come in and give them the chance that they really need. That is where Bebe comes in. She is only two years old and is a husky mixed with a German Shepherd. For her entire life, she has lived in the shelter, including a year of her life at The Animal Pad. She came to that nonprofit dog rescue in San Diego after losing both of her hind legs, according to an Instagram announcement: Bebe is doing...
Cat Can Sleep Through Anything Except This One Sound
If you have a cat in your life, you don’t really need anyone to tell you just how interesting they can make your daily living. Everything that they do is going to bring a smile to your face or at the very least, make you scratch your head in wonder. Nobody knows this better than Paul Klusman, who fancies himself as being a professional cat engineer.

Stray Dog Sick With Fleas Ends Up In A Kind Stranger’s Yard
Our hearts really go out to strays when we see them. We can’t help but wonder where they were, what they are doing, and how they are going to get by.

That includes the kindhearted people at Stray Rescue of St. Louis. That rescue center is accustomed to seeing strays in all kinds of difficult situations, but when Annie McHound was brought to the rescue, they were surprised by what they saw. It seems as...
New Puppies Can’t Help But Say Hello To The Next-Door Neighbor’s Cat
They sometimes say that birds of a feather flock together but then again, we also hear about strange bedfellows. I’d like to think of the three new puppies in this story as being those strange bedfellows with the Bengal cat named Billy. It seems as if the three puppies moved in and they wanted to say hello and make friends with their neighbor. It wasn’t just any neighbor that lived there, however, it was Billy, and they needed a way to see through the fence. Photo: flickr/gailhampshire Fortunately, the owner of Billy was there to...
Three Bear Cubs Have A Blast On A Backyard Hammock
Nature is all around us – even in our backyards. We all get to experience a number of different wildlife visitors to our backyards throughout the year depending on where we live. Personally, where my parents live in California, they see a lot of birds – obviously – and opossums. They also see the occasional raccoon, which my dad has lovingly nicknamed Rocky. Here, in Ireland, I’m used to seeing lots of magpies and grey squirrels make their rounds to my backyard. But none of these furry visitors can compare to what...
