Time flies like an arrow. Fruit-flies like a banana.

I’m sure they’re very dangerous creatures, but my dumb lizard brain can’t get past OMG SOFT FUR AND CUTE NOISES to even recognize SHARP TEETH, PROBABLY.

My cat watches* these otter videos all the time, he’s quite captivated by them.

  • I put them on, he watches them… Still trying to figure a way he can choose his own.

Bunnies, on the other hand, are crazy for bananas. Bonkers. Mine will brave the slippery laminated kitchen floors to get a piece, and even recognize the word.

The cuteness, the teeth!

Forget the log channel, they should run that 24/7.

That gif raises a question - Do otters actually like bananas, but this particular pair are Boingers following the standard instruction to “Just look at it”?

Otters apparently don’t make for good pets.

Obviously they don’t like them because bananas are non-stackable

Ahh yes, the classic teacup bunny to banana measurement conversion. Useful, and adorable.

Turns out not everything is better in metric :slight_smile:

Interesting. Not what I would’ve guessed.

My dog loves bananas. We have a food dehydrator, and he adores dried bananas. When we have a batch on, he’ll park in front of the dehydrator, just waiting and sniffing. Since dogs use scent more than vision, I guess it’s the emotional equivalent of a movie for him?
