We love to play with our pets during the day. It’s our form of bonding with them, especially when they have all the enthusiasm and energy to do so. And if not for playtime, we all love cuddle time with them, especially on slow days.

But what exactly do our pets do in the evening? Of course, we know about their zoomies in the middle of the night. We could only assume all the havoc they wreak when we wake up to it the next day.

This fur dad was thinking of the same thing. His concern was more specific; he often wondered how he kept missing his alarm and thought maybe his cat had something to do with it.

The cat he wanted

Aaron Brown always wanted to have a cat. Who wouldn’t, right? He was on the hunt for the right one. Finally, last February, he found Tormund.

Tormund was a shy cat at first. Like newly adopted pets, he was quiet and very behaved. He was probably just taking his time to get used to his new home. But a few months later, that all changed as Tormund slowly broke out of his shell.

The playful one

Aaron soon found his beloved cat becoming more playful. Sometimes, he is even more playful than he would have wanted him to be. Not that he was complaining!

But sometimes, his cat’s antics could cause a bit of trouble. For one, Aaron suspected that Tormund snoozed his alarm more than a couple of times. He wasn’t sure about it yet, but he was about to find out.

Tormund’s nightly activities

Curious about what his cat does every night, Aaron set up a camera in his room to record whatever Tormund was doing while he was asleep. Lo and behold, he saw the crazy things his cat did!

He was playing around – jumping from table-to-bed-to-floor-to-bed. It was like an endless loop! He sometimes sat on Aaron’s chest and lay down beside his face. No wonder he woke up often with too much cat hair in his mouth!

But there was one discovery that made Aaron just laugh and shake his head in disbelief. He saw how Tormund would snooze his alarm!

As it turned out, when Aaron’s alarm went off, Tormund looked at his phone and tapped that huge snooze button flashing before his eyes. Of course, he wasn’t aware what the button was for, but he knew he could tap on it like crazy.

Aaron laughed at what his cat did because pressing that snooze button might get him in trouble for work if he did not arrive on time. Yikes!

A handful – but loved

Aaron recognized that Tormund could be a handful. He was only a few months old and still has that kitten energy. But even if he was such a naughty cat, he still loved him.

Despite all his nightly quirks and activities, Aaron adored his cat for being that smart and loving. He only hoped that all that energy would tone down once he grows older.

A clever dog named Scout escaped from a nearby animal shelter not just once, but three times!

Apparently, he had people to see and he wasn’t willing to put it off.

His favorite place to go was Meadow Brook Medical Care Facility, a nursing home for seniors.

This brave dog managed to get past two fences, dodge traffic, and sneak into the lobby to sleep on a couch for the night.

It sounds like a story from a movie, but it really happened!

Knowing the probable reason why Scout acted in such a way.

When a surprised nurse found him the next morning, everyone realized that Scout was not your average stray dog.

He had a mysterious past and was named by the shelter staff because of his cautious behavior.

If you had the chance to pet him, you’d notice BBs or birdshot lodged in his jowl.

Even though a sheriff took Scout back to the shelter, he kept coming back to the nursing home couch—twice!

A kindhearted pooch.

Meadow Brook is about an hour away from Traverse City and takes care of seniors dealing with illnesses, dementia, or loneliness.

Somehow, Scout decided that this was his forever home.

The nursing home’s administrator, Marna Robertson, noticed how determined Scout was to be there and asked if anyone wanted a dog.

The answer was a big yes! Meadow Brook became Scout’s new home, and the seniors were very happy.

Today, Scout is more than just a pet; he’s a friend to the seniors living at Glacier Hill.

He walks around freely, visiting residents and lying down wherever he wants.

Scout is also smart; he knows how to open doors with his paws and find dog biscuits hidden in walkers. The nursing staff even held a fundraiser for the animal shelter that first took him in.

Scout has become very popular, and someone even came to meet him after seeing him on social media.

The internet star was named “Resident of the Month” in February and has his own bed and toys in the office.

Scout’s past, however, is still a mystery.

“All they knew is he was abused. He was just very scared,” explained the household coordinator, Jenni Martinek.

“Maybe he felt like it was a safe environment,” said Marna Robertson, the nursing home’s administrator. “He certainly has a penchant for the elders. If they have dementia or if they’re not going to be around much longer he knows that, and he will go and be with them and comfort them. He must’ve just felt like he needed to be here.”

Scout’s impact goes beyond just comforting the sick or lonely. When a resident was feeling sad because of a missed visit, Scout was there to cheer him up.

He attended a pizza party with the residents and staff, lying quietly at their feet.

Scout may not be able to talk, but he knows how to show love and be loved.

Meadow Brook isn’t just a place for Scout; it’s his home, where he’s made a family.

Abandoning an animal is terrible in itself, but tossing it out of a moving vehicle? It’s infuriating that some people have done that. Most of the time, they get away with it while the poor animal is left hurt.

An incident like this happened on a highway in Michigan.

Fourteen-year-old Gavin Orlowski and his mother were driving through Interstate 196, Michigan on a Sunday to drive to a birthday party. While on their way, they didn’t expect to see something that made them stop in the middle of the road.

“I hear my mom…she’s driving, and I’m in the passenger seat and she’s like [gasp],” Orlowski said.

It was a poor cat being thrown out of the van in front of the mother and son.

The cat managed to hang on and so the teenager went out to get the cat.

The thrown cat managed to slip out of traffic and survived. Gavin however, knew thought that he needed to get the cat, and so he did without any hesitation. The boy bolted out of their car, not caring that they stopped traffic at I-196.

He caught up with the cat, only this time, the poor feline was now “hanging off the over-bridge.” However, it just gave the boy more reason to save the cat. Gavin held up his hand and grabbed the cat just on time then took it to their car. There’s no one reckless enough to do a thing like this, and we’re glad that this boy did.

At that moment, the driver was already gone.

Gavin and his mother still tried to find the person responsible for throwing the cat off the highway, unfortunately, who knew how far that person had gotten after the incident.

“It was gone, the truck just bolted out of there,” Orlowski said. “Why wouldn’t you just let a cat go, at least just let him go, not just throw him off a bridge.”

It’s hopeless to try and search for the culprit, but they knew that there’s plenty of ways to help the poor cat.

They got him checked at the veterinary and heard a series of relieving news.

The family rushed him to BluePearl Animal Hospital as recommended by their friend. After the check-up was conducted, the doctor told them that there’s nothing wrong with him except the nails that were torn off after grasping on asphalt.

They were already happy about this news, but soon after, they heard another one that put their hearts at ease. The receptionist walks in and says,

“Mrs. Brown we just received a phone call from one of your Facebook friends to cover, basically all of the bills,’” Orlowski shared.

After hearing a series of good news, they decided to adopt the cat, and they also named him Lucky.

How lucky can this cat get?

First, he managed to slip through traffic without suffering from any major injuries, the boy saved him just on time before he fell from the bridge, and finally, his rescuer eventually became his family and his life-long friend.

No wonder they named him Lucky. It was the perfect name for this odds-defying cat. Furthermore, his new family is more than lucky to have him.

Jules Casey, a seasoned diver with countless underwater adventures, experienced something remarkably unique on one of her recent dives.

On this particular day, she encountered an octopus that seemed unusually curious and interactive.

What started as a routine dive turned into an unexpected journey, led by this intelligent sea creature.

Little did she know, this octopus had a special destination in mind.

As Jules swam through the familiar waters, she felt a gentle tug on her hand.

Looking down, she saw the octopus reaching out to her, almost as if inviting her to follow.

Intrigued and slightly bemused, she decided to go along with it.

This wasn’t a typical behavior she encountered from marine life, and the curiosity was mutual.

The octopus led her away from her usual path, navigating through the underwater landscape with surprising intention.

The journey was fascinating.

Every few moments, the octopus would glance back, ensuring Jules was still following.

This consistent checking-in was unlike anything she had seen before, displaying a level of awareness and consideration that was truly remarkable.

Jules couldn’t help but feel a bond forming, as if this creature understood more than it let on.

The underwater world, typically serene and predictable, was now filled with an air of mystery and anticipation.

After some time, they arrived at an area marked by two metal stakes and a stone structure.

Jules had never noticed this spot before, despite her extensive dives in these waters.

The octopus moved gracefully around the structure, seemingly guiding her attention to specific details.

There, amidst the marine environment, was a photo of a man holding a white fluffy dog.

It was an unexpected sight in the depths of the ocean.

Jules took a closer look and realized the significance of what she was seeing.

The photo was part of a memorial built by fellow divers, commemorating the father of one of their friends.

It was a touching tribute, blending human sentiment with the tranquility of the underwater world.

The octopus, with its careful movements and guiding gestures, had led her to this place.

The moment was deeply emotional for Jules.

Standing there, in the quiet company of the octopus, she felt a profound connection not just to the memorial, but to the intelligence and empathy of her guide.

It was clear to her that this octopus had an understanding of the significance of the site, something she found both humbling and awe-inspiring.

Jules couldn’t help but reflect on the intelligence of octopuses.

These creatures, equipped with nine brains, exhibit behaviors that are often difficult for humans to interpret.

Yet, in this instance, the actions of the octopus seemed deliberate and meaningful.

Its ability to lead her to the memorial and its continuous checks on her following spoke volumes about its cognitive abilities and emotional depth.

Sharing her experience, Jules was moved by the reactions of others. One viewer encapsulated the sentiment perfectly: “What a special, cross-species moment.

Parroting others here, I’ve no doubt that the octopus understood the commonality between the photo and the diver, and knew the site would be of interest.”

This comment resonated deeply with Jules, affirming the extraordinary nature of her encounter.

This dive was unlike any other Jules had experienced.

The octopus, with its intelligence and seemingly purposeful actions, had created a memorable and touching experience.

It reminded her of the deep connections that can form between humans and the natural world, even in the most unexpected ways.

Jules left the dive with a renewed sense of wonder and respect for the incredible creatures that inhabit our oceans, and a story she would cherish forever.

There’s something universally delightful about giving pets a good scratch, and for many animals, the pinnacle of affection comes through the humble belly rub.

Pet lovers know it, animals relish it, and the internet loves watching it.

Enter a charming scene from the Life with Labradors YouTube channel, showcasing a litter of five-week-old puppies encountering the bliss of belly rubs for the very first time.

Their owner, seizing a moment of playful energy, decides it’s the perfect time to introduce them to this quintessential pleasure.

“I think you need a good old belly rub,” the owner muses to one of the lively pups. “I think that would calm you down.”

This invitation marks the beginning of an adorable exploration of trust and comfort for these tiny creatures.

The owner gently rolls the first puppy onto its back, presenting its belly for the inaugural rub.

Initial confusion gives way to ecstatic kicks, a dance of joy and surprise, as the puppy experiences the new sensation.

Yet, soon enough, it surrenders to the soothing motions, embodying the serenity only a good belly scratch can provide.

As the ritual extends to each pup, a pattern emerges: a universal response of bewilderment followed by acceptance.

Their initial reactions, a mix of startled kicks and puzzled looks, quickly evolve.

Some pups fall into a tranquil slumber, while others seem to ponder, “Why stop the play for this, human?”

The video, capturing these heartwarming moments, skyrocketed to nearly 4 million views.

It’s clear these puppies have not only captured their owner’s heart but that of viewers worldwide, spreading smiles and a collective “aww.”

Beyond the cuteness, the video taps into a deeper truth about dogs: their love for physical connection.

Dogs thrive on touch, from cuddles to belly rubs, lighting up neurons in their brains that crave this affection.

It’s a shared joy, reinforcing the bond between pet and owner.

However, the same rules don’t apply to felines.

Cats, though not opposed to affection, have sensitive bellies that might lead to an unintended scratch session if overstimulated.

This distinction underscores the unique ways we connect with our pets.

Understanding the significance of belly rubs sheds light on the dynamics of trust and affection in our relationships with dogs.

When a dog shows its belly, it’s not just asking for a rub; it’s expressing trust and inviting a deeper bond.

These Labradors, just beginning their journey, have already started mastering the art of asking for love in the form of a belly rub.

An Amazon driver appeared out of nowhere, like a superhero, to save a young woman and her dog who were being attacked by a larger dog.

And the whole scene was caught on camera.

The confrontation happened outside Las Vegas when Lauren Ray saw a dog roaming around the neighborhood.

It seemed friendly enough, even coming over and playing with her.

Until Lauren’s dog, Max, came out to investigate and play.

The two dogs begin to sniff each other first but then things got ugly.

The strange Pitbull began attacking Max, who is much smaller and obviously can’t put up much of a fight.

That prompted Ray to pick up her dog while attempting to make the aggressive Pitbull go away.

The Pit was’t having it, snarling and jumping over and over attempting to reach for Max in her arms.

Lauren knew she needed help.

She began screaming for help and that’s when Amazon delivery driver Stephanie Lontz jumped on to the scene facing off with the aggressive Pitbull.

As soon as she gets in its way, she screams at Ray to get back in the house.

Lontz uses her agility to block the barking Pitbull as it kept trying to get past her.

Lauren gets back in the house with Max, and aside from a few scratches, she and her dog are okay.

All thanks to the brave and selfless woman who went a la Black Widow on the attacking dog.

It’s a good thing she was in the right place at the right time.

And as soon as Ray was back inside, Lontz moves to leave but not before shouting, “You’re bad dog!”

“I scooped him up, because I didn’t think he stood a chance in a fight, and I wasn’t going to let him fight. I just started screaming, because someone has to hear me,” Ray told Inside Edition.

Her father, Michael, saw the entire encounter via the Ring app on his phone.

He’s a real estate agent who was in his car about to show a client a home when he got a notification.

‘I’m a half an hour away from the house,’ he said. ‘Literally it’s like I’m watching a football game and screaming at it. I’m like, “Get in the house, get in the house!”’

Lontz and Ray eventually met with both ladies just glad they were both alright.

“I didn’t have enough time to say thank you. I was just shaken up but I’m so glad I got to see you again and it means a lot to me.” Ray said.

Lontz was ‘just glad’ she could assist and help save the young woman and her dog.

“The screams made me think of my own child,’ Lontz said. ‘I would only hope someone would jump in and help her if she was in a similar situation. I wouldn’t even think it’s motherly – it’s just the human thing to do.”

Amazon and 702 Logistics, a local courier company on the contract, saw the video and rewarded the selfless Lontz with four tickets to see a Christmas attraction held in Las Vegas.

She deserves it!

Dogs may be famously known as the ‘loyal’ pet, but cats can be just as loyal to the people they love.

A cat named Toby is perfect proof of that.

Even though Toby’s family no longer wanted him, he wanted them.

His family gave Toby up, but at least they found him a new home.

According to the SPCA of Wake County, Toby showed up on this family’s doorstep as a stray but wasn’t getting along with their existing cats.

So they gave Toby to a new family.

The only thing was that Toby wasn’t ready for a new home with a new family.

So, he walked 12 miles back to his old home.

Instead of being impressed by Toby’s act of love, his family asked the shelter to euthanize him.

“They took him to a shelter and asked them to euthanize him,” Tara Lynn, communications director for the SPCA of Wake County, told The Dodo.

“It was just so heartbreaking to know he made it all the way back to his family, and that was their response.”

The public shelter took Toby’s story to heart and refused to put him down.

They instead called the SPCA which came to rescue Toby right away and make sure he had a medical assessment and was on his way to finding a forever home.

“He tested positive for feline immunodeficiency virus, and also had an upper respiratory infection,” Lynn said.

“We got him treated for the infection, which took a little while.”

He was very warm, sweet, and affectionate with the SPCA’s staff, but it took a little while for him to warm up to the other residents.

“Initially, the seven-year-old FIV positive kitty wasn’t very excited about sharing a room with other cats, but he quickly became a volunteer favorite,” the SPCA said.

Once Toby was all healed and ready to find a forever home, his picture was posted on social media.

The phone was ringing off the hook to adopt Toby.

Michele Puckett of Raleigh, North Carolina ran over to the shelter to meet Toby to see if they’d be a good fit.

They hit it off right away!

“She had no hesitation whatsoever,” Lynn said about Puckett. “She was on a job site and just dropped everything to come here.”

Now Toby has two new humans and two cat siblings.

“He is just so sweet, cuddly and loving,” Puckett told The Dodo. “He’s also pretty much taken over our bed, as if he’s lived here forever. He loves to relax and lay under our pillows.”

It’s heartwarming to know that Toby finally has a loving home where he belongs and is welcome and taken care of.

“It’s really hard to understand how someone could have dropped him off to be put to death like they did,” Puckett said. “It’s shocking, but we feel so grateful he was saved.”

She hopes that Toby’s story can bring awareness to the importance of giving other pets like Toby a second chance at life.

“There are tons of pets who are easily discarded by their families or a breeder,” Puckett said. “I really hope he inspires other people to go out and adopt.”

Toby’s new mom ended up getting her wish as Toby’s story ended up going viral and was shared by dozens of media outlets.

“We’ve spent the last 36 hours fielding calls from newspapers, websites and TV stations from across the country about Toby the cat. We first shared Toby’s story in March on Facebook to promote the 2018 Dog Walk and Woofstock event, May 6th,” the SPCA wrote on April 19.

“His post received a lot of response, but it wasn’t until he was adopted that his story really took off on social media and has now been seen in New Zealand, Italy, Canada, South America and around the globe.”

We’re so glad Toby has found such a wonderful place to call home and that he has so many fans around the world rooting for him!

Animals, even those who do not necessarily know each other, have a way of protecting each other. The story we have today is proof of that.

This incredible rescue of a rabbit from a hawk assault by a deer was captured on camera and has gone viral.

A rescue operation on another level

In Wisconsin’s Nordic Mountain Country Park, a mighty hawk can be seen swooping down on a rabbit before its victim screams out in agony on security camera footage.

A deer bravely appears out of nowhere and dashes toward the hawk, kicking it with its hooves and allowing the rabbit to flee.

It all happened so fast.

The bird is afterward repeatedly trampled on and bit by the deer for up to three minutes until it passes away.

The deer didn’t hold back at all.

Kris Miller, a 29-year-old operations manager, found the video on June 11.

When he noticed a red-tailed hawk lying dead nearby while cutting trees, he made the decision to watch the videos from the neighboring camera.

He was dead curious about what happened.

“The rabbit started to make a distress call and the deer may have mistaken the call for her own fawn’s distress call,” Kris remarked.

“Or maybe, it’s just a true Bambi and Thumper story.” He also remarked that he has never witnessed anything like it before.

When he decided to see for himself what exactly happened to the hawk, he wasn’t expecting to see the whole thing.

It surprised him.

“I remember thinking to myself, ‘hawks don’t just fall from the sky and die’ so I noticed we were in front of one of our security cameras and was hoping I could see what really happened,” he recalled.

“I played back the footage on my phone and what I found was astonishing,” he shared. “I showed it to my co-worker and he didn’t know what to say.”

It doesn’t happen every day.

Since the place is a county park, hunting isn’t really allowed in the area. Because of this, numerous white tail deers opt to reside in the park where they feel safe.

The red-tailed hawk can be seen in the video either straining to hold the rabbit or swooping down to get it, which is why the deer was able to easily rescue the rabbit.

The doe didn’t waste a second.

The video spread like wildfire with millions of views. It has been shared thousands of times as well. With that, the video has garnered thousands of comments as well.

“For over 20 years, we have lived with deer coming through our yard, hanging out, just chilling. Never in my life have I ever [seen] a deer behave this way,” one commenter posted. “Amazing to watch.”

“This is one of those things that if you witnessed this with your own eyes and tried to tell someone, no one would believe you. Incredible this was caught on video,” another one wrote.

Indeed, this is probably one of the most astonishing rescue operations ever!

Dogs give themselves to us without reserve, but not all humans are willing to do the same for them.

But a police officer in Deer Park, Texas has been hailed as a hero by many after an incident that was captured on video.

Officer Joel Nitchman put his own life at risk to save his K9 partner, a dog named Roni.

The incident happened on a winter day when a tornado hit the area causing Roni to become trapped inside a patrol car.

But despite the dangerous conditions, Officer Nitchman showed bravery and heroism, rushing to the rescue of his beloved K9 partner.

Footage showed the tornado beating down on the squad car as he rescued his partner.

“I’ll never forget the noise. That’s when I knew this was a big tornado,” recalled Nitchman to KHOU 11.

The winds had started to pick up on Jan. 24, right after the pair returned to the police station from training.

“The thought of debris or the car flipping over — I couldn’t, couldn’t do that to him, I couldn’t have him out there during that,” said Nitchman. “He’s put himself in harm’s way for me before.”

Nitchman went on to say how debris was hitting his face and how he struggled to get the door to the squad car open because of the high winds.

“I could barely open his door. When I did, he’s a smart dog. He saw what was going on outside, and he was like, ‘I’m not coming out.’”

Roni is a good, strong boy!

Deer Park is a city located just west of Houston.

“I’m like coaxing him: come on buddy. Let’s go,” Nitchman told KHOU11. “I love that dog. He’s my hip attachment almost every day of the week. He’s a part of our family. You can’t leave a loved one like that. There’s no way I was going to leave him like that.”

Where many others would have just run for shelter, Nitchman’s deep devotion to his duty and the strong bond he shared with Roni, had him braving the storm out of love for his pal.

Best friends forever that’s for sure!

And yes, he did manage to get Roni out, bringing the dog to a safer place.

It is sweeter to brave a storm with someone you love, and who loves you back unconditionally.

Many viewers left positive comments.

@jakeberg6758 said,

“AWESOME!!!!! That dog wouldn’t hesitate to give his life for that officer, love to see the LOVE returned. That’s the kind of officer you pray comes if you or your family ever needs help.”

@carolinagirl7596 commented,

“What a great guy. He and his K-9 are a great team. I’m thankful that he went out there to save his partner. Says a lot about his love for the dog and his character.”

We couldn’t agree more!

The tornado tore through the Texas town, destroying buildings and throwing debris around, making the outdoors a very hostile environment.

But Nitchman was way tougher than any storm that day.

And Roni had complete trust in his partner too!
