Of course I feel a bit bad for this little guy, but not bad enough that I won't laugh at him. Thanks to April Grasso for sharing this.

This cute critter climbed into a hamster ball - maybe not exactly stuck, but it sure was entertaining:
(And yes, I know that's a lot of cat videos in a row. But once you find one, all the suggestions seem pretty amusing ...)

One of my co-workers is having some issues with his cat, who can apparently open doors when he is supposed to be shut in a room. So we took to YouTube to see exactly how this phenomenon occurs:

Animal Crackers: Teddy Bear, the talking porcupine, likes pumpkin, too!
I had no idea that porcupines could make noise like this, nor that they were so adorable. Thanks to Danielle Capriato for sending me this guy.

I do feel a little bad for this guy who got his head stuck in a toilet paper roll, but not that bad because it gave me two minutes of entertainment. Also, hedgehogs are cute.

I've seen the aftermath of a squirrel vs. my jack-o'-lantern, but I've never seen the rodents in action. Thankfully, others have caught the destruction and posted it on YouTube to share with the rest of us:

Baby animals of any species are adorable, but there is something incredibly precious about these bear cubs that appear to be about the size of a cat. (Found via Super Punch's Video roundup)

Animal Crackers: Baby wombat takes his first steps
Queensland Parks and Wildlife in Australia recorded this awesome footage of a baby wombat "taking its first, slightly wobbly, steps out of its burrow with its mother." How sweet!

These cats are just so fat. Maybe I shouldn't be laughing at them because I'm sure they have some health problems, but they are pretty funny:
