This hideously ugly pig thing reminds me of a real Pigglet from Winnie The Pooh. Link.

Adorably Strange Animals
These critters are some of the weirdest ones on the planet. Included is one of my all time favorites, the platypus.
The picture at right is a star nosed mole. That funky looking thing on its face helps it eat like crazy. I’ve seen women at Sizzler that seem to be its distant cousin.

Another Adorable Animal Pairing
A rejected new-born red panda was adopted by a mommy cat. It happened in the Australian Zoo. Why do these animals continue to taunt me with their love and adorableness?
Red pandas as adults are the cutest things ever too. I wanna seem him growned up and playing with his mommy kitty.
Thanks Rueters.
Here’s a new way to clean up your streets, pay people to use the restroom. If only San Francisco used this approach instead of offering toilets you have to pay to use. The streets sure would smell nicer.
I guess if you’re really poor you have a new option of places to live for your panhandling. Personally though, I’d go to Scandinavia, those bums make bank.

These little insect faces have so much personality. It almost makes the critters lovable even though they’re still creepy and dirty.
The one on the left looks like a cute old man.

Another Awesome Cake -Wasp This Way
This lemon loaf cake with toffee wings is adorable and a little creepy. Sounds yummy although I’d be so sad to cut it open.
Cute little waspy, I hope he likes milk, because that’s where he’s getting dunked.
All these news stories lately are making me a sucker for bear stories. First the bear and kitty friends, now this. Ram Singh Munda, a resident of India, saved this little bear when it was abandoned in the forest. The bear, named Rani or “queen,” became friends with his daughter who was recovering from the death of her mother and is now like a member of the family.
Unfortunately, rather than trying to do what’s best for all involved, the Indian government just arrested Munda, sent the bear to the zoo and his daughter to boarding school. Now the little bear isn’t eating. The whole thing just isn’t right. I do agree that he shouldn’t be raising a bear at his house, but he shouldn’t go to jail and the bear’s hunger strike is dangerous. Booo Indian government! Booo!
Seriously, how cute is that little bear on the bike? He looks like he’s smiling.
Hey you guys!

Ugliest Dog Contest Winner
In one of the world’s newest, meanest, funniest and all-around best competitions, Pee Wee Martini (right) was NOT named “World’s Ugliest Dog.” Personally, I think this little beast of an animal beat out the winner, Gus, by a long shot as far as looks go. I mean look at the crooked nose and mangled tongue -he makes Rosie O’Donnell look good.
But Gus (left) won, and I’m glad he did because he’s got the story behind the title, he has been fighting skin cancer for years and came from a bad home. Plus, he lost his back leg to cancer and an eye to a cat of all things. He’s a lover and a fighter and he will be in the hearts of all who love his little spirit long after the contest. Go Gus!
In related news, Neatorama has the story of Jenny, Britain’s Most Unwanted Dog. Poor Jenny was in the shelter for a whooping 11 years and has only now been adopted. I love this story and the people who were willing to give her a good life after all those years in the shelter. Hooray for Jenny!
