Man Arrested For Loving A Bear Like One of the Family

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.

Ugliest Dog Contest Winner

Pee Wee MartiniIn 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!

Most Adorable Deer Baby Ever…Thanks to Cute Overload

Too Cute!!!!Cute Overload has the cutest little deer with an equally sweet story attached. A couple found this little baby deer on the side of the road where its mommy was just ran over. The couple took it upon themselves to nurse the baby back to health.

It hangs out with kitties, takes walks and tries to nurse on a Great Dane. How much more adorable can you get?

On the discussion side of things, what will happen to little Jet grows up? Surely they can’t have a full grown deer in their house and I don’t think you can just let a little guy like that back into the wild. I’m not saying what they did isn’t sweet and wonderful, but what do you think they will need to do in the future?

Pussy and the Little Mouse, How Cute!!!!

awww, too cuteThe Daily Mail has a story about a regular house cat who has become best friends with bear at a zoo in Berlin. It’s seriously f-ing adorable. They had to put the bear, Maeuschen -or “little mouse,” away while they renovated his living space and his buddy, Muschi -German for “pussy,” wailed outside of his cage without him. Keepers put the kitty back in the bear cage and they cuddled and were happy again. I’m going to go cry and vomit while filled with this cuteness. Excuse me.
