The world got you down? Allow me to suggest some baby animal therapy with the video below, because it's very nearly impossible to watch the following video and fail to crack a smile.
This daily dose of adorable comes to us from The Pet Collective, masters of capturing the cutest little stinkers on the web. In the video below, we see a bunch of feisty weeks-old kittens going nuts for a post that manages to combine two of their favorite things: scratching and cardboard. I've watched this video about three times for no other reason than it's the cutest thing I've seen all day.
If you're wondering about the cat-cardboard fixation that has yielded a great many viral videos, we may have an answer for you. A while back we posted a video from Florida-based animal sanctuary Big Cat Rescue, in which a group of researchers decided to find out once and for all if the cats of all sizes have the same fascination with cardboard. Lo and behold, even wild cats have a thing for cardboard cubes, behaving in much the same way as smaller domesticated kitties set loose on a box-filled utopia. What more is there to be said other than the universal constant that cats are to boxes as dogs are to tennis balls.
