It seems like just yesterday the entire Internet was going crazy over an amazing photograph of a weasel riding on the back of a woodpecker. Well, I guess it was only a few weeks ago, but in Internet time, that's basically years ago.
That being said, one of the reasons the photograph went so incredibly viral is not just because it's a once-in-a-lifetime shot, but also because (if you didn't already know), weasels are basically the cutest animal on the entire planet!
It's true! Just look at this adorable video of a baby stoat (which is a type of weasel) snuggling up in its human's bed. That's proof positive.
What's that, you say? You want more proof? Okay, okay. If you're still undecided about just how cute weasel's are, maybe it's time that you met Ozzy the Weasel.
In the below video, you'll get the chance to see little Ozzy in action. The rescued weasel sees his human sit down to get some work done at the computer (and by "work" I really mean "play video games"), and he immediately has other ideas.
As the man's hand sits poised on the computer mouse, Ozzy takes aim and dives in for a little bit of play time, rolling over under his human's hand, nipping at his fingers, and holding on for dear life. It is crazy cute.
As cute as Ozzy is, however, the YouTuber that posted this video warms that weasels aren't really made to be domesticated pets.
"A weasel is not a pet," he writes in the video description. "They hate being locked up, they're not friendly when hungry. Don't get one. Seriously. Ozzy is a special case rescue baby."
So watch and go "awww!" from the comfort of your computer screen, but let's leave this wild little guys to their lives of adventure out in the wilderness.
