Animal lovers far and wide have always cared for and loved the most memorable animals. Whether that be your typical dogs and cats or even aquatic and land species, these animals tear at our heartstrings and make our lives so much more fulfilled.
Dogs have been a staple for what seems like years. Many of them have even evolved into social media stars, either on Instagram or TikTok.
For example, TikTok sensation Noodle is a pug that blew up because of whether or not he could stand on his own two paws. His owner came up with the idea that if his beloved pug would stand it would signify a good day which is a bones day, and if he could not stand then it would be a bad day resulting in a no-bones day. Noodle blew up on TikTok because of this and many people would follow the bones day myth as if it were real and the outcome would revolve around their whole day.
Additionally, there are many other dogs that have had their time in the spotlight as well. Some dogs have taken on some of the biggest roles in society, for example, being mayor of their towns.
Max, a golden retriever, was inaugurated as mayor of Idyllwild, California in 2013, after that town had a fundraiser for local animal rescue nonprofits. Additionally, Parker the snow dog was sworn in as mayor of Georgetown, Colorado because of his leadership as an official mascot of the ski area and his ability to give hugs and love to citizens.
Cats and their feline presence are known to make people excited and happy. Some are even the most unique and distinctive breeds out there.
There is a cat called Panko Cat, one of the cutest and most inquisitive animals who has a following of 259,000 people on Instagram and is known far and wide on TikTok. Her personality is shown on social media and is favored among many. One interesting fact about Panko is that she has an honorary degree in Cat Engineering, from Carnegie Mellon University.
Another feline that has made their mark is Stryker, a stunning savannah cat. Stryker is Instagram famous for his unique coat. His owners rescued him from a small cage, and ever since then have given him a much better life. However, there is controversy surrounding these breeds and whether it is humane to keep them as pets. Yet, Stryker’s importance on social media and the care that his owners give him seem to trump that idea.
Special animals like aquatic species showcase uniqueness and their own individuality most commonly in movies and aquariums.
One of the most famous dolphins is named Winter, a mammal that was known in a movie based on its origin story called, Dolphin Tale. Winter had a heart-warming story about not having a tale, and then receiving a man-made one that allowed him to survive. Sadly, Winter passed away Nov. 11, 2021 due to an intestinal abnormality, but his memory and presence lives on.
These animals are special and memorable in many different ways. They possess uniqueness and are defined as incredible species that will live on forever.
