Enjoy These Pics of Wonderfully Unusual Cute Pets
Genetics are pretty incredible.
Even within just one type of animal, the variation can be vast. And what’s more, there’s no limit to it. That’s how evolution works, after all.
Whether through natural selection or purposeful breeding, we’re getting new kinds of lovable doggos and kittens and other cuddly creatures all the time. And each is unique.
Let’s celebrate some notable critters here, via the good folks on Reddit.
10. Just browsing
He looks like he’s got a secret to tell me, and I can’t wait to hear it.
9. The eyes have it
You got some kind of wisdom up in the noggin, kitty?
My boy’s right eye darken each day while left eye looses its pigment from cats

6. Never forget
The sad thing is that he’ll never know.

Dang, pup, eat something why don’tcha.

There’s really nothing better than the love of a good pet. And whether or not they have any distinguishing physical marks that others would notice, they’re always unique and perfect in our hearts. And that’s really what counts.
What is your pet like? Do they have any special features?
Tell us all about them in the comments, please. Spare no detail.

These Pets Are Rocking Their Own Unique Looks
Have you ever read Charles Darwin’s groundbreaking work The Origin of Species?
I have. Well, some of it anyway. Honestly, it’s very dense and not really written for lay people like me, so what I get out of it is that birds need better beaks sometimes and they can get them because evolution does a bunch of mix ups with the bodies and whatnot and some of the new things stay and other ones go.
But if you don’t feel up to delving into a giant scientific tome like that, maybe you’d just prefer to see some adorable instances of genetic variation via these wonderful pets found on Reddit.
I think even Darwin himself would approve of that kind of education.
10. Meet Frankie
He looks like he’s trying to pick up some transmissions from space and I’m here for it.
Frankie was born with four ears and an eye deformity but he’s still purrfect from aww

4. Running circles

3. Dirt

People Share Their Lovely Older Pets with the World
One of the best things any human can experience in this life is the bond we form with our pets.
And one of the most heartbreaking realities is how short their lives tend to be compared to ours.
It feels like some cruel irony – an absolutely perfect and unconditionally loving companion who only gets to stick around for about about a fifth as long as do. But that short span also makes the time we do have with them all the more precious, and to be enjoyed.
Which is exactly what these older pet owners are doing. Let’s meet some cuties. (Names invented by yours truly where not provided. I just go with the vibe.)
11. Luis – Nine Years Old

6. Kendor – Sixteen Years Old
You lay right there until he decides he’s done.

Dog Mullets Are In, So Get on Board!
I don’t know what you want from me. I’m just here to deliver the news that we’re giving our dogs mullets now, and there’s nothing you can do about it, so you might as well accept it.
Come to a place of acceptance and then join us all on Instagram with pics of proof and the hashtag #DogMullet. It’s gonna be ok. It’s gonna be fun.
Here, I’ll give you some examples. Here are some dogs with mullets, accompanied by randomly generated lyrics from non-existent rock songs to set the mood.
10. Sadie
“Look him just in the eyes
Wanna grab him by the hair
Wanna hug him and squeeze his tiny fists
Raven hair, raven hair”
9. Ol’ Chuck
“I want to live a life that’s always worth living
I want to fight for country and been country bound
I want to ride and drink and some gin and sharp bros
Just a lost boy and a pretty girl”
8. Darlene
“As our home back then
We watched the stars descend
Yeah, home at night
When the dogs come home”
7. Sammie
“I let down my hair and shine my shoes
I close my eyes and feel the cold
Cold beer in my hand
God gave moses a little beer”
6. Rex
“We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
We got that old tan and tuxedo leather
When the mice and men walked in”
5. Barber-Jo
“Being that she gives so much, he takes for what she gives
Blowing up in the veins of an aching, craving man
Oh my old heart
Oh my old heart”
4. Charlie

Might just go out to eat, when I hop on the road

Keep your hopes on the right side baby
Keep your fires on the right side baby”
1. Donny
“Cold summer night
In a cold summer night
Yeah, I turn up before the sundown
Summer swings every month night”
It’s really, truly inspiring.

These Things Are Only for Wealthy Pets, Apparently
I’ve never met a dog who seemed particularly picky. Not even about food.
In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever met a dog who was not full-on, b**ls to the walls THRILLED to be eating the exact same bowl of dry food he’d been getting every single day for his entire existence.
They’re really not that difficult to please, is the point. So one might well wonder why a company like Home Concept, which is based in Russia, might offer an entire array of pet beds that are way, way too expensive.
What animal is impressed by these? How is this a thing? Look at these prices (converted to USD.)
(Also I made up all the names because I don’t speak Russian, and I named all the pet models because I like fun.)

Borzoi + German Shepherd = Giraffe? A Family of Long-Necked Dogs Say…“Maybe.”
My dog is a rescue, so we don’t really know what all is in there.
She’s a smallish cattle dog, with terrier traits, and based on her teeth, our vet said, “daddy must have been a traveling salesman.”
But even when you know your dog’s breeding history, or think you do, there can be surprising results.
Meet Gatsby, the two-year-old Borzoi and German Shepherd mix.
View this post on Instagram
Gatsby’s family told Bored Panda that they fell in love with him immediately, even before he was old enough to leave the litter.
“In 2019, I decided our family needed a new member. I stumbled across someone who had a litter of pups from a Borzoi father and German shepherd mother. They had a wonderful, unique look that I was immediately drawn to.
On August 19th, 2019, we took the 3-hour trip to meet the pups. First look at Gatsby, and I knew he was the right one, and the look he gave me, I knew he thought I was the right one.”
Turns out, they were more right about the “unique look” than they realized.
The pooch has a very sweet face, but as he has grown up from puppy to ginormous full-sized canine, one particular feature stands out.
Gatsby has an unusually long neck.
View this post on Instagram
“We returned one month later when he was old enough to be adopted and brought him home. I wanted to teach him many things, and the bond between us has grown stronger than I could have imagined. Today we enjoy parkour, blood tracing, balance training, nose work, and just taking long walks together. I decided early to document our life together through videos on YouTube, regular Instagram postings, and recently took our life to TikTok. We have many adventures planned in the future and are expecting a new brother for Gatsby soon. Most folks claim that he has giraffe DNA in there somewhere, but in truth, it is most likely mythical creature DNA some have hinted at.”
Now, pretty much everyone is familiar with what the German Shepherd breed, so I thought maybe the Borzoi was responsible for the long neck.
As I soon discovered, Borzoi have extremely long legs, and although they are included on lists of long-necked breeds–relative to the proportions of the rest of their body, I don’t think their necks are unusually long, not like Gatsby’s.

It almost seems like Gatsby’s DNA got a little mixed up somewhere.
TikTok users agreed, and Gatsby’s family made a multi-part video of some of their best comments.
@followgatsby More quotes from my comments
@carriecraftsagain @dawnynotblonde #dogsoftiktok #goodestboi
Still curious about their giraffe dog, they also ordered a DNA Test to hopefully solve the mystery once and for all.
@followgatsby Are you guys ready? #dogsoftiktok #dogdnatest #wisdompanel
When the results came in, the family was a little surprised: 50% Borzoi, 25% German Shepherd, and 25% mutt on his mother’s side.
@followgatsby Little did we know!#viraldogsoftiktok #wisdompaneldna #dogsoftiktok #mixedbreed
Maybe there’s a little giraffe mixed in there after all.
His family have fun letting the dog get his wiggles out, and posting his antics to social media.
This recent compilation video, perhaps underappreciated in terms of views, will give you a good taste for the fun he gets up to with his family and brother.
@followgatsby Jumping on this trend #sighthounds #twentyonevideo #viraldogsoftiktok
Thanks to the social media documentation of his adventures, Gatsby the long-necked pup has developed a fan base, complete with amazing artwork!

I always wanted a dog I could ride like a horse when I was little.

My dog is my constant companion.
