We love our pets. They’re so cute and fluffy, with their soft bellies and big, silly paws. It’s no wonder that now with cameras in our phones, we take tons of pictures of our furry friends. The result is sometimes adorable. Unfortunately, sometimes it’s not so good.
And then, of course, sometimes it’s so hilariously bad that there’s nothing to do but post it on the internet for everyone to laugh at.
Don’t be mistaken, we still love our pets during their more awkward moments. If anything, they probably make us love them more. Who doesn’t love seeing a photo of a cat trying to be dignified as it falls off a table or a dog face planting as it runs across a yard?
Call it a baser instinct, but for some reason, when our pets take bad photos, we just can’t get enough of it. Whatever the reason, we’ll never stop loving them at their weirdest, ugliest, or most awkward moments.
These 30 animals are having a rough go of it. Some of them got caught at a bad camera angle Some of them had their most awkward moment caught. And some of them were discovered being the little weirdos that they secretly are.
1. This cat, making its divine ancestors proud
This cat was caught on camera midway through a vigorous bath. It was not the most flattering camera angle.
Shoving a cat into a festive hat is a favorite activity of cat owners everywhere. Because they’re so cute in their tiny little clothes, right? Right??
3. Getting caught mid-bite is never flattering.
It’s this puppy’s birthday! Let’s give him some cake to celebrate. I’m sure he won’t turn into a terrifying monster.
4. What an impressive portrait.
This pug’s portrait should be hanging on the wall of his ancestral castle, terrifying future generations of pugs who walk the halls.
5. The bath strikes again.
This puppy has clearly given up after his last bath. He’s pathetic and shivering. Just wrap in my towel, mom, and hold me.
6. I have some questions.
So many things are coming to mind looking at this picture. Did the cat eat the hole in the bread and get its face stuck? Did the owners make the hole and put it on the cat? What is happening??
7. Look at that guy’s goofy smile.
It may be unflattering, but it’s also kind of sweet. His goofy, buck-toothed smile is evidence of how much he loves the person taking the picture.
8. He’s living up to his reputation.
Most black cats don’t conform to their stereotypes at all. Not this guy. If he’s going to be a black cat, he’s going to sit in some Halloween decorations and snarl like a tiny demon.
9. Tiny body, lots of anger
You’d be angry too if you had wolves for ancestors but selective breeding had reduced you to the equivalent of a fluffy, adorable rodent.
10. I think you may own a supervillain’s cat.
Don’t be alarmed, but I think this cat may be cackling maniacally as it plots world domination. Who do we call about that?
11. This guy takes things to another level.
This is impressively bad, even when it comes to unflattering pet photos. The tongue, the bulging eyes, the pose. We may have a winner. But let’s wait and see.
12. Was he stung by a bee?
Considering there’s no accompanying story about Fido getting stung by a bee and having an allergic reaction, I can only assume this is just how his face normally looks. In his defense, he’s still super cute.
13. Unflattering, but cute.
This is another sweet one, with a cat that seems to be intensely enjoying a snuggle. At least this unflattering photo was the result of a sweet moment.
14. This dog is having a midlife crisis.
This dog looks like it rolled over in the middle of the night and started thinking about mortality. Someone needs to give him a biscuit or something.
15. Imagine rolling over and seeing this face.
You’re sleeping peacefully on a Saturday morning, you roll over, open your eyes, and see this weirdo gazing down at you.
16. Just look at this goofball.
Dogs’ enthusiasm for life often comes at the expense of their dignity. Frankly, we should all take a lesson from them. But it doesn’t mean we can’t laugh at them along the way.
17. Put your tongue back in, dude.
What is this dog even doing? Did he forget to put his tongue back in his mouth? Is he trying to taste some yummy bacon in the air? What an adorable little weirdo.
Apparently, this pup really wants to go outside. Or he saw a cat through the window and is dreaming of the chase. Either way, his solution was to make this unnerving face.
19. This is one for the history books.
If you don’t laugh at this giant dog sloshing his tongue around with his eyes crossed, I don’t know what to tell you. This is one goofy boy.
20. I can’t decide the best part of this.
Just imagine: you see your sweet little pug sitting on the floor. You decide to take a picture because he’s so cute! You look at your picture and see this bug-eyed little goober.
The best thing about this photo is how he’s literally fogged the window up with his dog breath. He must have been laying like that for a while, nose smashed and teeth sticking out.
22. I don’t have a comment for this one — I’m just laughing.
This epic wipeout is brought to you by mud, high speeds, and an overenthusiastic dog. I almost feel bad for the poor puppy.
23. I’m not sure how he feels about car rides.
Imagine trying to catch a cute photo of your puppy on a car ride together. You turn your camera around and capture …. What is this dog is doing in the backseat?
24. Not pictured: the electric socket he stuck his paw in.
The best part about this is that it appears to be a professional photo. Someone paid money to get a picture of their husky making this face.
25. This is uncontrollable excitement.
Have you ever wondered what a pug would look if it was at the absolute limit of its excitement? Probably not, but here’s a picture so you can find out all the same.
26. I’m not sure who’s getting the worse deal here.
Cats aren’t always super attentive to their environment. This kitty decided it was time for a stretch right then and there. This one probably won’t be going into any albums.
27. She’s beauty, she’s grace.
Hairless cats get the short end of the stick when it comes to looks. It’s hard not to look goofy when you’re showing off every flap and fold.
This cat got caught in a moment that was a little too close for comfort. This is a magnificent result. Doesn’t he look absolutely majestic?
29. Surveying his territory like the king he is.
Just imagine walking down the street, enjoying the view, then seeing this little weirdo watching you from a window.
30. Fluffy and a little bit evil
Due to their extreme flexibility, cats often get into the oddest possible poses. For example, this cat looks like it doesn’t have a nose.
