The joy of having pets is their unique way of showing love, often through unusual gifts like dead birds, mice, or more peculiar items like a deer leg or a stolen sausage. These quirky offerings, not always as pleasant as roses, remind us that with pets, it’s the thought that truly counts. Let’s begin!
She’s a retriever, not a genius.
If you keep tossing the ball, soon you’ll have enough for mashed potatoes. Perhaps this dog isn’t as silly as we thought!
“My dog brought me some dirt today.”
Indeed, he is a retriever! Just be careful not to drop anything suspicious if you ever get stopped by the police.
@ZeusTheNinja:
“I saw you left your plant behind, so I brought it back for you.”
“Last day at work. I think the office dog wants me to stay, he brought me all of his toys.”
Office dogs are adorable. They always bring the most charming presents, like a rope covered in doggy drool!
I bought you something.
Watch out for this charming little pup; it’s trying to capture your heart!
@plusran:
“Hey girl, this tummy ain’t gonna rub itself.”
“While I was drinking coffee this morning, my dog brought me this. I have no idea where it came from.”
Oh dear, your dog has turned into a cat-napper! As a punishment, you might consider having him change the kitty litter, but he’ll likely just end up eating it.
I hunted this from the BBQ next door for you.
If flowers don’t win your heart, perhaps this sausage will. Your adorable cat is showing great restraint by not eating it!
@hpstr-doofus:
“Lot quicker than a human. You would have to do a lot of small talk with your neighbor before getting free bbq.”
“This is Zoey’s pillow. If she likes you, she’ll bring you the pillow. You can’t touch it, but you can look.”
Notice the sly expression on her face! She definitely has this guy completely under her little paw’s control.
“Most cats bring dead animals to their loved ones, but NOT MY CAT!”
It seems your cat isn’t too picky, which might be a side effect of both of you living in a college dorm!
“My dog brings me things out of my toolbox randomly hoping it’ll be something I need. Sometimes, it works.”
Perhaps it’s time to reconsider the contents of your toolbox. How about filling it with beer and your remote control instead?
“My sister’s cat brought in another “dead” bird, or so they thought.”
Fortunately, this adorable little bird is still alive! Do you, by any chance, live close to Hogwarts?
“Friend is a new mom, today her dog brought her this.”
Hold on, is that all that remains of the little one? Naughty dog, very naughty!
“Meet Henry. He presents me with this toy mouse every morning claiming a successful nights work.”
Henry is incredibly adorable! It seems like he wants you to eat it right “meow.”
@widdershins13:
“Mine wake me up at 4:AM every morning by shoving their butts in my face.”
Golden retrievers are always on the job.
This lovely retriever doesn’t understand the concept of a day off. In need of a nap? Here’s a bed for you!
“My girlfriend’s Golden HAS to bring a gift to anyone who comes to the door. If she can’t find a toy, she’ll grab her whole bed and drag it across the house or pick up the shoe you just took off and give it back to you.”
“Threw my dog a ball and he brought me this lil guy instead.”
Aww, this little one is just beginning to emerge from his shell. Please don’t throw him back!
“He was jealous of his brother’s hunting skills so he ran outside and caught a leaf for me.”
You have to give him credit for his effort. However, it’s probably for the best that his hunting skills aren’t great. Otherwise, you might have ended up with a half-eaten bird or mouse!
“We’ve just got home and Charlie’s brought me a tenner…”
I have two questions for you: Can I borrow Charlie? And does he know how to count past ten?
“Not even a year old and my giant kitty is bringing me gifts. I’m a lucky mom.”
I’m such a wonderful kitty. I’ve got a sssssssurprise for you!
@thenothingnew:
“Its not a gift. I mean it still means she loves and cares about you, but when cats bring you things they’ve killed it’s because they think you dont know how to hunt, and they feel bad for you.”
“Our dog brings us random objects to welcome us when we come home.”
It doesn’t seem random at all. Your dog is fetching you boots and a warm hat so you can take her for a walk!
“3rd one my dog has brought back inside. We don’t have a garden. At least we didn’t think we did.”
Your dog is a master of the garden. He can tell when the vegetables are ripe and ready to be harvested.
“Your dog is performing a valuable public service for gardeners up to their eyeballs in cucumbers and zucchini this time of year.”
“What my dog so thoughtfully brought to me after rolling around in the mud at the park…”
Oops! That suggests there’s someone out there still rolling around in the mud, searching for what your dog has taken.
“My cat found an unattended cracker and brought it to me so I could hold it for her while she eats it.”
Alright human, could you hold this cracker for me? I’d like to delicately nibble on it, as befits a princess like myself.
@GoAwayLurkin:
“Hey Opposable -Thumbs, make yourself useful.”
I fear for the birthday girl or boy.
The cat devoured all the evidence, leaving behind only this solitary, deflated balloon.
“Instead of a dead bird or mouse, my cat decides to bring us gifts of leaves. She’s been doing this for years.”
It seems your cat is hinting for you to whip up a green smoothie. He must be one of those vegan cats.
“Our cat won’t stop bringing home sponges!”
How many sponges must I present to you, human, before you understand? Please clean my dirty water bowl!
“Found this old pupper wandering the streets and I returned him to his home, he brought me his ducky as a thank you.”
You’re quite the fortunate one! Not everyone has a kind neighbor who brings over hand-selected presents.
@abovetheabyss24:
“Uh oh..looks like he’s moving his stuff over to your place…one toy at a time!”
“So my dog brought home a fawn the other day.”
Was this the moment you discovered your dog is like a Disney princess? If a Dalmatian is the next buddy to appear on your lawn, you might soon have 101 new friends to play with!
“He likes to hunt leaves.”
Observe the look in his eyes! It’s as if he’s inquiring whether you appreciate the special leaf he carefully selected just for you.
@Szos:
“Cats that go after birds and squirrels are hunters. This is a gatherer.”
“Our black cat brings us the occasional bird as a present. Then there’s this doof. (We don’t own a badminton set.)”
It flies and kind of has feathers. Did I get it right, mom?
@TooShiftyForYou:
“Maybe the cat is just making an amusing pun here.”
“Some dogs bring back balls, frisbees or sticks… Jack brought me a pigeon. A fkn pigeon!!! LOL”
Observe poor Jack, appearing so downcast by the table. It seems he wants his pet bird returned.
“My dog brought an onion home…”
Perhaps he was attempting something drastic. Onions are poisonous to dogs!
“My cat constantly brings me lil gifts and he’s always bringing Beatles but this time it was two.”
Your cat must really love The Beatles. Now all you need are two more to reunite the band!
“My dog brought me a big present this morning.
Oh deer! It looks like your dog might have just unearthed Bambi’s mother.
@imusingtechnology:
“My parents live out in the country, and their dogs do this on a regular basis. It’s the worst when deer are in season. Their yard looks like a deer-version of the elephant graveyard from the lion king.”
“My dog, Aspen always grabs things out of the pantry and brings them to us with this face.”
So, I was thinking, how about hamburgers for dinner tonight? You cook, and I’ll eat. Deal?
@thehungryplatypus:
“Woah It’s a pure bread retriever.”
Look at what my cat brought me this morning.”
Aww, it’s an actual living squeaky toy! Your cat truly excels at giving the most wonderful presents.
“My cat keeps bringing a candy cane to my door FFS Ted Christmas is over, let it go.”
Alas, Ted! His human doesn’t seem to value his attempts to bring constant joy to her home.
“My dog found a baby rabbit this morning.”
While some dogs excel at retrieving flowers and duct tape, this playful pooch is a pro at fetching his new furry best friend!
“My niece was playing with Mr. Potato head – my dog wanted to play fetch, so he brought me what he found.”
Your dog takes the prize in this round of the Kylie Jenner challenge. His lips look so plastic and artificial!
@The_Painted_Man:
“Looks just like my ex-girlfriend. Same lipstick, ears and collar, and all.”
My mighty hunter brought me her trophy.”
While some cats are kind enough to fetch their owners flowers, this one didn’t bother hunting for pretty things, so he brought his human a used toy instead.
“Didn’t know we had turtles in our backyard until we got Louie – he brings one to the porch every few weeks.”
While some cats are sweet enough to bring their owners flowers, this particular feline didn’t go searching for beautiful items; instead, it decided to gift its human a well-loved toy.
“What do you mean you don’t like my gift??”
Have you ever experienced those moments when you make an effort to conceal your disappointment upon unwrapping a gift? That’s precisely why I prefer to wait until I’m back home before opening presents!
“My cat just brought this little guy home… I guess I have a new pet.”
I believe you may have misunderstood his intentions. Your clever kitty is anticipating a delicious dinner from you once this little one grows up!
“My dog gets so excited when she brings me a gift.”
Did you happen to adopt your dog from an unusual group? It might be a good idea to secure your bedroom door at night; you never know whose skull could be the next addition!
@CharIieBroson:
“For context: I collect and clean a lot of animal skulls as a hobby. When Kaya get bored, she goes into the woods, finds my stash of skulls and bring me one. She never harms them, just places them around the driveway where she knows I’ll find them.”
“My cat brings me gifts, she has strange taste for gifts.”
It seems like she’s attempting to convey something to you. Perhaps your task for the day is to crochet her a cozy kitty sweater!
“My dog brought me my hat on a sunny day.”
What a well-behaved dog! If he brings you a beer and your Bluetooth speaker, then he’s definitely a keeper.
“She brought me a marshmallow.”
Smart dog! It seems she’s suggesting you indulge in some S’mores to deter any thoughts of roasting hot dogs over the campfire.
“I hear cats bring dead birds as gifts…. by puppy brings me rocks. Rocks.”
Absolutely, everyone begins somewhere. Perhaps one day, he’ll advance to gifting you rocks crafted from rubies, emeralds, and diamonds!
“My dog brought a potato to bed this morning.”
Now could be an opportune moment to teach him how to fetch a juicy ribeye. It would pair wonderfully with this baked potato for lunch!
“My cat brought me the gift of Moth in a color I’ve never seen in 38 years.”
Your cat and dog are watching that moth as if they expect it to come back to life! Perhaps that’s why your kitty made sure to deliver it to you intact. They’re eager to chase it when it becomes active again.
“Hummingbird, my cat brought it upstairs… Alive and well.”
Your kitty must possess ninja-like superpowers! I can’t even glance at a hummingbird before it zips away. They are incredibly fast!
“So my dog brought me a gift as we were leaving the farm today.”
Your pup seems genuinely proud of his accomplishments! But, how can you say “good boy” without cracking a smile when you really just want to gag?
“My cat often brings me gifts in the morning. Today some blue yarn she hunted down in the living room.”
Mom, would you mind crafting us matching blue sweaters? That would allow us to cuddle up like this every morning!
