Would the internet even be worth going on if it wasn’t for cute things to look at? I’m pretty sure that the internet as we know it is built on a foundation of parents who want to share all the life moments of their kids, very good dogs doing very good dog things, and Grumpy Cat.
But there are other cute animals out there that deserve some attention, too. For example, donkeys. Who even knew they could be this cute?
