Fifteen Thankful Animals

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

As Thanksgiving approaches, most of us are excited to stuff ourselves with turkey, cranberry sauce, and your mom’s delicious mashed potatoes. Yet let’s not forget that besides eating an embarrassingly large amount of food, Thanksgiving is also a time to reflect on what you have and what you are thankful for. Therefore, I present to you adorable animals that might help us remember the true purpose of Thanksgiving. Here is what they are thankful for, as told from their perspectives.

  • Muah! I’m thankful for my hubby!

 

  • I’m thankful for my fuzzy, warm hat… and Photoshop. 
  • Zzz… we’re thankful for naptime. Best time of the day!
  • I’m thankful for my fabulous feet. Face it, they’ll always be better than yours.
  • We…are… SO thankful… for the… opportunity… to be clean… grr…

  • BALLOONS!! I’M SO THANKFUL FOR THIS AWESOME BALLOON.
  • I’m quite thankful for all of the knowledge I was able to acquire throughout my years, and I hope to share my intelligence with others.
  • It’s got to be Happy Hour somewhere! We’re thankful for our drinks that get us through the day.
  • We are so thankful for our colorful sweaters… and each other! Look how cute we are together!

  • We’re thankful for the game of Tetris.
  • May the force be with you! I’m thankful for Master Yoda and all of the Jedi skills he has taught me.
  • I’m thankful for all of my band buddies and the music we create together!
  • This one’s for the ladies. I’m thankful for all of you!
  • Everybody was Kung Fu Fighting… I’m thankful for the opportunity to protect my brothers!
  • We’re thankful for EVERYTHING and ALL OF YOU!! May you find happiness in your lives!!

 

What can we learn from these animals? Let’s not forget to be thankful for everything we already have…

 

…and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
