Summer is ending, we’re all pouring our money into tuition and textbooks, and goshdarnit, I think we deserve a moment of wholesome comfort. To brighten your day as the days get dark, we’ve all chosen our favourite pet pictures to share with the world. 

  1.  Bellatrix Lecat

Unlike her nefarious namesake, Bella’s favourite things were sleeping, eating, chasing laser pointers, eating, and sleeping.

2. Malteser AKA Molly

Sweet as her name and always having just woken up from a nap, Malteser is a 12-year-old kitten that will yell until someone holds her up to a window or puts their forehead against hers.

3. Tianna

Tianna is a 3-year-old rescue from Mexico. Her passions include protecting her family, eating popcorn, and playing with her favourite toy: an old pair of pants.

4. Beezus  

Beezus, also known as Meine Malone, is 5 years old and loves food. She constantly lives in slow motion so it can be dull watching her, but her cuteness makes up for everything. She is a masterful bird watcher and an aspiring bird catcher. Loves any comfortable surface and a nice deep sleep. Also loves to sabotage Christmas.

There you have it: HC UVic’s Best Pets. Hopefully, your heart has been warmed and you’re all ready to get out there and face the rest of the week.

Make sure to comment pictures of your pets to keep the happiness going!

When she isn't writing for Her Campus or burning her eyes from staring at a screenplay that just isn't working, she's probably at home playing video games, watching movies (it's technically homework, she's studying them) or mindlessly scrolling through her TikTok feed.
