When the baby field mouse she was raising finally opened his eyes, YouTube user Connie Smith decided to forgo the stereotypical “mouse and cookie” scenario. 

Imagine seeing THIS guy waiting for you as you come back from shoveling the front walk. He didn't even help. So rude – but then again, if you were the largest living rodent in the world, maybe you'd get off the hook for doing chores, too.

You'd think that when a chick gets into bed with a cat, disaster is imminent. But these two cuties restore our faith in animal-kind – and make us want to cuddle up with our natural born enemies.

If this is what it means to "fight like cats and dogs" then we don't see what the issue is. Maybe that phrase was meant to be taken as a compliment?

More inspiring than a Rocky montage. this video will make you stand up and cheer these pups on. Somewhere in the background, "Gonna Fly Now", plays, and bulldog babies take their very first steps.
