Smile! Some Pictures to Brighten Your Day

While happiness and general life satisfaction are associated with better health and longevity, there is plenty of proof that laughter per se can provide similar benefits.

For example, Japanese researchers showed that patients with type 2 diabetes had significantly smaller spikes in blood sugar after a meal when watching a popular comedy show compared to listening to a boring lecture.

With that in mind, consider these hilarious pictures your daily dose of 100 percent pure, unadulterated laughter medicine.

If a cat and a dog are raised together they often become good buddies. For instance puppies have a vital socialisation period that lasts from about 3 to 16 weeks old. They will bond and socialise easily with animals they are in contact with during this period. It is very important to give your young puppy a lot of exposure to a variety of situations during this period if you want a pet that easily adaptable and fits in to modern society.

Humor always makes the day better. So do animals, in my humble opinion...
     and my big yard protecting dogs are afraid of cats! Guess they learned about those claws and remembered it well.
 Thanks for the smiles, and please don't stop including them!

Now where is that disclaimer that NO humans were harmed/injured during the setting up of these pictures?

Whatever...

They raised a smile... thanks Doc!
