I’ll admit it. I love otters. If seals are the puppies of the sea, otters are the puppies of the river… and also sometimes of the sea. (Actual puppies? The puppies of the land. Duh.) After that intro, I bet you will have no trouble guessing today’s theme…
- Your punny pet name for this week: Beatrix Otter.
- This link reminded me of The Fox and the Hound (except for the fact that the link didn’t make me cry). Check out this adorable otter and puppy playing together.
- Um, I had no idea otters were so talented. I can’t juggle, but this otter can.
- This baby otter having lunch is awesome. (I’m extremely jealous of the guy who introduced himself to the otter as “Uncle Kevin.” I want to be an otter aunt!)
- I bet this little girl will grow up to be an otter aunt someday.
- I would like to apply for citizenship of Otter Nation (currently ruled by Sir Otter the Brave, I hear). Maybe that would improve my chances of being an otter aunt.
- If that’s too much to ask, can I just get invited to this guy’s next sleepotter? (I’m going for a sleepover pun here… I doubt it really worked, but I’m sticking with it.)
- I could watch this trio of otters all day. Or this group of otters chasing a butterfly. I’m flexible.
I have to admit, I had quite the debate with myself over which video to feature today. (I’ll leave it to your imagination whether that debate was out loud or simply between the voices in my head.) Anyway, this was the winner (via Best Week Ever):
It’s like he’s staring into my soul and sending cute rays right into my heart.
Want more otters? You’re in luck. I have one more link to share. It’s time for everyone’s favorite game show: Dog… or… Otter? Enjoy!
Okay, Ms. A.J. — pop quiz: In Harry Potter, whose patronus is an otter???

Hermione! 🙂
Loads of cuteness here. But I’m a little concerned that Bella will worry that you’re looking for a new significant otter. 🙂

Well played, Pamela. Well, played. 🙂
Is that your significant otter? Love it!
I would not be at all opposed to having a significant otter!
Okay, no puns here 🙂
I still have a grin on my face and am having an extended awww moment. Is it possible to feel maternal over an otter pup? And why do human babies never affect me this way? I am otterly confused.
Oops.

I’m the same way sometimes!
Also, I’m glad to see you embraced the pun in the end. It’s really something you otter do.
I would also love to have a significant otter (too funny, btw). They are SO cute. They are my fave thing at the zoo – in SD, they have this enclosure w/ this certain type of little monkey (I forget what they are, but they are small – almost otter sized) in w/ the otters. We can stand there and watch them for ages. They have a river and sometimes the monkeys play w/ the otters and even dive in and swim with them. SO FREAKIN’ CUTE.
We are members so we go there a lot. In fact, we otter go there real soon! 😛

You really otter. 😉
I’ve never seen monkeys and otters playing together before – too cute!
I am otterly infatuated with these little scamps. When I was a kid, there was this big otter exhibit right at the front of our zoo/aquarium in Stanley Paek in Vancouver. My Mom always felt like the trp was a waste of money because as soon as I saw the otters, I would plant my butt there and watch them all day. They had a slide and a tire swing. That was my happy place :0) (also, loooooooove the one otter named Kevin. Cracked me up!)

Doesn’t sound like a waste to me. Sounds awesome!
So much cuteness in one place! I adore that video with the little girl. How you find all these things at once amazes me!
