Alright, so technically they’re not. But populus, the Latin source of the word people, means “multitude,” and there are certainly a multitude of them (far more than there are humans). And more importantly, animals are every bit as expressive and distinct in their personalities as humans. No one should need proof of that, but here’s proof anyway. Enjoy, and have a great weekend, fellow humans and other people!

Such a charming post and one I was so glad to see. There’s a sheep in the paddock at the end of our garden and I think he must have done something to one of his legs because he was limping. I was so worried, I watched him/her every day and didn’t rest until the limp eased, so thank you for reminding us about the animals.
Gwen.
My pleasure, Gwen.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this. I totally agree. My fur babies are my children.
I like some animals better than I like some people…
Really nice pictures of animals Mitch I enjoyed going through them. Have a great weekend!
Thanks, Cora!
You are very welcomed!
Aww These are so great! That puppy spooning that cat is the best 😁❤️
These photos are precious! That orangutan with the man cracks me up!
I agree that animals are people too, Mitch. The photos made my day because there is nothing cuter than the sweet faces of animals, especially when they’re smiling. Now, I think I need a baby hippo!
Love them. How on earth did you ever compile all this?!
I use a magical device called a search engine Susan. ;>)
I know! But the time!
True that, Susan. I put more time into my Tuesday memoir posts and Friday photoblogs than any others.
These are great pictures of endearing subjects perfectly timed. Thanks, for posting them, Mitch.
My pleasure, Nancy.
Love them! Thanks for sharing.
That kitty is sleeping on this doggie. 😍
You had me at the hamster.
;>)
Awwww! 🥰
Awwwww … I LOVE them all!!! I’ll let you in on a little secret … I like animals far better than I like humans these days, for the most part.
100% Agree! Our furry friends may be angels here to teach us to be better humans.
Awww. I love these. God’s creation is so amazing.
It is indeed, Linda.
That’s why everyone keeps dog as their favourite pet.👏Have a great day ahead 🎉 always
Thank you, Ramani.
Every picture you shared was just a stunning one.
Mitch, you’ve made my day with these lovely people!
I had to share a few of these. Hope you understand 😂❤️
Have a great weekend! ☀️🌼
Thanks, Katherine!
In my humble opinion, which nowadays I’m afraid counts for nothing, this is your best post selected from many very good ones.
I needed this! Thanks for fetching these photos
My pleasure, Jacob.
What a pleasure with my morning coffee! I have to wonder, who’s standing by with a camera to snap these precious sights?
Creation – what a gift from God to us! Thank you Mitch for posting. 😃
great photos! Animals are the best!

Exactly
Chaplin: “Vizsla puppy! We see a vizsla puppy!”
Charlee: “Hard to imagine our angel brother Dennis ever being that small, isn’t it? He was always so much bigger than us.”
Chaplin: “But he still needed us to look out for him after Tucker and Trixie were gone. Everyone needs a cat on their side. Even a dog!”
Love ’em. One of my wife’s favorite sites–and mine–is https://www.comedywildlifephoto.com/gallery/comedy-wildlife-2022-competition-winners.php
Fun photos, Keith. I particularly like the little duck walking across the turtles.
Loved it to bits ❤️💕
Love this post!! Thank you for sharing it!
My pleasure, Ellen!

Its a very famous saying that one can know about the country’s culture by seeing that how the people of that country treat women and animals
And a very wise saying it is, my friend.
