I don't know about you, but we've had kind of a stressful day here in the office. What better way to help deal with that stress than kicking back with a seven-minute supercut of super cute animals doing super cute things set to nice soft music. This video runs the fun range of Internet animal cuteness from a yawning sloth, to a baby owl being petted, to a little raccoon doing little raccoon things with its little raccoon hands. This video pairs well with a warm cup of tea and footie pajamas.

There's always been something I didn't trust about raccoons. Maybe it's the fact that they're scavengers who have knocked over more of my garbage cans than I care to recall. Or maybe it's just their beady, criminal eyes resting in the domino-masks that denote them as nature's criminals. Whatever the reason, all my suspicions about raccoons were confirmed this morning when news broke that a pair of raccoons -- who are probably terrorists -- have taken over a tower crane in Seattle, scaring off workers and hamstringing construction work on a new apartment complex.
