20 Animals Whose Day Just Took A Turn For The Worse

By Caitlyn Clancey, Diply

Despite what we might believe, bad days aren't exclusive to us humans. Animals are just as likely to have some not-so-good days that probably make them want to go back to bed and start all over again.

To show those down-on-their-luck members of the animal kingdom some appreciation, we've collected a few snapshots of those bad days in action. Some will make you feel sympathetic for the poor little creature going through a tough time, while others just might make you chuckle.

But for the most part, I'm sure you'll catch yourself saying "Same, buddy, same." Because we've definitely all been there before.

1. "And then...and then there was all this snow."

When this kitty getting ready to bolt out the front door for one of its daily adventures outside, it definitely wasn't expecting to run directly into a wall of snow.

But that's exactly what happened, and the utter shock of that experience clearly hasn't worn off yet.

2. "Halp."

I'm no expert, but I think it's safe to say it was this trash panda's first day on the job.

How else do you explain him wedging himself inside the itty-bitty hole of a recycling bin? A rookie mistake if I've ever seen one.

3. Step siblings don't always see eye to eye.

Apparently this owner's boyfriend doesn't believe his cat bullies theirs. But it's going to be pretty hard to keep on denying that once he's seen this picture.

Break it up, fellas! You're family now.

4. "Bad boy, bad boy, whatcha gonna do?"

This trouble maker had the police called on him because he ran away from home to torment some local deer. But hopefully a quick trip downtown will set him straight.

5. "Do you think this is funny?"

This cat is not a fan of tomfoolery, and would appreciate it if you would stop snapping pics of him licking this picture, please and thank you.

6. "I bet you're wondering how I got here."

Okay, this one's a bit of a wild ride but this turtle's owner thinks they have a good idea of what happened here:

"Putting the clues together, it seems he pooped, got it stuck on his foot, ran in circles trying to get it off, and flipped over. Good job buddy."

7. This is why you never buy from Craigslist.

Only intending to purchase a second-hand couch, this person got way more than they bargained for when they heard noises coming from inside of it. Upon cutting it open, they discovered their bargain couch came with a surprise kitty inside.

And it definitely doesn't look happy to have been part of a two-for-one deal.

8. Playtime is over.

This sweet dachshund was only trying to have some fun when it inexplicably got itself stuck between the couch cushions.

The photo of this moment really adds to what I can only imagine was already plenty of shame and regret.

9. Don't worry, an old priest and a young priest are on their way.

I'm not entirely sure what the context is behind this demonic-looking cat snap, but I suspect this kitty was expertly scaling a precarious height (such as a coffee table), when it suddenly slipped and fell.

Thankfully, owners are almost always nearby with their phones, ready to snap a hilarious pic of their pet's mistakes.

10. Babysitting really comes at a price.

This dalmatian left its babysitting gig with a bit more color than he had going into it. But at least the kiddos were entertained for awhile.

Now, unfortunately, that means it's bath time for everyone...

11. "I've made a terrible mistake."

Look, if you're going to put yourself in these kinds of positions, you better be prepared to get yourself back out of them again.

This kitty didn't think that far ahead, and needed his owners to come rescue him, earning him the well-deserved title of "idiot."

12. Speaking of rescue missions...

This Reddit user explained,

"Somehow our dog opened the upstairs screen door and ended up following our cat onto the roof. He required consoling before coming back inside."

13. "I think a squirrel fell off my roof..."

Well, that's definitely one explanation for this bizarre sight. Personally, I'd like to think this animal had a brief moment where he believed every squirrel can be a flying squirrel if they try hard enough...

And then quickly learned how wrong he really was.

14. The look of utter betrayal.

This managed to capture the exact moment their dog lost all trust in them when they had the audacity to save the last bite of their burger for themselves.

You just can't recover from that kind of hurt.

15. Big dog meets even bigger dog.

This Reddit user explained their pittie had grown pretty accustomed to being the biggest dog at the dog park. Then, of course, this enormous fella showed up and changed everything.

Are we positive that's not a bison, though?

16. Ralph hates Fourth of July.

This sweet pup doesn't appreciate fireworks going off outside his home, and as soon as he hears them he has to get as close to his owner as possible, even if that means climbing into the bath with her.

17. Tattle-tail.

As this owner of two bickering siblings explained,

"Sarah (dog) stole a bite of Stella's food and Stella came running to me in the kitchen to literally bitch about it."

18. Well now this one just breaks my heart.

After this Reddit user chopped down a tree in their front yard, they were treated to this absolutely devastating sight of a squirrel looking utterly lost on what was left of his home.

19. "Ding dong."

After hours of searching for their runaway dog, this owner came home and was treated to the sight of that very pup peering in through their front door.

Yes, this dog is having a very bad day. But in about 0.5 seconds, I'm sure it got infinitely better.

20. "Used the wrong shampoo."

Dog owner Camille Joy Villanueva shared this photo of the pup on Facebook and revealed her uncle thought he was just using ordinary shampoo.

Of course, he very quickly realized he'd made a pretty big mistake. Thankfully, the dye was safe and totally washable. Phew!
