Having a rough day? I don’t have advice… but I do have a baby badger. Yes, you heard that right. A baby badger. Too young to be dangerous. Too cute to be scary. He’s the perfect mix of confusion and cuteness.

This little fella was found abandoned and is probably having a harder day than you. But he can help it if he’s adorable and makes you smile.

Sometimes, all we need is a moment of unexpected joy—and this little dirt covered fluffball delivers. Whether you’re stress-scrolling or just need a quick smile, this is your dose of instant mood-lift.

And don’t worry, he is now lounging it up at a relaxing rescue where there will never be any question where his next meal will come from. A victory in our books.
