Fact: Every bowl is super when there's ice cream in it.

Not a football fan? Looking for alternatives to the Super Bowl? You're in luck, with Puppy Bowl! This year's Puppy Bowl IX will be streamed Sunday on the Animal Planet web site. You can get behind-the-scenes footage of the unbearable cuteness before the big game day, however. Meet the players! Don't miss the Kitty Halftime Show! Of course, such a major annual sporting event needs cheerleaders! Past cheerleading squads have included the Rabbits , Pigs, Chickens, and now, Hedgehogs! No major national sporting even is complete without a touching hedgehog-interest story. And, for your convenience, live tweeting (almost literally). What, you ask, is this assemblage of cheerleaders doing in a cute pet event? Pigs as pets. Pet chickens. Hedgies!

Marc Morrone is a pet shop owner from the Bronx who spun a small cable-access show about pet care into a Martha Stewart Omnimedia-backed pet-advice career. But he first became known for his call-in show in which he gave advice while surrounded by a menagerie of moving, falling, pooping animals.

MASS HYSTERIA

"About six weeks ago at a zoo in Sochi, Russia, an Amur tiger - one of the rarest tigers on the planet - gave birth to a pair of cubs. The zoo, of course, was thrilled, but its joy soon faded - the mother wouldn't feed her babies. Fortunately, the zoo found a woman, Yekaterina Khodakova, whose Shar Pei Cleopatra had recently had a litter of puppies. Cleopatra immediately accepted the tiger cubs as her own, and began nursing them. Now the Amur cubs, dubbed Clyopa and Plyusha, think they're dogs."

The paper training video is slightly less heartwarming

Puppies are everywhere

Recently a puppy webcam became so incredibly popular online that it caught the attention of the mainstream media. There was a This American Life story a few years ago about a guy (Bob FitzSimons) who had an idea for a 24-hour all-puppies-all-the-time tv channel that was short-lived on cable and just didn't work out. The story of his idea doesn't end there though. The Puppy Channel is now online. If you caught the NPR story, you might remember a theme song that Bob FitzSimons wrote, "Puppies Are Everywhere." It's up on the website along with other puppy-themed original music.

Awww-Filter: Tattooed bikers, puppies, and tiny kittens. What's not to love? The New York Times goes for a ride-along with Rescue Ink, complete with awww-inducing slideshow. You can see them on YouTube, too: TV news clip; MFA thesis clip; another thesis clip; visit to the shelter. More media clips available on their website. As the article mentions, and the website suggests, they have been focusing on branding along with the animal rescue — is a reality TV show next?

Putting puppies in prison

CunningLinguist — Wed, 07 Nov 2007 18:54:03 -0800

"Puppies Behind Bars" gives cute lil pups to hardened prison inmates, who train them to eventually be guide dogs and police bomb sniffers. The puppies teach the convicts as much, if not more. Being responsible 24/7 for a dog can turn the most hardened criminal's life around. "This is my way of doing something to reparate," says one murderer. Some say it's their first taste of unconditional love. "The strongest guy in here's going to get that lump in his throat," says an inmate. The dogs get weekend furloughs to NYC so they can get used to city streets. No convict who trained a puppy has gone back to prison after being paroled.

OMG LOOK PUPPIES!!!!eleventy!1!

Meet the TSA's newest, cuddliest employees! Sure, the TSA could spend its time and money developing a training course that won't result in a stunning 91% rate of failure in detecting weapons in carry-on luggage, but how do you make cute pictures out of that?
