Because apparently, it's not only us who get our blood up to a boiling temperature from time to time. Most times, pets become stressed when they catch their owners dealing with stressful situations too. Your cat is more likely to get itself into trouble when it's lacking attention, and dogs put on sad faces when their owners are in distress. Scroll down below to find out what a REALLY bad day looks like, and just be glad you aren't one of these people! Or maybe you'll find them so relatable that you'll name them the Story of My Life.
However if this series won't be enough to better your day, check out the hilarious photos from part one here. So get some popcorn ready 'cause you're about to see what a bad day looks like in the animal kingdom. And trust me, just because they don't have keys to fall into a drain hole doesn't mean they have it easier.
According to Karen Johnson, doctor of veterinary medicine and the co-founder ofVIP Vet Visit, every pet handles stress differently. Pet owners can make these situations easier by understanding their pet's behavior and needs during stressful times. With its simple, wholesome tales of ornery animals and feel-good photo projects, Bored Panda has flourished by sidestepping the outrage. So get some popcorn ready 'cause you're about to see what a bad day looks like in the animal kingdom. And trust me, just because they don't have keys to fall into a drain hole doesn't mean they have it easier.
But what hasn't been chronicled that well is animals going through a rough day, and we are about to change that. Our beloved furry companions have vile days too and they're just as painfully funny. Squirrels, horses, doggos, they've all had their fair share of 24 hours turned nightmare. But there are people and in this case, animals, who could have a far worse day than ours.
That's why we shouldn't lose all hopes when we're late for work, spill coffee on our white shirts, or miss the bus. These things could happen to anyone. For those who are dealing with even more severe worst day situations, please get an extra dose of others' misfortune on our previous posts here, here, and here.
And remember that at its worst, a bad day can only last up to 24 hours. Squirrels, horses, doggos, they've all had their fair share of 24 hours turned nightmare. There are days when it feels like the world is going against you. You're late for work, and the keys have just fallen into the drain hole.
But day-breaking fails have been well documented in the history of humankind, and there's a silent agreement not to talk about 'em too much. According to Johnson, the most common signs of stress in pets include behaviors such as whining, hiding, panting, pacing, shaking, lip licking, yawning, and shedding. She explains that the best way to deal with it is to remain calm yourself. A relaxed outward demeanor would reassure your pet of its safety and comfort, and it also allows you to figure out what the trigger could be.
However, humans aren't the only ones who have to deal with upsetting days. Animals have their fair share too, and in their case, they don't always understand what's going on or how to process it. This may sound weird, but animals go through even worse situations than us. Dogs, cats, birds, horses, hamsters, and squirrels — they all have those awful days too.
Articles like "Creative Dad Takes Crazy Photos of Daughters" went viral, racking up 5 million views.

Around that time he decided to let the artists he was writing about tell their own stories. As other viral publishers succumb to Facebook's algorithm changes, Bored Panda thrives with a mix of photos, animal stories, and funny lists.

You'll definitely believe what happened next. The format quickly devolved into a cringe-inducing punchline. In response, Facebook tweaked the algorithm that determines which stories appear in its News Feed, and traffic to most viral publishers plummeted.
Some sold, others changed strategies, others folded. Now, the easiest way to go viral on Facebook is with political news designed to provoke outrage and fear. Get popcorn ready 'cause you're about to see what a bad day looks like in the animal kingdom. I was born with a congenital spine defect and now have a degenerative spine condition as well. My husband hates the work he's doing and wants to do something else but at least he's not redundant.
Try not to clobber them with any walking aids you might have about you - that's what I try to do at least. Some people are genuine - you'll easily spot the ones that are as they tend to moan the least. Good luck with your spine problem and I hope your SO gets an even better job.

Imagine if your pet saw you reacting like the world is turning against you after your car keys got into the drain hole—chances are, he would be stressed out too. Those days where everything seems to be working specifically against you, and it starts to get pretty scary at some point. You wake up with a pounding head on a Monday morning, twenty minutes late for work and the water's not running. When you manage to get it fixed, your car decides to have a beef with you straight up. You jump that hurdle and then drop into traffic that can rival China's busiest roads.
You finally get to work and get chewed out for being a late mess. Somehow, you also managed to forget your presentation at home. A bird poops on you at lunch, you end up logging extra hours for being late, and finally, you get home to an empty kitchen.
Bored Panda had more than three times as many engagements per post as its closest competitor, conservative news site Daily Wire. In total engagements, Bored Panda ranked second only to Foxnews.com, and ahead of major news organizations like NBC, the Daily Mail, the New York Times, and CNN. That is, unless you are the one viral publisher that has defied the algorithm and thrived. Against all odds, Bored Panda, a blog started by a Lithuanian photographer in 2009, remains among the top publishers on Facebook.
As its competition has faded, Bored Panda's growth has accelerated. In October, Bored Panda says it hit 116 million unique visitors, up from an average of 17 million per month last year. The company pays to promote some stories, though it attributes much of the recent growth to organic traffic. The internet is filled with snaps of cats and dogs doing adorable things, but as these pictures show, sometimes our furry friends find themselves stuck in some very unfortunate situations.

This reminds me of the year when we all gathered at my grandma's for Christmas. The first day the kids came running telling us there was a "river" running from one of a wall in the basement. Most of us thought they were playing, but grandpa went to have a look. A pipe had frozen and the basement was filling up. A storm with heavy snow passed that night and the whole area lost electricity as well as phone contact. The roads where blocked and we could not leave until two days later.
Now imagine how bad days farm animals in factory farms and in the slaughterhouses have when you have them on your dinner plates.

At the time, Banišauskas was a freelance photographer for weddings and TV commercials. He was more interested in the visual arts than online business models, so he created blogs around art, advertising, and architecture. The visual content got a strong response; in one month his sites collectively garnered around a million visitors.
That led him to strike out on his own, creating Bored Panda, a blog dedicated to fighting boredom with art and positive stories, from his Vilnius, Lithuania, flat in 2009.

Spilling your takeaway coffee on a blouse is one, getting a call you didn't expect is another, and the list goes on. Luckily, there's one band-aid known to humanity that eases this pain. And it's knowing that someone out there is going through a wayyy worse day.

After eight years where Bored Panda has been Banišauskas' baby, he's trying to stop working 13-hour days and micromanaging. Calling from a "working vacation" in Spain, he says he's learning to delegate and find some balance.

In fact, he says Bored Panda experienced a traffic boost with each algorithm change. "I think the others were losing that traffic and we were getting it," he says.
On average, Bored Panda's Facebook posts generate more likes, shares, and other reactions than any other English-language news site, including CNN, NBC News, and the New York Times.
