If your Instagram feed is being inundated with contrived selfies and pics of not-so-appetizing food, there's a simple solution to bring things back to the ridiculously cute side of social media—animals! And while dogs and cats may rule the park, these (sometimes) furry friends will still spruce up your feed with adorable-ness. Get following!
Joe Joe the Capybara
Joe Joe lives the Las Vegas life! One of the world's largest rodents, this capybara has many friends from the animal kingdom (ducks, dogs and cats) and is happy to go for a dip in the pool or nibbling on grass and celery.

Wally the rabbit
An English Angora rabbit from Natick, Massachusetts, Wally rocks a mohawk better than most humans, and naturally he loves to hop, jump and even face flop (so cute!) for his owner Molly.

Juniper the fox
With close to 1 million followers, Juniper is a certified Insta-star. She is a domesticated little fox (this is rare and foxes are very hard to train!), who likes to play with her brother Moose, loves rides in the car and has her own merch (think t-shirts and paw paintings) up on Etsy.

Pumpkin the Raccoon
Living the life in the Bahamas would be the stuff of dreams for many Canadians.

She now lives the life with her siblings Toffee and Oreo and even has her own coffee table book.

Cecil Delevingne

Jill the squirrel
This fierce female is a survivor of Hurricane Isaac who commands an audience of over 350 thousand followers with her parkour skills. She does, however, hate the vacuum, so take note.
