    1 of 10

    Being forced to take a photo with your family is always uncomfortable, with the cheesy poses, dorky matching outfits and forced smiles. When you throw a pet in the mix with a family-filled holiday, things get even more awkward. Click through to see some of the snazzy pics Awkward Family Pet Photos has dug up, but don't let your mom see or else she might get some "good ideas." And don't forget to check out their new iPhone app.


    OLD MAN RACCOON

    There's always that one member of the family who steals the good chair in the living room after dinner.

    FAMILY AFFAIR 

    "This is a photo of my family and its menagerie (ferret, snake, cat, dog), circa 1985. Less than a year later, we added a pig to the mix. Our childhood also included, at various points, a goat, raccoons, iguanas, chameleons, ponies, mice, rats, too many small lizards to count and at least one bird that was killed by a ferret." — Young Jebediah Smith
