We love animals. And we understand the desire to take them everywhere. We put our cats in carriers and our dogs in bags. But we've never known anyone to carry her pet around in her bra -- until now.

In what is one of the most bizarre news stories in recent weeks, Cara the marmoset caused a stir when she was spotted in the Amherst County Courthouse in Virginia, reports the Lynchburg Virginia News and Advance. The little monkey is just 7 weeks old, so her owner didn't want to leave her at home while she ran to the courthouse to fill out some forms. As you'll see in the video below, Donna Bruce decided the easiest thing to do was stick her baby in her bra.

If anybody's got a case of dance fever, it's this brown goat. Possibly the cutest barnyard animal ever, this little thing goes hip-hop-to-the-hip-hip-hippity-hop like a billy goat going berserk on the dance floor.

The man with the moves is a 3-week-old orphan Nubian goat who wants nothing more than to please his new mama by showing her that he's paying attention to her fancy footwork.

In the Gobi Desert lives an endangered long-eared jerboa who hops around like a kangaroo but is the size of a mouse. The Zoological Society of London is paying close attention to this footage because of the threat of the species becoming extinct.

We are paying close attention to this footage because we want the jerboa to survive. And, well, we want the jerboa. Want, want, want so bad. His ears! His tail! That bounce! Check out the video. We are sure you'll agree.

Seldom does a video featuring interspecies love pass us by without at least, a big, "Awwwww." Today is no different, as we present to you a funny animal video of a pony cleaning a cat. With its tongue.

You already thought you were having a great day, right? Let's turn it up to eleven.

Check out other interspecies love stories at Paw Nation and great human love stories and advice at MyDaily.

This adorable 348-pound male elephant arrived at the Houston Zoo's McNair Asian Elephant Habitat earlier this year. Named Baylor by the Zoo's elephant care team (in recognition of advances made by the Baylor College of Medicine to wipe out certain elephant specific viruses), video emerged of the adorable little guy making a splash in a kiddie pool. Too cute!

Here at Paw Nation, we know that every pet has a story, and it's usually a story their owners just love to tell. So we decided to hit the streets to ask pets (and their owners) about everything from how they were adopted to what was the naughtiest thing they've ever done. It's our weekly series, "Pet On The Street."

This week we're in Portland, Ore. asking dog owners about the things their pooches do to crack them up! Watch the video and then be sure to go to our comments section to tell us all about the funny things your dogs do.

With so many puppy videos and so little time, we've gone the extra mile and begun cataloging some of the finest YouTube offerings, separating each collection by breed in a feature called Puppy Party.

Today's roundup features the always entertaining American Eskimo Dog!

We know you love animals and want to improve their lives. But we also know how busy you are. That's why Paw Nation is making it easy for you to get involved in the paws cause by sharing ways people are helping animals across the country and around the world. Use these ideas as inspiration for projects in your own community, or get involved directly with animal causes!

Click to Give: The ASPCA and Walmart have teamed up for a cool new initiative with an even cooler name: Lend a Paw. Every day that you visit the Lend a Paw Facebook page and click on the Lend a Paw tab, Walmart donates $1 (up to $100,000) to the ASPCA. And, if you're in the Miami area on May 1, you can help even more by attending the Pet Care Fair, an event sponsored by Walmart to benefit the ASPCA.

Sharing is Caring: The Austin Humane Society, with the help of ad agency Door Number 3, has come out with a series of adorably funny videos featuring shelter dogs and cats, proving that animal shelters and rescues don't have to use guilt trips and sad puppy eyes to convince people to adopt and donate. Share the videos with your animal-loving friends, and spread the word that shelter pets are cool!

Most dog owners will tell you that one of the best parts of owning a canine is playtime. Fetch with Fido is always a great excuse to go outside, get some leisurely exercise and watch your dog do his thing like a pro.

Unfortunately, whoever owns Amos doesn't have a reason to get up from the couch when the playful pooch needs to work off some energy. As long as Amos can get his own jaws around a Frisbee, he'll literally catch and throw the disc all by himself, and it's quite possibly one of the funniest videos we've ever seen.

Man's best friend just put a dent in the title, wouldn't you say?

Remember the video we posted recently of that adorable puppy who, as much as he tried, couldn't turn over? Wow, wasn't that cute? Well, a while has passed since then, the puppy has gotten older, his priorities have changed, and now there is a sequel documenting all that.

Forget about Iron Man 2. Here's The Puppy Who Can't Roll Over 2: The Puppy Who Can't Roll Over Yaps at a Cat Who Couldn't Care Less.

"So you're saying I can't come with you?"

Baby pandas are sweet, and sleepy pandas are adorable. But a video of a group of roly, poly pandas trying to go the wrong way on a slide? It's almost more cuteness than we know how to deal with. Can you handle it?
