There are more cute animals out there than cats and dogs. Here to widen your perspective are 19 new cute animals to fawn over!

1. Fennec fox

These cuties are natives of the Sahara and can even be kept as pets!

2. Dugong

This song about them will get stuck in your head.

3. Capybara

Capybaras are the largest living rodents in the world. Also, they're apparently really chill with other animals.

4. Kiwi

They're even cuter than the fruit.

5. Caracal

Look at those ear tufts! Caracals are also known as the desert lynx.

6. Pygmy jeroba

I think to fully appreciate these guys, you have to see them move.

7. Pygmy marmoset

At just 3.5 ounces, pgymy marmosets are the smallest monkey in the world.

8. Klipspringer

Klipspringers are small (17-24 in. and 18 to 40 lbs.) antelopes from Africa and are nocturnal.

9. Dik-dik

Speaking of small African mammals, dik-diks get their names for the alarm calls in the females; though, both males and females produce a shrill, whistling sound.

10. Flapjack octopus

Look at it go! These little ones only grow up to be about 20cm at most, so they remain tiny and squishy their whole lives. If this looks familiar, it is probably because Pearl from Finding Nemo is a flapjack octopus!

11. Royal flycatcher

Not much can be said about these, but their built in crowns are adorable.

12. Kinkajou

They may look like a ferret or monkey, but these rainforest animals are actually closely related to raccoons.

13. Basilisk lizard

Also known as the "Jesus Christ lizard," these guys can run on water!

14. Gerenuk

Their nickname of the "giraffe gazelle" is very valid.

15. Green heron

Green herons are deceptive. You think they have no neck at all but... nope. Super long neck!

16. Fossa

To me, they kind of look like a combination of a ferret and an otter, just a lot larger. Anyone else see it?

17. Serval

The serval is a slender, medium-sized cat native to Africa.

18. Axolotl

Also known as the Mexican salamander, axolotls are unfortunately endangered due to urbanization in Mexico City and the consequent water pollution.

19. Quokka

Found in some islands off the coast of Western Australia. They're in the same families as kangaroos and wallabies.
