Alf got fat.

[-] goodboyjojo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

i guess its a birth defect or something. he looks like a squishy ball

[-] LavaPlanet@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

This is what my brain imagines when I think the word puggle.

[-] MutantTailThing@lemmy.world 157 points 3 days ago

It’s like a pet ballsack

[-] Rcklsabndn@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago

Had a hairless rat briefly that we called Sir Scrote.

[-] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 27 points 3 days ago

While I absolutely love your comment and think my question essentially ruins it; I sure know mine's a lot wrinklier and think there's a technical flaw with your otherwise amazing quip

It sounds like you need to practice getting it to curl up into a defensive posture on command. Even a half curl will do wonders for its appearance.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 6 points 2 days ago

You made me laugh out loud for the first time in a while, holy mol-ey!

[-] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I hope he is not cold

[-] Nangijala@feddit.dk 1 points 1 day ago

Still not as cursed as hairless bears.

[-] einlander@lemmy.world 62 points 3 days ago

The scrotum demands scritches.

[-] flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

In more ways than one!

[-] terranoid@lemmy.cafe 62 points 3 days ago

Sentient ballsack

[-] MeowerMisfit817@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

As my brother joked when I showed him this:

"Damn, now he's just a hog."

[-] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

For Halloween he could go as Fully-Hedgeless Nick 🤪

[-] BooBees@fedinsfw.app 45 points 3 days ago

Poor bastard, born without quills and without pixels

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 26 points 2 days ago
[-] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 2 points 2 hours ago

What's up with its paw?

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I’m sure he loves pussy as much as Alf

[-] Mucki@feddit.org 7 points 2 days ago

Hey man bro, u got one of them pixels left? Maybe two?

[-] Salah@hexbear.net 16 points 3 days ago

Human intervention is at its best when it cares for beings that would otherwise not survive

[-] PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@anarchist.nexus 20 points 3 days ago

This makes me wonder: if Sonic shaved his quills, would he go faster? 🤔

[-] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 11 points 3 days ago

The quill gives him power so he'll go slower instead.

[-] TheTetrapod@lemmy.world 7 points 3 days ago

You're thinking of Sampsonic, my biblical hedgehog OC.

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 days ago

Definitely swim faster.

[-] chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 days ago

There is someone out there whose job is bald hedgehog masseuse

[-] BananaOnionJuice@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 3 days ago

Cute, it looks like one of the Clangers.

[-] heartSagan5@lemmy.zip 2 points 2 days ago

So, a Sphinx cat? Or I guess that’s just how it originated, a recessive gene (or whatever) we coaxed into a breed of cats?

Do cats have white supremacists? Somehow, that’s some kind of chimpanzee idea.

[-] ironycanal@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago

I think sphinx cats are older than the ability to cut in hedgehog genes to your cat.

[-] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

The weirdest tan egg I've ever seen.

[-] diabetic_porcupine@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago
[-] volvoxvsmarla@sopuli.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

But why the massages? Serious question

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 days ago

Hedgehogs normally have sharp quills that make them uncomfortable to massage.

[-] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 9 points 3 days ago

Reminds me of the time a yellow jacket flew up my dear departed Harold's draws and stung him right on the sack.

Looks like a half-ass-ed job.

[-] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Never half ass two jobs. Full ass one.

[-] Th3D3k0y@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Is the hedgehog massages like that one the otter was getting the other day?

[-] mondomon@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

You're looking at a nude egg.

[-] HulkSmashBurgers@reddthat.com 1 points 2 days ago

What a cute little meat bag 😂🤣.
