It seems I am a late arriver to the Slow Loris fan club, but thanks to a tip from Greta, I’m now a card-carrying member. Before we get to the videos, first, the science of cute via UltraKawaii.com.
According to scientists: Cute things are the things that subconsciously remind us of helpless little babies.
According to Josh, who writes for the site, these factors also help: Extreme fuzziness, big eyes, big head, wobbly legs and squeaky noises.
Therefore, the Slow Loris, with its extreme fuzziness and Margaret Keane eyes is kawaii personified. Eat your heart out, Sanrio!
Search “slow loris” on YouTube to turn a depressing day around. Note that it’s not very kawaii to keep these creatures in cages, so cut that shit out, stupid humans. However, the awwww factor of a hand-made fort is undeniable.
