Oh! STINKIN’cute!!!
But they’re soulless begging machines. A grey roo in the Grampians will rip your veggie pie away from you as soon as look at you. A greasy veggie pie, too.
I totally didn’t see the baby down there. He gets free food all the time, no pity..
(okay, a little pity)
Mom looks so unbelievably delighted that she’s being fed!
Little joey’s got that “bratty whiny little kid” expression down pat!
Holy Crap Cuteness!!
Can I have one of these?
Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!
I too am a wallaby wannabe.
so sweet!
*BEEP*
*BEEP*
*boop*
*boop*
Mama’s singing the ‘Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy’ song.
They have beautiful eyes..
Mom looks like she’s got that kind of cute little teeth gap!
Wow. This is the cutest thing I have seen in a long time!
Momma’s face looks so soft and happy, t cheers me up!
That wallamama is so HAPPY!
You work hard all day taking care of a little kid, and it’s just overwhelming when somebody does something nice just for you.
My brain just ‘asploded.
I squeed til the cows came home. And they brought milk!
I’m with kibblenibble.
Wallaby damned! (arg someone had to say it…) The face on the momma is so precious. And the baby’s eyelashes are so long! Happy pics.
Confession time: the world is chock-full of animal pictures so cute they’re unfair. They’re everywhere. I could go to Google Image and be drowning in puppies and kittens and, yes, even baby wallabies. So why do I come to C.O. instead?
Answer: the captions.
In other words– Good one, Meg.
@ Nikky gown !!!
Oups gown??? see what happens when your brain explode from the cute and the pun…
LMAO!
With those toenails, I can see why Mama insists that Joey keeps both the front and the back feet out of the pouch. Boing. OUCH. Boing. OUCH.
Ooooooh mama wallaby is too cute!!!
@ Nikki: I was thinking more of “Well, wallabe darned!” How cute can a smiling wallabe be anyway?
Somebody needs to give Mom a full spa day. Complete with built adonis, vikings, etc, feeding her pellets and peeled grapes while she’s reclining in her mud bath after her shiatsu massage. (baby in licensed daycare of course)
Smilin’ Jack (ok, Jill)??
umm….perhaps a “Pocket Pets” Tag?
(I know, a baby of the same family isn’t the same as a little pet in a shirt pocket, but ya know …..????) See where I’m goin’, here?
Is there a second wallababy in the pouch? Or does wallababy have 3 ears?
Wallamama is so cute, and seems so happy to get a few treats!
Oh, so beautiful! I’m an Aussie, and I love roos and wallabies.
Oh thank you! Thank you so much. Thank you…
BEEP BEEP!!!
Didn’t know the Purina people made Wallaby Chow.
Oh. My. God!!! I feel myself slipping into a diabetic coma from all the qte. If there’s a happier, more adorable face on the planet than that momma’s, I’ve yet to see it. *thud*
Oh my goodness gracious me. I have only seen wallabies lounging around in zoos and have never seen one smiling before…. and the joey… thud.
so…..HAPPY!
Watch out, Disney!
That is a seriously cute pair of wallabys. Seriously. Cute.
Daytime Deb: I thought that too, but on close examinayshe, I think it’s his tailio.
Because of the way this post showed up on my screen, I got a nice scrolldown surprise. First I saw Ms. Wallaby’s face, and I was like, “What on Earth kind of animal is *that*? Mouth like a guinea pig, big ears, long tail–I don’t know!” Then I scrolled down, and the marsupial surprise was revealed. I enjoyed.
@res…heeee “pocket pets”
Cute little baybay.
Another great creature!
Love the smiley face in the 2nd photo, and the baby wanting in on the action, looks like there’s another in the pouch with him, so this one must be the pouch rep, looks very serious compared to mom.
O wow, that is a cute little swine!
Australian animals are so dorabuhl; and they are only found in that part of the world; how did that come about? O, I know: something about evolution, I guess; but this is a serious ‘need to know’ basis…..the xtra Qte and xtra Different, combined in such a winning combination…….. the Q&D factor….
omg, such a pretty mommy!!! omg omg omg omg omg *dead*
The captions made me chortle. I feel like they made the pictures even better.
Did anyone else read “vintage pellet” like it rhymes with ballet? Or was that intended?
Clearly this is the first human to appriciate how cute the Mom is and telling her ‘how quick she got her figure back’ and ‘of course baby is cute having you as a mom it had to be a cute baby’
*golf clap*
Well, you’ve done it again, CO. Once again you have outdone yourself with cuteness. I believe the secret ingredient was teh cute inside teh pouchies of another cute.
Want one!
LOVE! This is so adorable!
walla, wallababy walla walla walla bing dong!
I mean, seriously Wallas were pretty much the first in line when the funny names were handed out.
I was so overcome by the blissful look on mummy’s face that I failed to notice the extreme floofiness of her entire frontage. *thud*
That level of cuteness is unpossible. It just ain’t natural.
That post made me very hoppy. Thank you. Am off to grab a cup of joey.
Wallabies rock! These photos made my day, although I must admit that I am a bit sad to not have a wallaby here in the office with me…
The second pic made me smile gthe wallaby look so happy and the baby is so freaking cute
For meeeeee? (rising pitch)
I think dere’s two bebes in dere.
I FINALLY get to see a laughing wallaby!!!
I do believe I saw that mommy wallaby in a Disney movie…
Yup, that is very, very redonkulously cute. Great job, CO!
Will flirt for food…
It is nice to see some one appreciate food. Flirting does work.
Pouchbound minimarsupial is not happy with the fact that Mom wants to hit the hop-thru on her way to dropping the diminutive macropod off at the mall. (Although with those claws, it’ll be more like a maul.)
squirrels with pouches …
Wouldn’t it be just the coolest, awesome-est thing to live in colorful Oz & get to see wild walls & roos grazing at dusk, just like we see wild deer grazing here in black-n-white Kansas? I had the GREAT fortune of visiting Australia for 3 weeks in 2000 and fell absitively head-over-heels in love with the entire continent, all its animules, and all its wonderful peeps!
I think, although I’m no expert, the extra “earsies” that seem to be in photo # 3 which would indicate another joey, are actually joey #1′s feetsies. He seems to be folded up onto himself with his nose next to his ankles. (Oh, to be that limber.)
Oh and by the way, SQUUUEEEEEEEEEEE to both wallamama.and wallababeh.
Oh wow. Oh gosh. The little sliver of white toof in the laughing second picture. I’m getting dizzy….
I was in Australia in 2002 and was lucky enough to hold a baby wallaby that was swaddled in a hemp sack, in my arms. It was one of the most snorglicious furbebbehs. Ever. It smelled good too, kind of a woodsy minty smell.
Absolutely an adorable little bugger.
(gulp) OMG
(I did a funnee that made the **Poetess Laureate of CO** giggle????)
(gulp #2)
(in a pseudo-Elvis Impersonator Voice)
thanyeverrmuch
That first photo is SO AWESOME w/ the behbehwalla hidin’ and the mamawalla’s expression!
I think C.O. needs a new Rule of Cuteness: if you have built in pockets for your baby. . .it’s cute.
There’s a MILS (mother I’d like to snorgle). Between this euphoric flyer and the sad wallaby from the animated gif, wallabies sure seem to get emotional about food.
This is one of those rare cases when the adult is even cuter than the baby! OMG
