    Sounds so fake lol.

    Baby seals make this noise?! I had no idea…. I didn’t think they could get any cuter!! Fuzzy bebah seal, limpid black eyes, and anerable honking noise… I think we’ve got a trifecta of teh cute here!

  5. sugitomo says:

    Move over, Teddy! We need videos of baby seals talking from now on. This is redonk.

    • The Original Jane says:

      Just what I was thinking. And sorry peeps but this little guy is way cuter than Teddy!

  6. Carla says:

    I’m glad I’m home alone so no one heard me squeal.

  7. Birdcage says:

    My only complaint is that it stops too soon! I want to see lap-seal video!!!!!

  8. So cute one of my ovaries just melted.

  9. Jayme says:

    I actually find his noises to be cute but disturbingly human-like! He sounds like a human child making noises! It’s quite strange, but I would still want him on my lap please.

  10. Coffee Cup (now with more bunnies) says:

    Honk indeed, little seal. Honk indeed.

  11. Gigi says:

    Cute but sad. Why sad you say? Because this poor guy is going to lose all arguments from now on. All his wife has to say is “remember the time I got you a baby seal visit for your birthday?” :lol:

  12. Shari says:

    Cute Overload, what are you trying to do to me?! I can’tgo work out now, I’m a big ol’ limp bag of “awwww!” Seriously, these seals are too darned cute to watch all at once.

  19. Rachael says:

    I’m completely exhausted from the qte and I’m pretty sure there’s no coming back from this one. “Elizabeth, this is the big one! I’m comin’ to join you, honey.” Seriously.

    • pupfanatic says:

      LOL! I totally forgot about that “Sandford & Son” reference. Gotta use that, but, dangit it especially applies here. SHEESH, I tell ya! *Splat!*

  20. Jane says:

    O!M!G!!!! I just died. This is seriously the sweetest thing I have ever seen/heard. I want a baby seal. Urgh!

  21. Lauren says:

    Best birthday present ever!

    When I tried to watch the video, it said it was “private,” and when I went to YouTube, it said I couldn’t access the video without the owner’s permission. Apparently the owner withdrew permission, but why let it be posted on CO in the first place if they are going to block access?

  23. Jane says:

    OMG. I watched this video about 30 times and then when I went to watch it again, it was marked private. WOE, WOE! PLEASE GIVE IT BACK, JOE R!!! :( :( :( :(
