Some lucky humans were able to capture cute photos of their pets being shy and Bright Side would love to share them with you.
1. “She’s a bit shy in front of the camera.”
2. “We rescued him a month ago from the humane society. He has finally started to bring his toys to us for playtime!”
3. Someone clearly doesn’t like getting their photo taken.
4. Cat logic: “If I close my eyes, I’m invisible.”
5. “Peek-a-boo!”
6. Nothing to see here. Just a perfectly normal curtain...
7. “I saw this goofy little face peeking out of her owner’s jacket.”
8. “Meet Gilbert. He’s kind of shy.”
9. There’s no dog in this picture...
10. “My friend’s dog likes to hide under his own tail. We’re pretty sure he thinks nobody can see him.”
11. That’s one fluffy bunny we want to hug!
12. “My boy Ollie found this puppy hiding in a bush after a giant storm hit.”
13. “Her favorite hiding spot”
14. “I’m safe in here.”
15. “She said, ’YES!’ I mean, ’WOOF!’”
