Animals can tell us a lot with the help of their emotions — probably even more than if they could speak. One glance at your pet can be enough to know whether they’re shocked by your behavior or if you should be expecting revenge after giving them a bath. Check out our compilation and try to understand the thoughts that these animals are trying to convey to their owners.

Bright Side hopes that these emotional animals will better your mood and make your day brighter.
