Have you ever seen a pregnant woman and thought that she was glowing? Well, the same things happens with animals. Pregnant animals are surprisingly cute, but just like humans, they’re miserable when they’re with child. The dichotomy of cute and uncomfortable is obvious in some photographs. Here are 20 animals that look totally cute, yet miserable, when they are pregnant.
Cats are already cute when they are not pregnant, who doesn’t love a fluffy kitty? But have you ever seen a little cat critter with child? Their bellies get big and hang low, it makes them look especially cute. However, just like pregnant humans, pregnant kitties have to suffer the gestational side effects, too.

If you’ve ever had a dog that wasn’t fixed you might have experienced a dog pregnancy. Fortunately, pregnant puppers are cute as can be! Unfortunate for them, however, they probably aren’t having as good a time as you. When they are put in front of the camera, they’re probably happy to just be relaxed. They’ll need a lot of relaxation if they’re going to make it through their pregnancies. Dogs are one of many animals that are cute but tired when really pregnant. They’ll keep wagging those tails, though.
Baby monkeys are super adorable, but before you can have cute little baby monkeys, the magic has to happen. While lots of other mammals only have short gestation periods, chimps have long ones. They stay pregnant for around nine months. That’s about the same time that humans gestate. What’s more, it’s almost a full year. Being with child for that long cannot be fun. Fortunately however, once it’s over, the cuteness of baby chimps arrives!
This next little ball of fur will certainly brighten your day!
Guinea pigs are already some of the most adorable little critters out there. But if you haven’t had the pleasure of seeing a guinea pig with babies in its belly, you’re missing out. The fact that they can hold babies this young is pretty impressive! It also seems like a bit of a drag to be two months old and already pregnant. Because they can be impregnated from a very early age, their swollen tummies look disproportionate. The result is a puffy-bottomed furry pet with tiny hands and feet.

This next item on the list will really shock you. I’ll bet you didn’t know that male seahorses are actually the ones who endure the pregnancy. That’s right.

They’re adorable! They’re practically glowing with the duty of pregnancy, but they look a little miserable, don’t they?
