A perfect target... for love!!

Today's sloth jauntily displays herself as accepting of affection and loving gazes. She doesn't mind being stared at - in fact, she prefers it to being ignored. Just look at the seductive way she wraps her toes around that tree and hangs at an enticing 45-degree angle. Yup, she knows what to do. Have a great, cuddly weekend from all of us at slothoftheday.

I'm sorry, what did you say?

I'm busy sleeping. And hanging. And being reeeeeeeeaaalllly cute. You'll just have to come back later.

Miscommunications happen.

It's a part of life. There's no need to hide yourself away like today's sloth - be proud and honest, straightforward and compassionate!! You might be surprised at how well it goes over. At the very least, there'll be lots of green stuff to chew if an awkward silence comes on.

Do you have any cookies?

Seriously. Today's sloth could really use some. You've had days like this, we know you have. Pony up.

Don't forget to water the plants and shutter the windows!

Sloths are going on vacation for a week, and will be back next Tuesday! Wish them leisurely travels to beautiful Northern California. Maybe you'll even get a postcard.

Today's nose is a real cute nose.

And functional, too! It helps today's sloth give a little whistle and snore while she rests. Nobody minds - it's not that loud and it's a reminder of how innocent anyone looks while they're sleeping. Especially sloths, who are pretty innocent anyway. Take a few moments to gaze at her happy little face and then go about your day. We hope you enjoyed SLEEPING SLOTHS WEEK!!

It's a beautiful day for a tree-nap

You guessed it, folks. Day four of SLEEPING SLOTHS WEEK features yet another dozing tropical mammal. The heat has cooled off some and the sun is shining a little more calmly, so today's sloth can sleep through the entire day. Whew. What a relief!!

Welcome to day three...

of SLEEPING SLOTHS WEEK. And really, can you blame them? It's so damn hot that all of us here at slothoftheday would like to curl up into a little ball and take a snooze on a branch, too. Surrounded by all that cool leafy greenery, shaded from the hot sun and any animal daring to break their sweet, soft snores... come on, how much more awesome can you get? (Answer: none.)

Fire up the tent!

There's napping to be done! It's day two of SLEEPING SLOTHS WEEK and today brings us a beautiful albino two-toed resting peacefully against an unknown green fabric. Possibly a circus tent, with branches for moorings. Sloths get so tired that they can even get a little shut-eye during the lions-and-clowns act. That's something we can all aspire to.

It's SLEEPING SLOTHS WEEK!!

That's right, get 'em while they're dozin'! We have a fresh new week of happy, nappy, sleepy sloths coming at you. First up is a fairly normal little siesta, either on or below a knotty branch and surrounded by beautiful green leaves. Nothing out of the ordinary. There may even be some cuddling involved - it's hard to tell at this angle, and to come any closer would break up the magic. Come back tomorrow and see who else we have in store! And ssssshhhhh.

Weekend box-sloth!!

Okay, so we didn't do an actual theme week but we did feature a lot of interspersed sloths in boxes the last two weeks, so we're gonna keep going. Today's sloth is so excited for the weekend that he's brought out all four of his feet to celebrate. Just look at his happy little claws and start dreaming of the awesomest thing you're going to do this weekend!! And tune in next week for a BRAND NEW THEME. (Suggestions always welcomed.)

It's never too hot for a cuddle.

Even today, which promises to be warm and sticky just like yesterday. The good news is that there's rain a'comin', and also that today's sloths are so damn cute you may just forget about the heat. At least you don't have that long wiry hair to contend with. You should count your blessings.

Yoga time!

Everyone loves a little bit of morning yoga, especially today's sloth. She's doing her best upside-down dog for the occasion, and is waiting for you to notice so you will give her a treat for being so flexible. (Just don't tell her that's not a thing; she might lose her balance.)

Back to work...

And today's sloth is totally ready. Man, we should have a sloths-in-boxes theme week... there are just so damn many of them. Peeking, peering, clasping, draping. Happy Tuesday!!

Time for a glittery sleep!

Today's sloth has had so much fun partying with her friends and watching fireworks from the roof that she's too tired to do anything but close her little eyes and pass out from pure happiness. And a well-rested night to you, from all of us here at slothoftheday.

Hey hey whatcha doing?

Where ya going? Can I come please? Oh I'll be so good, I won't even make a sound and I'll make all your friends happy by being so adorable. My fur is like Brillo; they'll love it. Come on, let me come... please please please please!!
