Won't this be cute when it's full of animals from your backyard and possibly the local zoo?

If there's one thing we can be sure about benches, it's that animals are going to wind up on top of them. So we've gone ahead and made a little list about the animals you can (and can't) plan to share the bench with.

Squirrels If you live anywhere with scenery, you're probably going to meet a squirrel once or twice. Be cool. They mostly just want to do their own thing. Sometimes they might cross your bench, but it's only in passing. For squirrels, it's all happening up in the trees.

Snowy Owls Most of the world will never see a snowy owl, so cherish the moments you share with them! But make sure your bench is clean and free from anything that might frighten an owl, because otherwise, it may never land! So no owl-eating pumas.

Owl-Eating Pumas Well, you've made your choice, haven't you? Just don't expect this cat to curl up on your lap and purr. The only time you're going to get a puma on your bench is when it's hungry. Don't let your guard down. And keep that thing away from my owls.

Walrus If you live by the beach, you might find a walrus waddling over and claming this bench. No, that's not a typo. The walrus will just leave clams everywhere. But if you're not near the beach, and you see a walrus, something's wrong. Call the local walrus society and ask the hard questions.

Elephants Not only is it cruel to keep an elephant in your backyard, an elephant simply won't fit on this bench. Not even a little one. Which would also be cruel, because a little elephant needs to be with it's mother, not on a bench!
