THE LIVING ROOM — Christmas is long over, but sometimes the joy of a perfect gift is so strong that it transcends all times of year.

That’s why you’ll see this featured video that was certainly shot at Christmas but posted earlier this month. It’s about the happiest and most adorable video I’ve written about, and I’ve been writing these things for over four years.

The video begins with grandma opening a “heavy” Christmas gift. And we soon know the score once she’s cracked the lid and a little black paw swipes through the opening.

Grandma’s little fright quickly turns into puredee golden love. She swoons and croons over her new bundle of of fur, not quite sure what to cuddle first.

If your heart doesn’t completely melt when she exclaims with an emotional voice, “Oh, he’s darling!” then you might need to have your feelings checked by a doctor. (I’ve watched the video at least six times so far, and that part gets me every time.)

There’s not much more I can say about this video because it truly speaks for itself. But I couldn't be happier for a stranger. Based on her reaction, it seems like she needed a fur friend to cuddle and love, and I’m glad we as purusers of the internet get a small reminder of what pure joy feels like.
