Instagram has multiple uses. You can shop on it, get regular updates from your friends, follow your favorite personalities and upload stories while showing off cute dog ears. It’s fun and addictive but it’s so much better when there are animals involved.
Instagram animal personalities are an entire subgenre of the social media platform. These guys are worth millions of dollars, with millions of followers and, best of all, never posting anything controversial. What you see is what you get with them: a cute photo with an adorable and even inspiring write-up underneath.
Time magazine compiled a list containing the best and most famous animals with Instagram accounts. Check out five of our favorites:
