A real seal played with his stuffed toy counterpart… and the result is cuteness overload

I know we're suckers.

Although you can't really blame us, this seal making best friends with a toy seal is honestly the cutest thing we've seen all day. The staff at Japan's Mombetsu Land, an attraction in the Hokkaido district, gifted one of their seals with a plush version of itself and the results are almost too cute to quantify. We'll stop jabbering on and just hand over the goods, without further ado... meet the cutest seal duo on the planet. He likes to nap with it (one eye open lads)... Cuddle with it... And perhaps the pièce de résistance... Rock around with the mini-me on his back and look like the happiest best friends that ever lived. You. Are. Welcome.
