Annette Swoffer of New Zealand found this adorable baby seal curled up, asleep.
She got the surprise of her life when she found a baby seal in her kitchen, who later began to snooze on her couch, the New Zealand Herald reports.
According to the report, the seal wandered from the bay waterfront, through a residential area, across busy roads, under a gate, through a cat door, and up some stairs before he was found at around 9:30 p.m.
"I thought 'I'm hallucinating, this is just wrong,'" "Then it looks at me with those huge brown eyes. It was so cute..." Swoffer then called the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), who called the Department of Conservation. According to a report by Stuff.co.nz, the department was already looking for the pup.
When biodiversity program manager Chris Clark came to pick up the animal, he told Swoffer he'd been looking for the seal all afternoon and that it had likely just been weaned from its mother. The pup has had to be returned twice before.
Seals can carry infectious diseases and injure humans, so members of the public should contact authorities if they see a seal in trouble or in an odd location.
