Tuluko is a 2-year-old Little Owl (yes, that’s it’s real name) who lives in an apartment in Tokyo. His owner goes by the name KIMUPIKO on Twitter and regularly posts photos of his tiny owl friend, much to the delight of Japanese netizens. The photo above in particular has been melting hearts across the internet. Just seeing Tuluko hunkered down on the warm heated floor is cute enough, but wait until you see some of her other photos.
▼ Tuluko likes to perch on top of things…like a slipper.
▼ But she likes to be under things, too.
▼ Sometimes she even likes to be on top of and under something at the same time.
▼ Of course she likes to perch atop the couch.
▼ And on the table…
▼ How would you like a little buddy to watch over you while you do the dishes?
▼ But most of all Tuluko likes to snuggle up.
▼ She really likes to snuggle.
▼ It could just be her favorite thing.
