A New Zealand woman arrived home yesterday and found an unexpected visitor - a baby seal, asleep on the sofa!
The fur seal pup was nicknamed "Lucky" because he managed to cross a busy road, push into the house through a cat door, and climb up some stairs to get to the couch in the living room. What a clever little pup!
The woman called animal control. Wildlife experts came and woke Lucky up from his nap and released him back into the sea.
I once discovered baby flying squirrels living in my attic, but I’ve never experienced anything as interesting as a seal on the sofa. Wouldn’t that be exciting?!
