Here at TODAY.com, we spend what some might consider an inordinate amount of time looking at pictures of cute little critters. Hey, what can we do? It’s part of the job.

After a round of rapturous gasping, it was decided that we should, in turn, share this inspired splendor with you, our readers. While the sight of these furry re-renderings might have caused Rembrandt, Botticelli, Monet and their esteemed peers to cough up hairballs of their own, we thought you might enjoy them.
