YouTube offers everything from the “Funniest Video Everrrrr” that turns out to be merely tweens throwing Pepsi cans at each other while playing video games to “Most Dramatic Save in the History of the World,” which is just some dude almost dropping a cantaloupe. This video, though, is exactly what it claims to be: animals dancing to Salt-N-Pepa’s “Push It.” The carefully curated collection of clips were edited together by the folks at [Tastefully Offensive](http://www.tastefullyoffensive.com/2014/06/animals-dancing-to-salt-n-pepas-push-it.html). The video shows animals ranging from a walrus to a parrot to a variety of cats and dogs all busting a move to the ’80s classic. Crank up the volume, and get ready to do your best [running man in your cubicle ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=%5FRuj-gR1nfs)or, at least, crack a smile. **MORE:** [There’s a New ‘How Animals Eat Their Food’ Video](http://newsfeed.time.com/2013/08/27/viral-video-of-the-day-how-animals-eat-their-food-part-two/) **MORE:** [Meet the Adorable Husky Who Thinks She’s a Cat](http://time.com/104702/husky-raised-by-cats/) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/2888286/animals-dancing-to-push-it-is-the-cutest-video-youll-see-today/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/2888286/animals-dancing-to-push-it-is-the-cutest-video-youll-see-today/"},"headline":"Animals Dancing to 'Push It' Is the Cutest Video You'll See Today","datePublished":"2014-06-17T20:56:52.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:10:51.247Z","description":"A tribute to the '80s classic","url":"https://time.com/2888286/animals-dancing-to-push-it-is-the-cutest-video-youll-see-today/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals","cats","Viral Videos"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/2888286/animals-dancing-to-push-it-is-the-cutest-video-youll-see-today/","name":"Animals Dancing to 'Push It' Is the Cutest Video You'll See Today"}}]}] ```
