WATCH: This Baby Wombat Is A Klepto In The Making But We’re Okay With It

Yesterday, we brought you news of Japan’s latest cute-animal-meets-café craze; after tiring of cats and their associated claws / antipathy / hatred, they decided to give hedgehogs a crack. Overall, it’s been a good decision for them, and the spikey buggers have drawn much jealousy worldwide. 

Understandably. 

We’re not even mad at it, honestly. Good on ’em. However, outside of a scant few furry offerings, Australia is desperately lagging behind our Asian counterparts in this obviously crucial market. 

Yet ACT Wildlife may have inadvertently found the solution to this conundrum: wombats. Baby fucking wombats. Stealing your glasses as you have a cuppa. 


Lil’ Jack, who obviously left his Transitions in his burrow, is in the care of the wildlife rehabilitation group after being orphaned over a month ago. Apparently the little tyke needs feeding six times a day – including at 3am, which seems to be peak glasses-nibbling time. 

We’re not they’d feel great about loaning vulnerable Australian fauna out for caffeinated business ventures, but we’ll be right there if they ever change their minds.
