We could all use a cute animal video right about now, am I right? Well, you came to the right place, my friends.

A baby sea otter named Pup 681 recently arrived at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium from the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California after she was discovered abandoned on Coastways Beach in Central California.

But the good news doesn't just stop there. Shedd Aquarium released a video this week that shows the adorable pup being put in the water and learning to swim for the first time. It's already got more than 1.2 million views on YouTube, and it's sure to garner many, many more. The video features swimming, drinking from a bottle and lots and lots of fur. Warning: You may explode from a cuteness overload.

Here are some of the many wonderful highlights from the video as told through GIFs, because Internet.

Pup 681 is put in the water and looks very confused. I'd like to imagine this is what we all looked like when learning how to swim.

She couldn't stop touching her face because she knew just how darn cute it would look.

Shake it off, Pup 681. Shake it off.

You little ball of fuzz, you.

And now we do the back stroke.

Time for a milk break.

I don't know what exactly is going on here, but I'm into it.

So there you have it. I know your life has been profoundly changed by looking at all of those GIFs, and for that, you're welcome.

Pup 681 hasn't been introduced to the other otters yet (there were already four at Shedd Aquarium) so she can learn survival instincts from Shedd's staff, which she would have learned from her mother. She's currently in isolation in a shallow training pool, according to USA Today.

And Shedd is planning on documenting and releasing more videos of the pup's development in the future. But for now, check out the full video below.
