28 Wholesome Memes To End The Week On A Warm Note

Updated on December 21, 2025

I tried to have a “calm Sunday morning,” which lasted exactly until I checked my phone and got hit with a wholesome memes and heartwarming memes feed about a dad adopting a cat named Whole Milk. I wasn’t ready to feel feelings before I’d even found my socks, but here we are—soft, emotional, and extremely online.

Late December has this gentle blur to it. The world is quieter, your brain is louder, and everything feels like it could tip into either stress or sweetness depending on the next notification. So I went looking for heartwarming memes, happy memes, and wholesome pictures that act like a small, portable deep breath. Bonus: these are the kind of screenshots you can send without starting a debate.

28 Wholesome Memes For When You Want The Nice Part Of The Internet

If you just saw the two-person mitten made for holding hands, it’s almost annoyingly cute in the best way. That’s not a mitten, that’s a winter romance invention. The same goes for the tattoo artist drawing a marker unicorn for a little kid—instant core memory, no appointment required.

The grown-up sleepover with friends watching the extended Lord of the Rings is also a perfect happy memes moment. It’s wholesome in a “we’re adults, we can buy our own pizza, and nobody can tell us bedtime is real” way.

Then there’s the exchange student partners randomly running into each other 27 years later, which feels like the universe doing a little callback for the sentimental crowd. Pair that with Ben from Ben & Jerry’s showing up to scoop ice cream at a wedding, and suddenly I’m believing in surprises again.

I also loved the small-scale kindness ones: the big guy in karate class realizing a five-year-old is his equal, and the flight attendant holding a nervous flyer’s hand like it’s the most normal thing in the world. Those are wholesome pictures that don’t try too hard—they just quietly prove people can be decent.

And yes, the orange cat politely stealing cheese and the toddler melting down because the gloves match the jacket? That’s the comedic frosting. Tenderness plus chaos is the real Sunday recipe.
