Kangaroo joeys are, without a doubt, some of the most precious and adorable creatures that the powers that be in the universe have ever seen fit to bring into existence.

Honestly, how anyone could see one and not instantly be overcome with an overwhelming need to become a kangaroo parent is beyond us.

Just look at Roosta, the precious little kangaroo joey, as he spends the day at the office with his human dad. Prepare to experience all the feels!

First, Roosta enjoys a very comfy car ride to the zoo where his human dad works. Once they arrive, Roosta gets to stretch his little legs, hopping along as happy as can be, as he follows his human dad into the zoo.

Once they are in Dad’s office, Roosta gets to rest in his comfy pouch while his dad prepares some warm milk for him. When it’s time to feed, Roosta’s dad very patiently and lovingly holds the bottle for him as he savors every last drop of warm milk.

Normally, we would say that watching precious little Roosta drinking his milk from the bottle was the most adorable thing we’ve seen all day, but the truth is there was so much overwhelming adorableness in this video that we can’t just pick one moment!

After he was done eating, Roosta’s dad gave him plenty of loving kisses and cuddles before taking him out to socialize with his koala bear friend. Then Roosta got to stretch his legs and hop around some more, before getting some more cuddles from his human dad.

More About Roosta, the Kangaroo Joey

According to this other video, Roosta, as cute as he is, hasn’t had an easy start in life. In this interview, which his human dad recently gave on an Australian talk show, Roosta was rejected by his mom three times, so Brandon, his human dad, stepped in to take care of him.

According to Brandon, Roosta is doing well now and will soon be free to roam in his own wildlife park exhibit. But until then, we have no doubt that Roosta will enjoy many more adorable feeding sessions and workdays with his loving human dad.
