7 Ways To Enjoy Your Lunch Break

Be it bad weather or a looming deadline (COSMO feels your pain!), sometimes it just isn’t possible to make it out of the office come lunch time. Never fear: you’ll love what we’ve got planned for you instead.

Things to make you go ‘Aww!’

If there is anything greater in life than a gaggle of adorable puppies or kittens, then tell us. Right now. Thought so. We don’t expect you to Uber in a bunch of pups to the office; instead, head to Explore.org, where you can watch live camera feeds of cute animals. Think brown bears waiting for salmon in Alaska, hippos gathering around a watering hole in Kenya, kittens snoozing at a rescue centre in the US… Something for every kind of animal-lover!

COSMO TIP We’ve lost hours of our life on this site, so make sure you set yourself a time limit.
