Cute baby animal alert! Last month, an orphaned 10-week-old southern sea otter was found stranded near Cayucos, California. Fortunately for the adorable young pup, she was taken to Shedd Aquarium in Chicago and is currently receiving 24-hour care.

Although the otter's future was initially uncertain, she's now taking formula from a bottle and is eating solid food. Handlers think she may even be ready to meet her adoring public this coming summer.
