Have you ever saw an animal like a pet cat and suddenly had the urge to squish or hug it very tightly, even though in reality you do not want to? What about a picture of a baby bird that you saw on the computer and thought of yourself grabbing the bird through the screen and doing the same? You're not alone, and this project will inform you about this peculiar feeling as well as the properties of cuteness.

So this is one of the different projects I was thinking about, before a series of projects that will have a similar style to this: have some information about a topic on psychology you can perhaps learn about, and then have a relevant quiz to take right after. I thought this would be a unique thing to put onto Scratch.

About the cover: People wouldn't really associate cuteness with hammers, but the thing that makes things cute is usually a rounder shape and a smaller size, which, if used on a hammer, could make a cute hammer! This is similar to mini-sized water bottles as well compared to a normally sized bottle -- even objects can be considered cute, not just animals!

Equally inspired by @ExperienceSea with her project, "More About Your Personality!" and the YouTuber, Vsauce.
The pictures of animals were obtained from Google Images.
