Must-see videos of the week: Feb. 23-Mar. 1

Sometimes, we can't help but give in to our animal companions. The first two of this week's must-see videos show just how expressive our pets can be, and why, even when they do something wrong, we still have to love them. Throw in some human creativity, and here are our five favourite videos from this week:

Maybe it's just me, but with a face like this, I could never stay mad. Achilles here was caught trying to climb onto the kitchen table in an attempt to get some food, and he knew he was going to get a talking to from his owner, James Hignett. Chances are good that when he walked into the room to face his owner, Achilles's approach was enough to melt any anger away.

And now, for a much more unconventional pet, but evidently one just as emotive. Gevan the highland cow was rescued from slaughter in 2013, and now lives at an animal sanctuary in Scarborough, Scotland. She's got an undeniable love for a good hair brushing (and with that much hair, who can blame her?), as you can see when her owner Sharon Lawlor goes to groom her.

Moving on to a very different kind of animal, the signature Batarang used by the one and only Batman has been brought to life by Victor Poulin, who runs the YouTube account BoomerangsByVic. Apparently, he'd received many requests from viewers to make a Batarang that would really fly, and as you can see from the video, he didn't disappoint.

If you think that Batarang maker had a lot of time on his hands, check out this guy: Karl Baden charted his aging process over 24 years by taking a single photo of himself every day (and the title of the project was, aptly named, 'Every Day'). The result is this nearly quarter-of-a-decade aging process taking place in two minutes, as Baden's appearance shifts almost imperceptibly through the aging process.

And finally, before you watch the Oscars on Sunday night (or read who won on Monday morning), catch up on all the nominated movies you haven't seen, courtesy of these Vine videos. The six-second clips created by fans highlight some of the best moments from this year's nominated films.
