This toad kept hanging out outside this man's house, so he made lots of hats for it

Millinery is the art of making hats.

Regardless, 43 year old Chris Newsome, a Director of Web Services for a university, was repeatedly visited by a toad on his porch in Alabama.

The hats included a Texan hat, a top hat, a baseball cap, and a "pimp hat".

He explained in the comments:

To explain how this started... I had made the pics for a friend's little boy that lost his frog. I sent the hats to him afterwards.

It was a very well-behaved Toad:

Chris told Bored Panda:

The longest I spent on each hat may have been 10 minutes.

Which is gratifying.
