Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Cuteness Proximity can catch a lot of people off-guard in that they will impulsively decide to take a Ridiculously Cute Critter or Adorably Precocious Child home with them without properly knowing what or who they are. In some cases, the adopter would remain oblivious to their misidentification but, sometimes, they would have suspicions or realize their mistake when the adoptee begins exhibiting unexpected behaviors and/or capabilities or they're growing to an unusual size. If it should have been obvious, then the adoptee's Informed Species is an actual misinformation. From there, the reveal could be Played for Drama; the adoptee could be disowned or if perceived as a real threat, killed. If Played for Horror, the adoptee may be a dormant Eldritch Abomination who can cause The End of the World as We Know It if it embraces its true identity. Nevertheless, some adoptees could be accepted and turn out fine regardless of their true nature and even be able to reciprocate if they're cared for. Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })This trope can apply to both adoptions of children and pets. A sub-trope to Interspecies Adoption. Contrast with Oblivious Adoption where it's the adoptee who's not aware of their origins and it can overlap with Mistaken Species Adoption when the adoptee's origins is unclear to either party. Several adoption of children examples here also overlap with Muggle Foster Parents. If you're buying your pet from Honest John's Dealership, you're liable to be ripped off with a figurative or literal Pig In A Poke. |

Adventure Time: The Ice King's pet penguin Gunter is actually the amnesiac Eldritch Abomination Orgalorg locked into that form by Earth's gravity. Hunson Abadeer, the Lord of Evil, felt at one point that "he" is the most evil thing he had ever encountered. | |

Ranma ½: Akane keeps P-chan the piglet around, unknowing that it's Ryoga's cursed form. After the initial attempts to explain the curse to Akane failed and her violent reactions to attempts of driving "P-chan" away, Ranma resorted to continuously dropping hints in the hopes that she'll come to her own conclusion. Meanwhile, Ryoga does his best to keep her unaware but avoids Power Perversion Potential because of his reaction to the female body. A manga chapter/anime episode titled "Step Outside!" has Genma, Ranma's father whose cursed form is a panda, adopted by a boy named Yotaro. His mother explains that he agreed to go outside only if she got him a pet panda, but all "Kumahachi" has done since arriving is sleep, eat, and lounge around the house, which doesn't help motivate the boy at all. Threatened to reimburse Genma's meals, Ranma agreed to let Yotaro play with the "panda," but "she" eventually had enough and drags Genma home with the boy in pursuit, much to his mother's delight. |

In Hercules, after the protagonist is transformed into a mortal, he was found and adopted by a couple that, while surprised of his Super Strength, were unaware of his divine origins. Note that in this story, Hercules began as a full god born of Zeus and Hera instead of Classical Mythology's demigod born from Zeus/Jupiter's adultery with a mortal woman, only becoming a full god when his immortal side that remained after his cremation Ascended to a Higher Plane of Existence. | |

Encantadia is a Land of Faerie where the diwata and encantados reside. In both the 2005 original and the 2016 Continuity Reboot, Pirena, who was Easily Forgiven after a rebellion, abducted her sister Queen Amihan's daughter Lira and replaced her with her daughter that she secretly conceived and gave birth to. She then abandoned her in the human worldnote 2005!Pirena has clearer desire to kill as she left the baby on a railroad with an oncoming train, not knowing what it is but understanding enough that it's dangerous and was later taken in by a childless couple. The 2016 version has an old lady with mild sixth sense that warns the couple that something's off with the child. She's raised with the name Milagros (Spanish for "miracles")note The 2005 version has her survive a fire that burned down her foster parents' house when she was a baby. This is because of her Aunt/Ashti Danaya's "blessing" given to her before she was born that protects her against Pirena and fires. Meanwhile, Pirena's daughter becomes "Lira," but, in the 2005 version, people wonder why she has her "aunt's" Playing with Fire. | |

Harry Potter: The Weasleys' pet rat Scabbers is actually the Death Eater (follower of Voldemort) Animagus Peter Pettigrew, who faked his death and is hiding from Voldemort's other supporters. The telltale sign that he's not a regular rat is that he's been with the Weasleys for twelve years though the life expectancy for the rat's species is three. | |

At one point in Sesame Street, the Twiddlebugs adopt a caterpillar. Tina Twiddlebug is trying to tell everyone else that it's a caterpillar but forgets the rest of the word after "cater" and cut off by their excitement, they all start to think that it's a tiny cat. They tried to feed it milk and make it play with strings, but it prefers to eat leaves instead. They confirm their mistake with a picture book. Even so, the Twiddlebug kids decide to name their caterpillar "Cat." | |

His parents remain oblivious to Zac's status as a merman for the run of the show, but in the final episode, Zac (reunited with his biological mother) declares his intent to tell them the full truth. | |

Marvel Universe: Carol Danvers believed that her pet Chewie is a normal domesticated cat, even when Rocket Raccoon warned her that it's a "Flerken," until the "cat" laid eggs. Three surrendering Skrulls who were hypnotized by Reed Richards into thinking they're cows in Fantastic Four Issue #2 were accidentally mixed into a farmer's milking herd and bred Skrull-Cow hybrids. Their milk and meat can mutate its consumers. By Secret Invasion, some of the Skrull-Cow hybrids have integrated into human society and sided against the Skrulls. |

Macross Frontier: Ai-kun is initially thought of by the characters as an ambiguously squirrel-like organism and they assumed that he's just a then-unidentified, harmless wildlife, but it turns out he's actually a Vajra larva. This revelation is right around the time when it was also revealed that the Vajra aren't inherently destructive but mistakenly thinks that Ranka is one of their own that needs to be rescued and returned to their hive. | |

Hilda: The final two episodes of season 1 (adapted from the fourth Graphic Novel) resolve around a gigantic, black dog-like creature called a Barghest, which was adopted as a puppy by a Nisse, who mistook him for a regular dog and named him Jellybean. The Nisse's parents however realized what the puppy truly was and took him back to the wild. Now as an adult, he is trying to find his former owner. When they are reunited, the Nisse admits he had no idea Jellybean would become this big, but is nevertheless overjoyed to have his pet back. | |

Futurama: Leela took Nibbler in, believing him to be an animal with dog-like intelligence native to the planet Vergon 6. Turns out he's thousands of years old and belongs to a powerful, intelligent race that existed before the universe. In the movie Into the Wild Green Yonder, Leela rescues and keeps a desert muck leech after it lost its habitat on Mars, once again thinking that there's nothing more to the creature. It turns out that it has Psychic Powers and is the last Dark One, a sentient race that evolved throughout the eons and drove many others to extinction. |

The Ugly Duckling: Hans Christian Andersen's original version of the story has the mother duck believe at first that the larger egg she's hatching belongs to another type of bird (English translations vary as to whether it's a turkey or guinea fowl) but subverted when she starts believing that it's her own duckling after it was hatched. Double subverted because, as in all versions of the story (even those Lost in Imitation), he's revealed to be a swan. | |

Bunnicula: Mina adopted Bunnicula, but what she thought to be a regular rabbit is actually a vampire rabbit who can pull apart his body parts, grow wings and tentacles, and gain other powers from consuming vegetables and other objects. Good thing that he's still a good, even if a bit Trollish, vampire rabbit. Episodes that show the future where Mina has grown up into a Hunter of Monsters have the two of them and her other pets remain as friends, whom she can now understand because of the magical knowledge she'll acquire at some point. | |

Lilo & Stitch: After being ran over by trucks and taken to a dog shelter, Stitch disguised himself as a dog by hiding his extra limbs and antenna and was adopted by Lilo. He doesn't hide his not very dog-like behavior and the things that he's capable of; the most obvious ones are being able to walk upright dexterously, his Super Strength, and being able to play a vinyl record like a phonograph with his claw taking the needle's function and opening his mouth to transmit sounds like a speaker. Lilo and Nani still decided to keep him even after being revealed as an alien, with the Galactic Federation's Grand Councilwoman agreeing and declaring it as serving of Stitch's sentence. | |
