The rats of New York have made international headlines for their incredible food feats, dragging pizza and McMuffins through the Big Apple's streets.

But the next online star is a Pennsylvania groundhog, and he may be the calmest new celebrity of all.

"Pizza groundhog," as he has since been dubbed, was spotted by Kristin Chalela Bagnell outside her home in Philadelphia.

The groundhog was first noticed by one of Bagnell's dogs, who wandered over to the sliding glass door to meet its new furry friend.

There, standing right in front of the other side of the glass, was the groundhog clasping a big slice of pizza with both of his hands.

Bagnell followed her dog to see what it was looking at, and began recording the hungry groundhog.

While Bagnell's dog was fascinated by the rodent, the groundhog seemed completely unfazed by his new audience.

He stared straight ahead at Bagnell and her pup, taking little bites of his slice as he chewed along.

The only time the groundhog appeared to take pause was when Bagnell's other large dog appeared at the window.

He briefly stopped mid-bite, almost appearing to look at the big creature before him with wide eyes.

But if there was any fear, it soon disappeared as the groundhog went right back to business.

He continued to chomp along on the slice, clearly enjoying his piece of pie.

Bagnell told WPVI that the groundhog stuck around for more than an hour eating his pizza slice as her dogs Maggie and Moses watched.
