10+ Photos That Prove Cats Can Bond With People Just Like Dogs Do

Cats often get a bad reputation, mostly because they seem a little aloof, unfriendly, and utterly nonplussed by humans. That’s the reason why people prefer to own dogs to cats. However, scientists at Oregon State University conducted a study and showed that cats can form strong bonds with their caregivers — just like dogs do. What this means is that no matter how sassy or aloof cats are, they can form emotional attachments to their owners in the same way children bond with parents.

Today, we bring you a list of photos featuring some of the most loving cats ever. Not only are these cats adorable, they can give you some love and make you feel good. Scroll down to enjoy!
