Cats can be extremely loving and affectionate; they may seem like they do not care about anything or anyone in life, but in reality, cats have so much love to offer, and they are never shy about it when you need them the most. They can feel your pain, and they try their best to alleviate that pain as much as their fluffy little bodies can handle.

In the end, it should come as no surprise, though, because history teaches us that cats basically domesticated themselves.

Cats chose us because cats make choices!

The people in the comments above confirmed that with their lovely stories that many cat owners would be able to relate to. Cats rock, and I hope these stories manage to change people's opinions of them.

Want to know why your cat picks you, even while ignoring everyone else? Here’s how cats decide their favorite human.
