These Pets Are So Clingy They'll Do Everything In Their Power To Keep Their Humans From Leaving
Some pets take clingy to a whole new level, and these photos prove it. The moment their humans reach for the door, they seem ready to launch a full-scale operation to stop them from leaving.
From blocked doorways to dramatic protests, these animals are doing everything they can to stay close. It is equal parts funny and heart-melting, especially when their humans clearly do not mind the extra attention.
By the end, it is hard not to root for the pets, even when they are being completely over the top.

"I tried to leave early for work this morning, but Mulder had other ideas..."

"My dog wedges his snout between the door when I leave for work, so I can't close it. One time, he went the extra mile."

Some of these pets are not taking goodbye very well.
"Leaving Bentley is the hardest part of the day."

"This is how Merlin attempts to prevent my brother from leaving his apartment."

"My cat learned that the alarm sound means I wake up, and she snuggles on my chest right after. I've been setting my alarm 30 minutes early every day to give her more happy time."

That alarm clock has become part of the routine now.
And if you’re wondering about first-day relief, check out the cats and dogs that sighed when they finally left their dreadful owner.
"You weren't planning on leaving the house today, were you?"

"She thought we were leaving without her."

"Every time I leave for work, she does this; it's not fair."

One look at that face, and the guilt hits immediately.
"My dog whenever she realizes we are leaving the house."

"My dog is smart enough to understand that packing means people are leaving because of how often my parents go on trips. They’re taking him to the beach this week, but when he saw them packing, he ran out to the back of the car and sat there so they can't leave without him 😂. He’s been there for about 40 minutes."

"He cries every day I leave for work. Today, he's decided he's coming with me."

At this point, the pets are clearly winning.
"Please don't leave, hooman."
