Very Cool and Funny Cats Pictures

Funny Cats Give Their Love picture

I found this in pictures of cats, and it reminded me of endless discussions about whether cats are capable of love. Well I cant claim all cats are, but of course neither are all humans. All I know is that cats give their love back to people who love them. One of my grandmothers funny cats knew the sound of my car and she would rush back home to greet me no matter where she is. She would climb up my clothes, wrap her little arms around my neck, lick my face while rubbing her head against mine.

A friend of mine calls this “iams cat food syndrome” and keeps on telling me how pet cats only show you affection if you give them food. As someone who adores cats and someone who has been loved by a cat I know that’s not true. Cat’s affection does not depend on treats and iams cat food like my friend said. Clinical evidences show that mere presence and/or touch of a preferred person have been shown to reduce the heart rate of these animals – which is a sign of bonding.

Cats who live with humans since they were born often consider themselves almost human or their humans almost cats. They are known to bring dead animals as proof of their love and care. They follow their “owners” around the house and wait for them when they are gone. My funny cat used to sit on a table next to the window for hours waiting for me to come home. If that is not love I don’t know what it is.

Of course there’s a lot more. From cat kisses, squinting, cute cat sounds, rubbing their had against you, kneading and purring to the ultimate sign of trust – lying on their back. This is probably the greatest sign of love and trust from a cat. With it’s stomach exposed your cat is in it’s most vulnerable position.

    So true. Such as today, I think my cat realized that I would be going back to my dorm, as whenever I would wake up, I would see he was lying on me, as if saying, “No, you are not going anywhere. I want you here!” Since I have gone to college and spend my weeks in the dorm, I have noticed my cat lying on me as much as possible when I would get home. Cats my be independent, but they can come to love us!

    My cat Marty followed me everywhere. He was a sick little cream and honey tabby that I rescued and nursed from the age of 6 weeks. My family called him ” my shadow”. He waited in the window, then rushed to be cuddled as soon as I got home. He would tap me on the shoulder to come sit with him if I was working on the computer. He wanted to cuddle and be kissed and hugged 24/7. He slept on top of me every night for almost 18 years. He would gently paw at the covers if my arm was under them, so I would take it out and hold him. A few weeks before he died…he placed his paw gently on my cheek and gazed into my eyes as if to say he was sorry to be leaving me. He had been sick for months, in and out of the hospital. His companion cat, Judy, who has lived with us for 16 years, never does any of this and they both had food available at all times.
    Love is love, and some animals, like some people can show it better than others. I hope you all find this kind of love at least once in your life.
