How long I have waited…

We all know that our pets love us. They snuggle up to us when we’re cold. They cheer us up when we’re feeling down. And the looks that they sometimes give us can make our hearts melt—sometimes it seems like they’re looking straight into our souls. (SLBuzzFeed, h/t Miss Cellania)

My cat gives me this face but she does it while also sinking her claws into my flesh really slowly like she is carefully testing my adoration-versus-pain response threshold.

squeezing the nearest furlove while attempting selfies: nope. Still I got me some squeezies, so.

my boyfriend used to have a cat that would just sit and gaze at him with the look of purest love. I miss his cats, they were lovely

Right on. Our brilliant dog (my profile pic) and two amazing Highland Lynx cats have these heart melting expressions of innocence and loving trust nailed. One never feels worthy. We should look at them this way.

Where is this magical land where geezers have their cats on public transport? I am nearly a geezer myself and my cat Fred is the best and I want to live there.

ThinkySpouse will just have to deal.

I bet we do, it's just that it's hard for our pets to take pictures of us (GUIs confuse them).

True, every IT cat I've met sneers at WIMP interfaces and heads straight for the Teminal.

Funny how we humans read cats thinking "how can I eat this person at the earliest opportunity" as "looks of purest love".

The photo of the woman on the bus with her cat is a piece of fucking art. (#16)

My cat is possibly feeling affection sometimes when she's staring at me, but more often she's trying—like, really concentrating—to telepathically order me to feed her.1

When she's purring and buried her face in my armpit while I scratch her head, that's when I'm pretty sure she's loving me.2

2. Every three hours.
