Pets bond with their humans like babies do. Just like attention-seeking toddlers, they follow their owners around, bring them toys to play with, and find it difficult to understand the whole concept of personal space.
Bright Side has compiled some adorable photos of animals being clingy with their favorite humans for your daily dose of fuzzy feelings.
1. “Ladies and gents, I present my husband, who did not want a cat.”
2. “My cat never leaves my side, so I gave him a chair to chill on while I bathe.”
3. “This is Nova the night we got back from a festival — I don’t think we can ever leave again.”
4. “What a shoulder cat looks like — also, notice the other one in the background.”
5. “He can’t see me while lying down so he sticks one paw straight up so I can still interact with him.”
6. “My dog is absolutely in love with my girlfriend and never leaves her side.”
7. “Leo likes to sit like this and watch me brush my teeth.”
8. “We let him come inside during a hurricane. He hasn’t left.”
9. “I said hi to our dog over the phone. She could not figure out where I was so she went to the gate and waited for me.”
10. “I see this little face staring up at me every time I’m on my laptop.”
11. “He likes to be close. Very close...”
12. “My cats don’t like that I go to work so early in the morning now, so they apparently staged an intervention.”

17. “My chinchilla and his favorite spot to do his chinchilling”
18. “We no longer have shower privacy in the house thanks to this team right here.”
19. “My dogs waiting outside my door for me to wake up”
20. “Taken one year apart but some things never change.”
21. “115 lb of a 9-month-old lap dog who’s terrified of everything”
