Science claims that people tend to choose a pet that looks similar to them and Gerrard Gethings, a professional animal photographer, has taken it upon himself to prove this. In a series of striking comparisons called #doyoulooklikeyourdog and #doyoulooklikeyourcat, he compares the portraits of humans and their pets and highlights the similarities they share.
The results have us intrigued at Bright Side so we are passing them on to our readers. Don’t forget to scroll through to the end for a special bonus.
