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.

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.
