How many times you've heard someone declaring that cats are stupid and who needs them anyway? We sure did at least a couple, and each time the story ended the same way - the cat hater unexpectedly got themselves a cat, and now they're best friends forever. Precisely because of these feline hatred imposters and their complete turnarounds into cat person Bored Panda has compiled a list proving that resisting a cute cat's charm is a lot more difficult than you'd imagine.

Sure you can say you don't want a pet cat, and hey, you might even mean it, but that doesn't mean a kitty cat doesn't want you, and if it does then no amount of resistance will stop it from creeping into your life and stealing your heart. Don't believe us? Then keep on scrolling to see the funny photo proofs for yourself, and feel free to add your own pictures to the list!
