30 Of The Most Adorable Photos Of Cat Dads And Their Furry Friends
There are plenty of stereotypes out there when it comes to guys and cats; they are sensitive, deep and caring, more likely to fancy staying home reading James Joyce and puffing moodily on a cigarette than be out and about exploring the world like those adventurous dog guys.
Unsurprisingly, with a growing trend for such character traits as sensitivity, emotional unavailability and not having children, house cat ownership among guys is on the rise too. 'Cat dads' they are called, and maybe, just maybe, they are onto something because the ladies just can't seem to get enough of it!
Don't know what we mean? Well, we here at Bored Panda have put together a list of cute cats and their equally cute guys so that you can judge for yourself. No matter where you stand on the great cat/dog divide, there's something about a human and an adorable animal sharing an obvious connection that is oh-so-appealing. Scroll down below to see for yourself, and share your own in the comments!

People who think cats are not affectionate don't understand cats. You get what you give with cats. Dogs will try to be good to you even if you treat them badly. Cats only love you if you deserve it.

Not entirely true, I love my cat, she's goofy and adventurous, but not at all affectionate. We give her all kinds of affection and love, but she doesn't return it. We still love her anyway, although my mom wishes we had a more affectionate cat. Cats aren't a program where you get what you give, they're individuals who will be themselves. Cats are happy if you treat them right though, as we should all be striving to do.

me to hubby: It's a bonded pair we have to adopt both! Hubby: ugh, fine Hubby 2 days later to one of the half-grown rescue kitties: "Who's my sweet little Dixie cup kitty? Who's my sweet little Dixie cup?" Eight months later: "Who's my sweet little Dixie cup kitty?".... Married to that man over 25 years and I've never been his sweet little anything... Is it wrong to wonder why a cat has better pet names, pun intended, than I do?

Just enjoy it. For some folks it is hard to express their feelings in words and easier to talk to cats. Once they get started the nice words will get shared with you :)

I tend to instinctively distrust people who don't like cats (if not allergic). How can anyone look at a fluffy big-eyed kitty and not want to cuddle them?! These cat dads with cats are adorable :D

I had a traumatic experience with a feral cat when I was like, 5. Hated them until a couple years ago when the internet changed my mind!
