If you're a cat owner, then you know that the myth about cats being cold is wrong. Cats are just misunderstood because for some reason they're always compared to dogs. They have a different way of showing affection, but that doesn't mean that they don't have feelings. 

Tumblr cat owners know that well, and after a post about the most amazing cat went viral, they began sharing their own stories as well, and they are all so heartwarming and beautiful. Cats are amazing, they are not cold-hearted at all, and if you think that they don't have feelings, you are very, very wrong. These stories prove as much

Once a week, we will be featuring an extraordinary animal account on Instagram! Their story, the adorable pictures, and pawesome videos! This week's spotlight goes to Mango Brown, the most affectionate Bengal kitty!

People who have no pets seem to truly have no idea what they're missing. The love and joy that an animal brings into a household, the brightness and pure positivity. And it's important to remember that, of course, you're not the only one who's made happy by their presence, but that they're also made happy by yours. 

There is nothing more gratifying in the world when you have a pet than seeing that pet love you back. Whether you see in the way they snuggle with you or in the way they just chill next to you, when animals love, they love hard. And it is the most beautiful thing in the world. 

So, if you know anyone who's considering adopting, show them these pictures, and their mind will hopefully be set on "yes".

Wolves may normally be depicted as scary, snarling, evil creatures - the big bad wolves, right? - but they're also known as some of the most affectionate, cutest animals out there. They're always running in packs, they howl if they're separated from their pack, sometimes as a signal, sometimes just to show some love, and some of them even mate for life. 

These terrifying creatures really know how to love each other, and the do it in the sweetest ways possible, nuzzling each other, randomly placing their heads on each other. A little like doggies. They even wag their tails when they're happy. And since these wolves are happy and in love, and we love them, we've decided to let some of this love envelop us in these stressful days, since we all need a little wholesome love right about now. 

We know that summer is technically over. But it is never over in our hearts, and we miss hanging out at the beach so so much. So, we decided that we wanna feel the sun on our skin and the wind in our hair through some wholesome pictures of animals absolutely loving the beach. 

It's not just the animals you expect enjoying the beach either. It's cats and kangaroos and elephants. Everyone loves the beach, and we love all of these animals. These pics are for anyone looking for some summery feels, and we hope they bring you at least a hint of the joy they brought us. And if summer is not your thing, here are some cats enjoying autumn. 

Cats are mysterious creatures... aloof, indifferent... So, you would think. 

However, they're more affectionate and lovey-dovey than people realize. Cats do show love in different ways, but they do show it. It can be simple things like being in whatever room you are. Or it can be very obvious where they come to lay right on top of you and start licking your nose. 

Cats are loving animals, you love them and they'll love you right back. Here are 17 fool-proof reasons to love cats:

We don't need our pets to tell us they love us, they show it in so many ways...you just have to notice them. 

Here are a few ways our beloved pets show us how much they love us:

1. Just how happy they are to see us. Always. I don't know about you, but every time I enter the room where my cat is currently residing -- he gets so excited! When if it's only been 5 minutes since our last encounter. Our pets are so ecstatic just to be near us! Think about that!

2. Those eyes. Who needs words when you have those deep, super-duper loving eyes staring into your soul? That says more than enough. 

3. The little gentle touches, or quirks, they do. For example, your cat may run up to you and stop right before reaching you and suddenly turn to the left or right, but doing so right in front of you. They want you to make that extra step and love them back. And we 100% do, every time. 

Our pets adore us and we adore them. We figure it's a good moment to go give them a big hug and kiss.
