Own a pet and you’ll never have to worry about having no one to admire you. They’ll follow you wherever you go, shower you with kisses, comfort you when you are sad, and fall asleep right next to you. Of course, you’ll have no privacy, but then again, that is pretty trivial compared to the unconditional love you’ll receive.

Some lucky pet owners were able to capture their pet’s affection for them in heartwarming photos. Bright Side is happy to share them with our readers.

1. The look on her face says it all.

2. We already know they are going to be best friends for life.
