One of the world's most popular companions, cats win our hearts in myriad ways from their playful nature and adorable purrs to their fiercely independent nature. Cats are also loved for their expressive eyes, adorable paws and fur. Cats are quite affectionate but their way of expressing their love may be different from dogs. They often show their love with gentle headbutts, purring, and spending time in their owner's company. While cats are frequently stereotyped as aloof and independent, there are a number of cat breeds that are known for their friendly nature and ability to bond well with dogs.
