15 Photos & Videos That Prove Cats Can Be Good Boys, Too

Cats are often negatively stereotyped by self-proclaimed "not cat people" as being aloof, uncaring, and un-affectionate. As opposed to dogs, who are seen as man's best friend, Good Boys, if you will.

Cat parents know that this bad rap that cats get isn't true at all. Sure, it's fun to joke around as cat owners that cats see us as their butlers or "staff" who don't care about anyone but themselves. After all, cats were once worshipped as godlike figures in ancient Egypt - and they seem to know it!

But we're here today to prove to those "not a cat person" people that cats can be just as warm and affectionate as dogs in a series of adorable photos and videos. Yes, cats can be good boys, too!
