Cat Headbutts Are A True Sign Of Love

Cats headbutt people and other animals as a way of telling you that they love you. You see all kinds of cats doing this - from house cats to big wild cats. It's basically their adorable way of saying "hey, you- yeah, you, you're part of my squad, now I must show it with the butting of the head against your person and stuff." 

If a cat headbutts you, you should truly feel honored. And whether we understand why a cat headbutts or not, it really does feel special and always melts our hearts. We can really feel the luuurv in the headbutt even through the screen. These pictures that we've collected of cats doing the butt of the head are absolutely adorable, and we hope they put a smile on your face.
