Wholesome Stories Of Adorably Aloof Cats Finally Choosing Their Human

Earning a cat's affection is normally not easy. They are naturally suspicious creatures, especially those of them who may not have come from the best of circumstances, so for them to show their humans trust and love is not an easy task. Some cats will take a few days to get used to their new environment and people and will grow to trust you quickly. Others might take years.

A post on Reddit went viral of someone sharing the absolute unparalleled joy they felt when their cat finally chose to rest on them for the first time in 10 whole years. Goodness, was the wait for it. Other users chimed in, sharing their own stories of their cats finally, finally, choosing them, and we found each one of them incredibly heartwarming.

This picture is the encapsulation of pure, unadulterated joy. Just looking at it brings a smile to our faces. We each cherish the love and affection shown to us by our cats every single time it happens, so we truly can imagine the feeling that this person is experiencing. We hope many, many more cuddle sessions are in your future, you lovely human.

My lovely cat took to trusting me rather quickly, but she has always had trouble trusting people beside me. After living with her for years, everyone I live with is stunned whenever she comes to them of her own volition - with no snacks as bribes, calling me over to see or snapping pictures to send to me. It is always amazing to see her being so affectionate with others.
