The shelter was wrong when they told this hearty hooman these cat siblings are indifferent to each other, the clingy cute pictures prove otherwise: 'They are virtually inseparable'

Every cat pawrent knows their cat is the most territorial creature in the house. This is why we usually refer to our four-legged fluffy feline friends as the hoMEOWners, or even as the royalty who rule the house kingdom with an iron paw. So we all know how difficult it is to have another cat enter the picture…

This one pawrent-to-be went to the shelter to adopt themselves a cat - already a noble deed. But you know what happens when you go into a shelter - you fall in love with all the cats there. This hearty hooman adopted two siblings, but was told they're not a bonded pair.

But, you know what? Shelters can also be wrong. Are you ready for some clingy, huggable, and downright pawdorable, overly-bonded pairs of cats? This "not a bonded pair" of cat siblings is included. Clutch your heart, it's going to be sweeter than sugar.

Seeing these pictures proves all the misconceptions of the shelter wrong. First of all, shelters can be wrong, despite them being amazing institutions of rescue and adoption. Secondly, looking at these sweet cat hugs is absolutely heartwarming - so, in this specific case, we're glad the shelter was wrong. Look at this “not bonded pair” pairing around like they're inseparable.

It's kind of amazing to see black cats next to each other, and even hugging - they always look like one, double-headed creature.
