Affectionate Cat Breeds Who Just Want Your Love

Most cats love cuddling just as much as dogs, but these cat breeds are especially affectionate.
It's a common misconception that cats don't necessarily need humans to have a happy life. While it is undeniable that cats are more independent than dogs, some cat breeds are known to be more cuddly than others and rely on humans for those said cuddles.

Cheryl Hogan of The International Cat Association (TICA) offered her two cents on cat breeds she knows to have more a connection to their human counterparts. She told Pet MD that the following nine cat breeds are more likely "to go out of their way to snuggle right into your heart."

While all cats have unique and special personalities, these affectionate cat breeds seem more interested to sit on laps than being alone.
