10 Cats Who Are Overly-Attached

By Devan McGuinness |

10 Cats Who Are Overly-AttachedIn my experience, having the words “cats” and “overly-attached” in the same sentence wouldn’t make any sense.

To me, cats are pretty independent creatures, which is a huge reason why I love them so much. I like that they don’t need your constant attention, yet when they want some love they come and seek you out. I like that, for the most part, they’re not under your feet trying to get you to play with them or pay attention to them.

The sentence really kind of seems like an oxymoron when I think about it, but I’ve come to realize that perhaps all cats are not made this way.

There are some cats who — maybe due to a social anxiety issue — can’t or won’t leave you alone and must know what you’re doing at all times. No matter where you are. They exist and I’ve got photo proof.

Check out these 10 cats who are totally over-attached:
