Dogs may be man's best friend [1], but there's another four-legged creature that commands just as much love, attention, and awws — cats. Though felines have a reputation for being a bit frosty, they are actually quite friendly. And that's most obvious when they are spending some quality time with our tots. In honor of National Cat Day (yes, it's a real holiday), we scoured the Internet for the most adorable photos of children and cats, and we found plenty! So if your mood needs a little lift, read on for sweet snaps of kids and kittens for an instant dose of happiness.
