These Photos of Cats With Their Tiny Humans Prove Dogs Have Nothing on Felines

Bringing your baby home is one of the most memorable — and tiring — points in parents' lives. And while there's no doubt that your newborn will take up the bulk of your time, that doesn't necessarily mean that your furry friends need to take a back seat. For pet moms and dads, ensuring your new human hits it off with your furbaby is a top priority — and cats are no exception.

While we totally know that dogs get all the credit for being baby's BFF, cats are also known for getting some serious quality time with teeny bundles of joy. And thankfully, some parents have been quick enough with their phones to capture these sweet moments on camera.

Scroll through to get a peek at some of the seriously adorable photos of cats and their humans to see for yourself, and try not to sprint to your closest pet shelter in the process.
