I'm looking at pictures of my kitty Tootsie, we found each other when I was 19 and she a sickly abandoned wee kitten. No matter how hard I try, when I see her face, I see a person. Not a cat--not really.

What do you see??

Do you mean do I see a human face when I look at my critters? Um, no, but I do see the face of someone I love. That face just has a lot of hair on it.
Thanks for this!

I see them as animals that depend on me for love, affection and of course the biggy food. When I get home in the afternoon they both come to see me, even though, one kind has to stagger. He has hip problems. He's still always happy to see me. There's nothing like having the love of animal. It's so real.

I see an animal with an adorable face that has a better understanding of human emotion than most humans do.
Thanks for this!

A person, definitely a person, until she growls at the mailman that is.

I see Amy as an adorable animal but as my child. Yes. Definitely as my child!

I see an animal and a person. A different species to me but with the same capabilities of emotion and love.

I love my cat more than I love some people. I talk to her more than I do to some people. I'm not all that into photos of cats or people. To me she's almost human. My little baby
