Dads Who Are Totally Head-Over-Heels With Their Cats Even Though Things Didn't Start Off That Way

How many times have you heard someone declaring they don't want cats? I've heard at least a couple, but the story always ends the same way -- those who said they would never get a cat got themselves a feline... and now they're the best of best friends.

Some dads prefer dogs over cats. Others prefer having no pet at all. Many dads claim they are not cat people, but put a cute kitten in front of them and they will come around real fast. Maybe cats have their own way of making people fall in love with them. It could be the adorable, cute eyes? Or the tiny paws? Or the charming purr?

I'm not quite sure... but here's one thing I do know: these 19 dads were cat haters, but ended up totally head-over-hills with their cat best friend!
