We love pets because they're faithful companions and a constant source of amusement. I mean, would the Internet even exist
without cat videos? I don't think so. Our dogs and cats might get on our nerves sometimes - like when they barf on the floor or wake us up in at three in the morning - but we always forgive them. Much like children, we can look past their flaws. In fact, pets are better than kids in a lot of ways. My parents always used to tell me, "We wish we would have had a dog instead of you." Good times.
Why do we
love cats and dogs so much? Maybe it's because when we gaze at their expressive faces, we see reflections of our own emotions - happiness, anger, sadness, bewilderment. And sometimes they strike a pose that's eerily familiar, reminding us of our favorite celebrities. Whenever times get tough, we can alway count our silly pets to pick us up and remind us that life isn't so bad.
Here are 19 pets that look like celebrities. You're welcome.

In case you're wondering what that last animal is, it's a caterpillar. I admit, that picture is a bit of a cheat, since a caterpillar isn't really a "pet." But it's a funny picture, so shut up. What are you doing, fact-checking a list comparing animals to celebrities? Chill out. To quote the poet Anatole France, "Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened."
