We all know it. Cats are jerks! But, maybe, we've got them all wrong?
A study published Monday in the journal Current Biology suggests cats form bonds with their humans; similar to dogs and even our own human babies.
A study developed in the 1970's to determine "attachment style" between parents and infants was used. A cat with secure attachment knows you'll take care of it. A cat with insecure attachment may be timid or cautious when it sees you.
"We're looking at cats through dog-colored glasses," cat expert Jackson Galaxy told NBC News. "We are disappointed in them because they don't wag their tails, meet us at the door, demonstrate in a way that humans innately recognize that they love us."
