The photos can be divided into two catagories:

Animals and people expressing affection for one another.

Animals that happen to have been in that position when the picture was taken.

That one of the lady with Jupiter the lion just gets to me. *sniff* You can see how grateful Jupiter is - she saved him and he knows it. He is just the sweetest big kitty. I could use a hug from that guy!

All animals - big and small - are very intelligent, perceptive, and have emotions and it's about time they were treated as such.
