19 Photos Showing There’s a Special Bond Between Kids and Animals

Children who grow up with pets are healthier, less moody, and even have fewer learning problems. Apart from all the benefits of having a pet, they are also endless sources of happiness and pure joy. Our four-legged friends can even be great babysitters, and it’s no wonder kids love them so much.

We at Now I’ve Seen Everything believe pets and children can become best friends. And we chose 19 adorable photos to prove it.
