One of the weirdest things about me: I don’t like animals much. I don’t find dogs or cats cute or comforting. I would NOT like to even have a pet. But… I recently had an appreciation for the idea of caring for animals and having a pet may not be that bad…

What made me change my mind? These movies  which feature friendships and loyalty between man and animal. I couldn’t help but cry when I watched these. So whether you’re a pet or animal lover or not I’m sure you’ll appreciate the picks of movies for non pet loving folks.
