Friendships of all kinds are beautiful and should be savored, no matter what or who they consist of. This holds true for animals as well, as they tend to gravitate toward friendships and relationships too.

Animals exhibit similar behaviors to humans when it comes to relationships and friendships, especially with other animals. They tend to feel the same sorts of connections that we do, which makes these bonds even cuter than they already are.

Friendships help us survive because, as social beings (both animals and humans), we need and strive for that connection. As humans, we have best friends, close friends, boyfriends, and girlfriends.

Animals actually strive for the same things in a sense. We don’t always get to witness or capture animal friendships like we do our own friendships and relationships, so these photos will definitely be worth it.

Animals are adorable when you can tell they’ve made a new friend, whether that be another animal of the same kind, a human, or even a totally different species.

Either way, it’s still wonderful to witness such adorable relationships between animals. This list will compile 23 examples of very cute sets of animal friends.

Be prepared to be blown away by how adorable and unexpected some of these animals are. Let’s dive into 23 adorable animal friendships that show how much these animals are truly meant for each other.
