Wouldn't it be fantastic if more stray cats and surrendered cats found their forever homes? Of course it would!

BriAnne Wills is a professional fashion and beauty photographer living in Brooklyn, New York and she wants to encourage people to adopt cats. To do so, she launched an endearing photo series called "Girls and Their Cats," to remove the stigmas associated with the "crazy cat lady" stereotype.

Willis says: "Girls and Their Cats redefines what it means to be a cat lady through striking portraits and engaging profiles of each woman and her cat—or cats." To date, her series seems to be a resounding success and BrAnne has "photographed over 300 women around the US, all as unique as their feline friends."
