Ex-boyfriend gets replaced by cat in family photos

A woman decided to touch up her family photos by removing her ex... and replacing him with her cat. 

And we have to say... what an improvement!

Forsberg first met Woof when she was 10 years old. He was just a kitten when she, along with her sisters and parents, adopted him — and they hit it off immediately. 

"He was the most affectionate cat I’ve ever known and would always demand our attention," Forsberg told The Dodo. "Even our friends who don’t like cats loved him."

Woof has been with Chloe through all the ups and downs, and when she and her boyfriend of four years had split up, Woof was again there for her to save the day. 

Chloe realized rather quickly however that being in a long term relationship meant that her ex was in many of her family photos. Most recently, her cousin's wedding. 

Her sister then came up with a creative and hilarious plan to... touch them up. 

"Emily is a very creative person and my family tend to deal with bad situations by using humor," Forsberg said. "So even though I was quite upset at the time, it made me laugh a lot!"  

It wouldn't be Woof's last appearance as a boyfriend replacement, however. Emily later worked him into a family photo from another wedding. 

"This time she replaced our other sister's boyfriend, Chris, just in case they ever break up," Forsberg said. "They just got engaged, so we're hoping it won’t be needed!"

It started off as a hilarious joke, but the pictures have taken a new meaning. 

Woof, at the ripe old age of 16, had passed away. 

"It’s been quite a nice way for him to be remembered," Forsberg said. "Woof loved me and our family unconditionally and was always around and giving affection. I’m always looking though photos of him and remembering funny stories even a year on."

Share the cute!
