Oscar Wilde famously claimed that life imitates art. However, I have a feeling he likely didn't mean it quite as literally as the photos in the list below show.
You can't deny that the dogs, cats, and other critters certainly have an uncanny resemblance to their artistic surroundings — and that it makes each picture all the more adorable! Though some of the "art" may have been purposeful recreations by their doting owners, most are simply moments of discovering accidental doppelgängers. For instance, I can't imagine how lucky the woman in #6 felt when she dove into the ocean one day and found herself greeted by the real-life version of her tattoo.

1. Famous Face
Hopefully this little guy doesn't let his celebrity-level good looks go to his head.
2. Challenge Accepted
If the cat on the wall can do it, so can she.
3. Hide-And-Seek
You know he's probably making that exact face behind there, too.
4. Morning Mug
Looks like this droopy guy could use a cup or two to perk up, too.
5. Noble Pose
She can't help but feel like someone's watching her.
6. Sea-ing Double
The critter must have thought she was hitching a ride with a twin.
7. Trademark Look
This pose looks a lot like it's asking, "Where's dinner?"
8. Purr-fect Match
The cutie in the back seems worried they're getting replaced with these new versions, but the orange fella up front just looks to be plotting their demise.
9. Sandy Shadow
They knew they could never really capture those beautiful eyes, so they didn't bother trying.
10. Fly By
Either someone thought they found some friends or this lady's tattoo artist got really good at details before finishing up the last butterfly.
11. Frame Job
I detect a little more sass in the real-life version of this precious painting, like she's asking, "Really?"
