Your favorite Game of Thrones character and your pet have a lot in common: You love them despite their flaws, they don't always play nicely with others and neither lives as long as you'd like.

Considering all that, it seems fitting that pets and Game of Thrones characters would one day be combined. Today, friends, is that day.

Splendid Beast, a company that specializes in creating quirky customized oil paintings of pets upon request, has created a line of Game of Thrones-themed images just in time for the show's April 12 premiere.

If that doesn't sound like the best thing ever, take a look at what they've created and see the glory for yourself.
