Being cute to humans was an evolutionary advantage. That's the look of a shrewd and calculating hunter. Cats have domesticated humans, not the other way around, they still pretty much do their own thing and are largely resistant to training, but we still keep them around and feed them because we think they're adorable little derps. Meanwhile they're in the back yard demolishing the local bird population.
