Who says cats and dogs can’t be best friends? We’ve all heard the saying that they’re like oil and water, but one adorable cat is proving that wrong.
A Reddit user named Imaginary-Cricket903 recently shared a heartwarming photo of their cat taking care of their sick dog. The dog was under the weather and had been ordered by the vet to rest on the couch. The cat, feeling bad for his brother, decided to bring him one of his favorite toys – a worm.
“My dog has been sick and is on a vet-mandated couch-rest,” the Reddit user wrote. “His little cat brother has been tending to him by bringing him his (meaning the cat’s) worm toys. Dog brother is very confused as to why the cat keeps bringing him these.”
The cat’s sweet gesture quickly went viral, with people all over the internet gushing over the unlikely friendship.
“He’s giving him the things he finds comforting to comfort his dog brother. That melts my heart!” one user commented.
The cat’s owner explained that the cat is actually obsessed with these worm-string toys. They are his absolute favorites.
“He must love his dog brother a whole lot to sacrifice even a single worm,” the owner added.
Other users chimed in with funny comments, imagining the cat as a sophisticated gentleman offering his brother a worm to help him feel better.
Thankfully, the dog made a full recovery, and the two furry friends are still enjoying their time together. Their bond is even stronger than before.
This heartwarming story is a reminder that even the most unlikely friendships can blossom. So next time you see a cat and dog together, don’t be so quick to judge. They might just be the best of friends.
