This Cat And Bearded Dragon Are Inseparable Best Friends
Some friendships make perfect sense, and others start with a cat, a bearded dragon, and a whole lot of curiosity. This one falls firmly into the second category, because Baby the cat and Charles the bearded dragon were never supposed to become inseparable.
Instead, their owner gave them a chance to coexist, and the result was a surprisingly sweet bond that turned into a full-on internet favorite. Between the cuddles, the playtime, and the tiny moments that make them look like they belong together, this pair keeps proving that unlikely companions can steal the show.
And once you see how comfortable they are together, it is hard not to keep watching.
1. Unusual Love
We're sure most people don't think of lizards as affectionate pets, and we're also sure most people assume a cat would be more likely to hunt and slowly devour a lizard. But when it comes to Charles and Baby, they certainly broke the mold.
2. Breaking the Mold
Even the owner of this unusual pair initially worried that Baby might hurt Charles. But what happened instead was that they bonded and became the best of friends.
3. Cuddle Therapy
The two also like to cuddle and snuggle during thunderstorms because Baby is usually scared of the thunder. But with Charles by her side, she remains calm, cool, and collected.
4. Teamwork
Not only are the pair inseparable pals, but they also work together to guard and protect their home. See? Cute.
Charles and Baby’s unlikely friendship is the same kind of “partner in crime” energy as cat duos bonding so hard you’ll want to adopt a second feline.
5. Selfie Time!
The two even take selfies together, and nobody seems to mind if the camera catches Baby mid-blink because it's still so cute.
6. Playtime
The unusual duo doesn't just cuddle and snuggle; they also play games like tag together!
7. Love Buddies.
If this isn't true love, we don't know what is.
8. Friends That Eat Together...
These adorable buddies even enjoy their meals together, and for now, they don't steal from one another's bowls.
9. Claws to Paws
Have you ever seen anything cuter than this? Charles has her claws on Baby's paws while they nap together. My heart can barely take it.
The pair is growing in popularity on their Instagram account, where you can keep up with their adorable shenanigans. But for now, this video should satisfy all your cat-dragon-love needs:
Friendship can be such a beautiful, random, and strange thing. We bond with people we might have had the wrong first impression about. But what about those of us stuck in the Friendzone? It's an actual thing, and it's devastating.
