House Cat And A Wild Deer Became Friends And It’s The Most Adorable Thing Ever
Lulu had a rough start, but one backyard visitor helped turn things around. After being rescued from a hoarding situation, the shy cat slowly began settling into foster care, where she finally had room to feel safe.
Then a local deer started showing up outside the house, and Lulu noticed. What began as curious window watching turned into an unlikely friendship that kept growing day by day.
Now the foster family has a front-row seat to one of the sweetest animal bonds around.

Lulu shared a room with her foster brother, Felix. They got along really well, but Felix soon found a forever home. Lulu’s foster parents were worried that losing a friend would affect her. Luckily, she soon found friendship again.
A local deer began visiting their backyard occasionally, but about a month after Lulu arrived, she started showing up much more frequently. The family grew very fond of her and named her Dolly. It didn’t take long for Dolly and Lulu to form a special bond.

“I noticed Dolly outside and realized she was within view of our foster room, which is in our basement,” Burke says. “So, I ran downstairs to see if Lulu was looking out the window. We have a cat tree placed in front of the window, and Lulu was on the top perch watching Dolly. And Dolly was watching Lulu!”
Obviously, the pair had some sort of connection, which gave birth to a beautiful friendship, making Lulu’s foster family very happy.

“Lulu was very curious about Dolly,” Burke says. “She didn't seem scared at all. Initially, Dolly would watch Lulu from a distance. But it didn't take long for Dolly to come right up to the window and chew on the branches next to the house. Lulu was a bit hesitant the first time Dolly came up so close. But now, it doesn't faze her one bit. She has even fallen asleep on the perch while Dolly is at the window.”
It’s kind of like the abandoned mother deer leaving that tiny fawn, then a kind-hearted cat stepping in as a nurturer, in this story.

Dolly now drops by a few times a day, and the family thinks it's because of Lulu. Dolly loves visiting her friend and seems very concerned about her well-being.

The other cats in the house don’t share Lulu’s fascination with Dolly, but she doesn’t care. She loves her friend very much. With so much love in this home, Lulu is on her way to recovery. Soon, she will find a new home. Of course, her foster family will miss her.

“Lulu truly deserves an amazing forever person who will be patient and give her the time needed to feel safe so she can be loved fully and spoiled rotten,” Burke says. “But that adoptive home might need to have some deer neighbors!”
That sounds like a pretty specific adoption requirement.
After Lulu lost Felix, watch how Thor gets help from a whole family after begging.
