Warmhearted Golden Retriever Finds and Rescues a Stray Kitten During His Walk
Most people think that dogs and cats are arch enemies. But in truth, they can get along quite well.
According to the American Kennel Club, there are specific breeds that are more likely to get along with cats than others. So, with the right pair, a cat and dog can have a harmonious and friendly relationship.
One example is the Toy Group. These loving and sociable dogs were bred to be lap warmers and companions.
Another is the Sporting Group, whose members are very genial. These easygoing dogs love making friends with almost anyone they encounter, including felines.
Golden Retrievers, in particular, are playful creatures. They are very adaptable and sociable, making them excellent companions for cats.
What we know as man's best friend can also be a best friend to any other species, including cats. We may have seen countless videos of cats and dogs being great buddies.
But you cannot deny how heartwarming each one is. Today, we're looking at a story of a caring dog's compassion for a cat.
Your heart will be touched when you witness how caring the dog is toward the poor kitten. It will probably make you forget that these two species are stereotypical enemies.
The loving dog went out on a walk with his owner just outside the city.
The Golden Retriever saw a malnourished kitten. Instead of ignoring the little one, the dog gently picked him up with his mouth.
The owner was waiting for the dog. The Retriever brought the poor, malnourished creature with him to the car.
The owner started the car and drove home because they saw that the kitten seriously needed their help.
Once they got home, the dog's owner fed the little one. Things started to improve for him.
Unexpectedly, the Golden Retriever stayed and watched over the kitten. It seemed that the canine knew the feline was in bad shape at the time.
The dog showed pure love for his newfound friend, giving the cat all the care he needed.
After the kitten recuperated, the Golden Retriever took his new friend wherever he went.
They became inseparable best friends. The bond they formed is truly heartwarming.
This tells us that animals, no matter what kind they are, can get along very well. We ought to learn from these two friends, too!
Here's the video of the Golden Retriever and his cat best friend.
While it is true that Golden Retrievers can be loving toward cats, they're not the only ones who can live peacefully with felines.
The American Kennel Club adds that any dog is capable of socializing with cats. A proper introduction between the two creatures can help them live peacefully with one another.
It's also important that the cat has an escape route in case the dog gets too playful. Don't leave them unattended unless they're already used to each other's company.
The personalities of these pets are also a factor. For example, older cats may not have the energy to play with active puppies.
Thankfully, the Golden Retriever and the kitten are a good match. We're pretty sure they'll be the best of friends for a very long time.
