The idea that cats and dogs can’t get along is something many of us have heard for ages. Yet, time and again, these lovable furballs prove otherwise. Sure, it takes some effort and training, but a peaceful cohabitation between cats and dogs is definitely possible. The heartwarming story below is a perfect example of this.
In the video, a husky named Maeby is snoozing comfortably on the couch. She’s curled up, blissfully enjoying her nap. That’s when Farina, the family cat, notices Maeby’s relaxed state and decides she wants to join in on the cozy rest—by making Maeby her fluffy bed!
Farina starts by “fluffing up” her doggy pillow, kneading Maeby’s fur just like cats do when they’re getting comfortable. You can tell that this isn’t the first time this has happened; Maeby wakes up briefly from the cat’s movements, but she doesn’t seem to mind at all. Clearly, these two are the best of friends, and Maeby is very familiar with Farina’s quirky cat behaviors.
Then comes the real “cat move”—Farina settles herself down on top of Maeby, in a way that truly establishes her as the queen of the house, while Maeby seems to be the ever-patient friend. The cat simply plops her backside right on Maeby’s face. It’s both amusing and adorable!
If you’re using a friend as a cozy bed, wouldn’t you at least avoid putting your butt in their face? Well, not if you’re a cat! That’s just how they do things. But this interaction is too cute to be bothered by such formalities.
The video, which has already racked up over 2 million views on YouTube, has won the hearts of animal lovers everywhere. The comments are full of admiration for this unusual friendship:
One viewer pointed out, “The cat gets a furry mattress and the dog gets a fluffy blanket, win-win scenario.”
Another chimed in with, “The cat has to fluff up the dog first. Obviously, two very good friends. I love it.”
And a third added, “It’s clear they have gone through this ritual before. Very cute.”
Watching them snuggle up together is the ultimate sign of comfort and trust! It’s not just about a cozy spot; it’s about sharing space in a way that shows true friendship.
According to the website Wag, Huskies and cats can be great companions if they receive the right training and supervision. “Start training as early as possible when your Husky is still a puppy and be prepared to maintain this training throughout his lifetime… Before beginning, ensure that your Husky has basic obedience under his belt. Important commands will be ‘sit,’ ‘stay,’ and ‘leave it.’ Any other commands are a plus, but these can come in handy if you find yourself in a situation where you need to maintain control over your dog,” the website advises.
These poor kitties were rescued from an animal cruelty case where they were starved, locked in cages with inches of feces, and received no water or food. Now, these cats need your help!
As Maeby and Farina demonstrate, with proper socialization, cats and Huskies can become the sweetest pair. This heartwarming scene shows that even the most unlikely of animal friendships can flourish.
