A Golden Retriever and a tiny kitten became an Internet sensation because of their unlikely friendship. At first, the kitten was hesitant to interact with the adorable dog, but they eventually got along. At that time, the kitten was only four weeks old, and she was found by her rescuer in the field. Since she was alone, her rescuer decided to take her home.
When the Golden Retriever saw her, she instantly felt connected to the ball of fluff in front of her. According to the dog’s fur mom, she has always been friendly with cats, but she and her husband were unsure if she would react similarly to the new family member. Being naturally friendly, this Golden Retriever, Lucy, made the kitten feel welcome in her new home. Her fur parents did not let this touching moment go unrecorded, so she took a video and shared it online.
The heartwarming video entertained the animal-loving online community. The footage showed Lucy getting excited by her new friend’s presence. She expressed her excitement by bouncing around the room with joy. She patiently waited for the kitten to join her, but being a newcomer, the kitten was initially a bit nervous.
Lucy comforted the kitten by gently pawing at her. Little by little, she gained the kitten’s trust. Toward the end of the video, the kitten appeared to have calmed down. Until now, the couple’s daughter continues to share the fantastic duo’s endless friendship and adventures. Lucy’s fur parents also named the kitten Joey, and without a doubt, these two have become inseparable.
There was even a TikTok video showing Joey and Lucy cuddling up. In one of the videos, Joey appeared to be letting her guard down, and it was clear that she had become Lucy’s loyal companion. While Golden Retrievers are expected to be full of love and affection, the friendship of Lucy and Joey is special. Their followers on TikTok hope that their friendship will continue to bloom.
