A cute black and white neighborhood cat has formed the sweetest friendship with a dog and has since inserted itself into the canine’s family’s life.
Anyone who has ever had the privilege of owning a cat knows they have their own unique, quirky personalities. They do what they want, when they want and trying to get a feline to do otherwise is waging a losing battle. Cats are independent-minded and can be extremely stubborn.
But much like humans, cats are creatures of habit. They tend to do the same thing on an ongoing and consistent basis. Everyone enjoys some predictability and routine, especially our furry and four-legged friends.
In a clip posted on YouTube, a neighborhood, black and white cat named Oliver kept showing up, day after day, on the front porch of one family’s house. It never failed, every day, there was Oliver, lounging on the front porch.
Later in the clip, Oliver, whenever his buddy, Gunny, a dog, would be out for a walk with his owner, would show up and tag along. It did not matter the time, Oliver would pop out of nowhere and join the walk. Despite how cats and dogs are often portrayed, Oliver and Gunny are close friends.
“As soon as we start our walk, they look for each other,” the woman who narrates the clip says.
But Oliver the cat was not satisfied with simply hanging out on the front porch and joining in on the walks, he now enters the house. When in the house, Oliver selects one of the many places to sleep inside the residence.
Oliver has started coming into the house so much that, as the woman in the video states, they have added a little cat door for Oliver to come in and out as he pleases.
Cats are cute, lovable and cuddly and, as Oliver demonstrates in the clip, very persistent and insistent, doing what they want, when they want.
