Lately, we’ve started noticing an unlikely friendship between our dog Reuben, and our kitty Gladys.
Let’s just say they snuggle A LOT.
At first, we thought they were sharing body heat out of pure necessity during some of the colder winter days. But now we’re beginning to realize… they’re just BFF’s.
All these pictures were taken from inside the house, because Gladys is a really nervous jumpy kitty. Also going outside would require putting pants on.
A friend came over the other day, and when she came in the house she said… ‘ummm, I think your kitty was curled up ON TOP of your dog’. And I said ‘YES, that is very likely’.
This one is my personal favorite.
And a side shot.
P.S. we have a batch of kittens that will be ready for adoption the first week in May. If you’re in Iowa and are interested in one, email us at sawdustandembryos@gmail.com… please no hate mail from animal activists for our irresponsible animal ownership.
Love the pet pics! (and your entire blog)
super cute! our cats and dog all snuggle up on our furniture, but are careful not to dare touch. haha
Awww how sweet! Our dog wants to play, the cats don’t. They tolerate him but won’t cuddle like this. I wish they would, how cute yours look! 🙂
My mom has a dog that loves the kitties so much that she winds up curled up in the baby box with them–and the momma cat doesn’t care a whit. –p.s.–we also have baby kitties. They were born in our bed 2 nights ago. Major ick.
Love these pics!My in-laws had a dog(Lab)that would chase the cats during the day but left them sleep with him in his doghouse during the night.(figure that one out:)
So cute!! I love when my yorkies cozy up!!
They are so adorable…I would frame their pics!
Please tell me the lovebirds are allowed into the house.
Nope… we live on an acreage, and our animals are outdoors. Fear not, for they do have access to shelter.
Awww so sweet. We adopted Our cat Daisey from you last summer. Lets just say she is bossy and so fat! But her and my youngest male cat Spook are best friends.

I have a dog Blaze, just like yours….and I think he needs a kitty! Alas, I live way out in Canada, on the easternmost coast.
That is so cute. Leave it to a cat to figure out how to find a warm place to lie down. Your dog must be really mild mannered too.
That is so adorable. My shih-tzu does the same thing with my cat, who was a kitten when I got him-she became a surrogate mother to him.
Adorable! One of our kitties loves our dog, but the other is constantly beating him up and chasing him around the house. Our 50-pound pointer-beagle mix doesn’t seem to know he’s supposed to be the boss!
Wow… that is a pretty serious relationship the two of them have going on! 🙂 I love it!
I wish my pets would do this! 2 dogs and 3 cats and none of them even get near each other… oh yeah, and the dogs want to eat the cats.
^ Robyn just could’t help herself! LOL
Reuben is so cute!! I love him.
No hate mail but please spay and neuter!
Yes, please spay and neuter your animals, specially since they are outdoor pets.
What perfect best friends. I love everything about that!
This is adorable!! Anything to do with animals makes me sappy, and seeing these “unlikely animal friendships” is just the cutest 🙂

Aww that is too cute!
I teared up. I’m such a sap. We have a cat (who is quite the sass-ass right now) but we want to get a dog eventually. and I want them to be BFF’s. just like this.
my heart swells with Awe over this… wow
That is so sweet! I have a cat that loves to snuggle with one of my dogs too. 🙂
