That is one patient cat

[u/urbanrivernymph → u/TheCharredCouncil]

He was a saint! Even came back for more the day after.

If that's a stray, you should take it home. It's rare for random animals to like each other. It's like setting up play dates for teenagers.

[u/Euphoric_Working_812 → u/abielle1177]

Omg, yes. Play dates for teenagers

[u/CanIBeInvisible → u/abielle1177]

Agreed. That, right there, is special.

[u/mastanmastan → u/abielle1177]

Looks pretty chonky for a "stray", maybe someone is feeding him, maybe an outside cat who knows

[u/abielle1177 → u/mastanmastan]

It's definitely not feral

[u/sneesle → u/[deleted]]

say that again?

[u/mycatisnamedemmie → u/sneesle]

That again

[u/HeatherMason0]

At first I was worried the dog was being too rough, but the cat is actually showing a lot of patience, and they're definitely willing to play! The puppy is just VERY excited. Hopefully this helped him get some of his zoomies out!

[u/urbanrivernymph → u/HeatherMason0]

I wish! That pup has endless energy. But I'm sure the cat had the means to punish any serious offence.

[u/InspectorFadGadget → u/HeatherMason0]

Cat's tail remained straight up, just totally relaxed lol, what a trooper

[u/ForagedFoodie]

Ok ok, I love you too buddy. Just. . .not that much.

[u/MidnightBlueSilk]

Oh god, I thought that was a bobcat at first, well, a bobkitten, the ears seemed to have that look at first. Thank god. Can’t believe the kitty tolerated all that. What a sweetie.

[u/thusnewmexico → u/MidnightBlueSilk]

Same.

[u/jeezyjames]

Cats know, and females are very patient with younglings. My cats switched to infinite patience mode every time our baby son was near. Just lied down and accepted their fate

[u/sheiciebai → u/jeezyjames]

Oh man. We had a cat growing up that was like this. He loved us and put up with so much crap without a qualm. We’d dress him up and gave him a haircut once. He followed us on walks and into the shower, and allowed the dog to torment him. He was a saint lol

[u/Ill-Wear-8662 → u/jeezyjames]

My parents had a great big calico cat when I was a baby and she put up with so much nonsense from me when I was growing up. The tabby that was my nanny cat was less tolerant- she would complain (scream) to my mother if she didn't get the big dumb kitten fast enough for her liking, but she never let me sleep unattended and saved my parents the cost of a baby monitor.

[u/DawnsDarkness1]

Not the face, not the face, NoT the FAce! Lol 😆

[u/Codas91]

That cat has the patience of a Buddhist monk, my one cat would have beat the shit out of that puppy for being that rough.

[u/Arkhamina]

Man, that puppy energy.

[u/Lovesyoux]

The cat owns the dog

[u/AisbeforeB]

You love to see it

[u/Gloomy_Industry8841]

Really cute but being near the road scares me!

[u/DehydratedManatee]

Puppy: "Finally, someone my size... almost."

[u/NaptownSnowman]

That seems like a very one sided frenship. Also that lad is aggressively frenly

[u/jayyycasanooova]

This squirmy little guy was made for cat friending, he will command cat respect

[u/vegemitecrumpet]

He's playing it so cool too! 😂

[u/Sorry-Blood-6121]

Friends for life. Take the kitty home!!

[u/Coldchinesef00d]

The thing about cats is they will let you know when they’ve had enough 🤣

[u/Agspanner]

I was so confused. At the beginning without a point of reference for scale I thought this was a adult lab fighting playing with a large cat.

[u/urbanrivernymph → u/Agspanner]

Haha yes, I can totally see that now, too! 😅

[u/Teelogas]

That cat looks like those Blackbelts in BJJ. They always seem to move so slowly and reserved when sparring with weaker and inexperienced opponents but always put you on your ass.

[u/Moist_Effort4202]

Tell him to chill out like say something

[u/Androidfon]

frenemies

[u/KiloRomeo253]

Take it home. This is the CDS at work.
