Cat meets deaf-blind dog: what she does next inspires so many
Web - A cat's special awareness not to frighten his older dog sibling has captured everyone's heart on the Internet.
Cal and Daisy, Colby Roberts' pets, are best friends. She told Newsweek that the two enjoyed fighting and cuddling with each other when they were younger.
However, as Daisy got older, her energy diminished, as did her hearing and eyesight.
In a video posted on the TikTok channel "colbyroberts143", Colby explained that her 15-year-old dog was suffering from cataracts and was "practically deaf".
Cal, the cat, then began to notice Daisy's impaired vision and hearing. Instead of continuing to play as before, he adapted to Daisy's needs.
"Daisy doesn't like to be very active, so Cal approaches cautiously because he knows Daisy is starting to lose her senses," Colby said.
In the video, Cal slightly lifts the rug Daisy is sitting on with his paws to warnthe dog that he is near her.
Cat reacts particularly friendly and empathetically to deafblind dog
Cal slowly sits down next to Daisy and puts his front paw around Daisy's back, then licks her head. The cat's empathy amazed the audience on TikTok .
"That's one of the cutest things I've ever seen," wrote one viewer, while another added: "How thoughtful of this sweet kitty."
One user commented:"Cats are so emotionally intelligent, it's incredible. I've seen different cats of different ages and genders be so protective and gentle with my older dog."
