HEY, cool video!
Well, mama’s good friend, papa’s ex, sent mama a darling video of animals who ordinarily would not be hugging one another, and mama was all touched and sniffly over its cuteness and then papa said, “Did you know that there is a HUGE market for sweet videos of animals who normally would tear each other’s throats out but who are trained to be all cuddly and warm together instead?”
And mama said, “WHAT? TRAINED? You mean that tiger doesn’t really LIKE that bear in real life but is just acting? And that little kitty would just as soon EAT that iguana?”
Oh, boy.
And I couldn’t find the video papa’s ex sent so just put in another cute one.
Well, here’s food for thinking. I really enjoyed this lady’s video and evidently she is famous and has lots of really good videos with text that she writes and her partner films. Love her take on dogs and kitties!
It’s so nice to find an articulate video maker with so many good subjects!
Right now I’m going out in the garden to see if that lizard will let me rub on it…
Uh, I am hoping that this is NOT indicative of the lizard in our garden. Yikes.
I don’t think he need a hug today…
If I were a lizard, I sure would let you rub on me, but then again I would let you rub on my pussycat self. Winks.
Hey, are you angling for a DATE? Whatever that is.
We don’t think you would want to rub on that lizard!
I know, he looks a bit spiky, no?
Awwww – Thanks, Loulou – these videos were sooooo sweet. Mama got a bit nervous seeing the small animals with lions, tigers and bears!! But just hope OUR mamas don’t get any weird ideas – like getting us a pet. I do like the monkey idea though – they like to pet and groom and play and have fun. Hmmmmm……?
Mya, a LITTLE monkey would be perfect. Mama babysat one once and … oh, boy.
I hope you don’t have any lizard that big in your garden 🙂
ME, TOO!
We don’t think he needs a hug today either. We enjoy those videos of different species interacting but the other species always seem to look scared to us when it’s a chimp hugging them.
Yes, we saw that, too, but there are so many videos of chimps and othr animals who look pretty happy.

Here is the ultimate unlikely animal pair – Owen & Mezee – a hippo & a tortoise. The tortoise was marooned after the Indonesian Tsunami.
Oh, thank you for that. I hope the comments readers will see that site, too.
What a BEAUTIFUL story – and so beautifully done!!! MERCI for sharing that!!!!
Loved seeing these two pals!
One of my friends has a bearded dragon in her family and says they are very affectionate, so I think some of those kind of pics of them with a kitty are fur real. And I know from experience that dogs and cats can get along, if they have the right temperaments and if they are introduced young too. So not all of them are trained. Like you and Mya.
