Golden Retriever Carries Stray Kitten Home In Its Mouth

Mar 17, 2020

Heroes come in all shapes, sizes, and genders. They also come in all species as this Golden Retriever demonstrates by taking a stray kitten home with it.

Golden Retrievers have a reputation as wonderful family dogs. This featured pet is no exception. This Golden Retriever was living a happy life as an indoor/outdoor pet with a loving family.

All that changed one day when the dog was on its daily outdoor adventure. Apparently, the Golden Retriever spotted a lone kitten in distress. Parental instinct kicked in, and soon, the dog was carrying the stray kitten in its mouth.

The dog then brought the poor, ailing creature to the one place where it stood the best chance of survival: the dog's home. Once the Golden Retriever entered through the kitchen door, it showed a heart of gold to match its gleaming fur. The kitten was immediately brought into a bedroom and placed on a soft, warm blanket.

Now that the cat's healing journey had begun, the dog could have easily left the kitten in better hands to go back to its everyday routine. Instead, the dog was there every step of the way, watching the kitten gobble bottle after bottle and take its first wobbly steps around the house. The dog even nestled the kitten between its paws so they could rest.

Talk about a happy ending! Isn't it adorable to see these two snuggled up together? Perhaps you have a pet or human hero tale of your own. Take a few moments to tell us all about your story in the comments and be sure to pass this cute story along to your friends and family.
