An explosion of tenderness
In the video in question, the Cane Corso is lying on the ground in front of an adorable kitten with a tabby coat. From the height of its 59 kg, the huge dog looks at the tiny ball of hair of barely 20 g with great kindness and love.
Since posting, more clips featuring the duo have been shared. We can see in particular Standard take care of the young feline, as if he considered him a full member of the family. Sessions of teasing and games are on the agenda!

The dog’s owner, who set up a foster family for an association, picked up the kitten after it was left ” almost for dead in a box “. Within this loving home, the survivor responding to the name of sonic recovered and managed to move forward with the help of its benefactors. After going through this terrible ordeal, the little feline discovered love with a capital “A”, as well as security.
Given the special relationship that the 2 animals have had since their 1time meeting, the volunteer seriously considered keeping him by her side forever…
@normthehousehippo Watch the end, it’s worth it
