How a tiny sweet kitten goes from being scared of to loving and cuddling with a super excited, energetic puppy

At first, when this itty bitty kitty met this puppy, her reaction was fear. He's quick, he's excited, he's a little too much of everything. But it took nearly no time at all for her to change her mind, and the cuddles that ensued are some of the cutest ever. 

Cats and dogs can be best friends. A part of that thinks that this is obvious, but some people still truly believe that they cannot. We, as people who are chronically online, and specifically, chronically in all the cat and dog spaces online, have seen this countless times. Pictures, videos and stories about cats and dogs bonding, becoming inseparable. 

Of course, there is a reason why these beliefs exist. It's true that cats and dogs are very different from one another. Just in the most basic thing, in the wagging of their tail - for a dog, the wagging of the tail is an indication of happiness, and for cats, it's an indication of curiosity at best and strong irritation at worst. 

Usually, for a pair like that to become friends, cats and dogs need to grow up together. That way, they have enough time to learn the differences between one another, to find out the true meaning of all of them. Growing up together is not necessary, though. Some cats and some dogs are simply more patient than most, and they are able to use that patience to learn the meaning of each other's behavior later in life as well, without having to spend their childhoods together. 

And sometimes… on rare and beautiful occasions, none of that is necessary. Sometimes, cats and dogs bond with one another instantly. They meet one another, and within no time, they are fast friends. They choose one another the same way that they choose their humans. That is what happened in this video. 

The kitten and pupper here did not know one another, but they also did not need years to bond, to learn. They just needed a couple of minutes. The doggo, with his excitement and persistence, kept approaching the kitten. And then the kitten, after the initial shock of meeting him, realized that the excitement was just that, and it wasn't anything to be scared of. Just like that, within no time at all, this kitten went from fearing this puppy to cuddling with it. And yes, the cuddles are indeed as cute as you imagine.
