Good morning, animal enthusiasts and lovers. We here at Animal Comedy believe that all animals deserve proper love and care. Whether they have four paws, claws, two legs, wings or flippers, we love them all! That goes especially for pigs. We think they're so cute, and if we could, we would totally have one as a pet. Have you ever seen a baby piglet? They're so awwdorable. The video below is about a piglet who was neglected, but finds his safety and wholesome happiness in the most unlikely of places - with a cat!

Doug (the adorable pig) meets Ben (the cat) and thus begins his healing journey. Sometimes, you just need a soft place to sleep and a good friend to help you get through the tough times, right? This heartwarming video of unlikely animal friendships is a real tear-jerker - you can see the peace in Doug's eyes as he cuddles with Ben. Scroll down to see the whole video and comments below!

    emmaveganforanimals â­‘Thank you @totes.the.goat for rescuing Douglas the piglet and giving him the life he deserves. Douglas was rescued in 2021 suffering from the symptoms of severe neglect in the hands of humans that were supposed to protect him. He arrived at sanctuary broken physically and mentally, until he met his soulmate Ben the cat. Seeing such a close bond between a pig and a cat really makes you wonder how society can deem them so different. All animals are the same in the inside. They

    brontepiccles Thank you for helping baby Doug. Inside animals are like us. They hurt as we do. They love & bond as we do. They certainly ask for very little but time spent, patients & understanding. The rewards they give us in return are endless. Dougs eyes are the soul to his heart. He needs just to be loved & wanted as we ALL do bless him.

    majka_pet That's right the animals are all the same have feelings and I think more noble than ours, these images fill the soul with love and give one more reason to be vegetarian and take care of every living animal that dwells on earth

    fred_charlotte _ My cats and pigs used to get along better than anyone. They stayed pretty close to each other throughout most of the day and slept together almost every night.
