Concerned Pet Owner Notices Mischievous Cat 'Sneaking Up and Swatting' Family's Dog, Crowdsources Behavioral Advice

Hey, pals! Cats sure do have an interesting way of expressing affection! Sometimes you can't help but wonder how a cat's brain operates. But don't waste too much time thinking about it, because we humans can never fully comprehend what goes on in our precious feline companions' minds. Today we are featuring a super silly exchange between a newly adopted catto and its doggo sibling. Turns out, this cat has a very strange and totally abnormal feline behavioral trait in which he likes to sneakily approach the doggo and then take a playful swat at him. We are being sarcastic to be clear, this kind of behavior is absolutely normal and it's the cat's way of being playful with his new sibling. 

Of course, it can take some time for an adjustment like bringing a new pet into a household can settle. But we are pretty sure that this doggo (and now cat!) owner has nothing to worry about. In an update, OP even said that when given some time, the cat and dog quickly grew closer and even started cuddling together! How cute!
