Stray cat breaks into Lynx's enclosure in the zoo, cuteness ensues when the rescued big cat falls head-over-paws for their new fuzzy feline friend

One of the things we pawsitively love most about cats is that they never fail to surprise you. Fur example, one minute you've searched the entire house and can't find them, then as soon as you give up, they meowgically appear right in front of you on the counter (where they're not supposed to be). They also surprise us with how much they love to make friends with the most random of animals. Cats have been known to adopt otters, sheep, puppies, and now, this stray cat below has adopted a rescue lynx that's living in a zoo.

After sneaking into the lynx's enclosure, everyone got worried. Big cats are still wild, after all. But, the lynx ended up falling head-over-paws for their new fuzzy feline friend, and is obsessed with playing with the kitty and snuggling up next to them. If you were looking for the purrfect heartwarming and awwdorable cat video today, congratulations, you found it! Watch the whole thing below and have a great day!
