This is a story about Ichimi the kitten and Ponzu the dog, and their fast and adorable friendship.
|
When tiny Ichimi first arrived, Ponzu didn't know what to make of this little mewling ball of fur. |
|
Most kittens would be scared of such a large dog. Not Ichimi, she loved Ponzu's soft fur. |
It didn't take long for the tiny kitten to accept Ponzu as her new parent. |
And Ponzu was delighted to serve as a dad to this adorable little cat. |
The two of them do everything together. |
They play ongoing games of 'got your nose', with alternating winners. |
When Ponzu gets tired, Ichimi just keeps going by herself. |
Even the best of friends may fight, though. |
Watch out, such intensity. |
What horror. |
|
But when all is said and done, a good cuddle settles all arguments. |
As the weeks turned into months, little Ichimi started looking more like a cat and less like a ball of fluff. |
But their bond never weakened. |
They spent Ichimi's first Christmas together. |
And Ichimi just loved her present from Ponzu. |
Not that Ponzu didn't love his gift too, although he wasn't sure what it, in fact, was. |
No matter what the future brings, these two will keep enjoying their cuddles. |
And their friendship will stay strong. |
With lots of hugs and nap times. |
Stay adorable, you two, and all the blessings to you both. |
