Ralphee the kitten has a neurological disorder called feline cerebellar hypoplasia (CH), which causes her to walk in an unusual way
She became friends with Max the cattle dog, who watches over her in their home in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
Ralphee waggles her head, walks unsteadily and sometimes leaps around - but is not in pain and is as intelligent as other cats

Kitty ping and doggieping
Great story and video. Noticing these type of stories more and more. Are there just more of them or is it happening more often that 2 different species bond so well?
Pretty manx. I wouldn’t mind having one again.
Now THAT is a blue heeler.

I have one of these-Great dogs, but they have to have something to do or they can get into mischief.
Ha! Tell me about it. I used to live next door to one that would sneak into my open-front garage (more like a carport) and steal my husband's leather work gloves. We lost several pair before we figured out where they were going. He'd also steal my Golden Retriever pup, and the two of them would wander great distances before we could get them home again.
I don't think it's happening more, it's just that there are channels now dedicated to pet stuff and more folks with the ability to take the videos and post them.........
That could be our Barkley except Barkley has a bit more black on his hindquarters. Best dog ever.
Had smart Shnoodle named Nero who would watch the construction crew arriving at the house under construction next door, then sneak in and steal a lunch or two, sometimes a bag, sometimes a pal. That dog never met a stranger. The dog catcher would come into the neighborhood, just open the door to his truck and Nero would jump in and ride with him the rest of his day. The guy would call us and say ‘Nero’s in jail again. Come get him.’
Just thinking of the lamb will lay down with the lion.
Maternal instinct is the strongest thing on earth. Sweet cat and the pups had no problem with her.
“wobbly cat and the cattle dog”
Sounds like a Cat Stevens album title.
