Sirius is actually a double star or binary star system and the two are very close together. If fact, Sirius is so bright, it takes pretty good optics to separate the two...Under good conditions, I've done it...It's not real easy due to the intense brightness of Sirius.

The companion star is called the Pup...

I thought Sirius would be chasing Felineis, oh the Cat Star!
