This Man’s Dog Died Of Cancer And His Cat’s Reaction Is Heartbreaking

If the internet has taught me anything, it’s that animals are as cute as they are funny. You could fill Luxembourg three times over with the servers required to store all of the internet’s cat videos. And that’s a true fact – I just made it up. However, you’d be forgiven for momentarily forgetting about our other four-legged friends.

They’re probably feeling a bit upstaged. But having already earned their stripes as man’s best friend, dogs now are hell-bent on capturing the hearts of every living creature. Their unlikely starting point? An old foe. The rivalry between dogs and cats is well-documented and was even turned into a somewhat exaggerated motion picture. However, this endearing story proves that the love between a cat and a dog can be just as strong as that between a human and his pet.

This heart-breaking story proves that animals can experience deep emotions such as mourning and that they truly understand love and companionship. This dog was given days or weeks to live so his owner took him on an epic journey to celebrate his life.
