Why This French Bulldog and Sphynx Cat Are So Close

The sweet dog-cat friendship is so charming, especially during these legendary cuddle sessions.

It's amazing when some dogs become obsessed with their cat siblings. So why do some dogs like cats more than others?

A lot of their affection for cats is based on instinctive behavior.

Dogs, which are descendants of wolves, have always been interested in smaller animals.

Now, yes, they may see cats as prey, but they may also see them as playmates.

But even though dogs may see kitties as prey, because dogs are now domesticated and (hopefully) well fed, their cat siblings are more fun playmates.

Especially with the agility and sneakiness of cats, these kitties make for great and stimulating playmates.

But also remember that dogs are pack animals, and hopefully they look at cats as part of the pack and not intruders in their territory.

Clearly, Bennett, the Frenchie, views this beautiful Sphynx kitty as part of his pack!

Why Some Dogs Become Obsessed With Their Cat Siblings

Dogs and cats can also have strong emotional bonds if they are both properly socialized early on in their lives.

The fact that we see this cat remain calm even though Bennett is almost smothering her with love is a sign that she is fond of her canine companion.

According to Stephanie Gibeault, CPDT, certain dog breeds, such as the toy group and sporting group, are more likely to develop strong bonds with cats.

Clearly, this Frenchie is also part of that group!
