We have carried the stereotype in our subconscious mind that dogs and cats are naturally antagonistic toward each other, but do they have to be arch-enemies? Our best friends can become friends with each other. Although dogs and cats are certainly different, there is plenty of evidence that they can find common ground and even become best friends.
For this reason, we’ve collected some cute photos of friendships between cats and dogs to prove that all stereotypes have exceptions and that these creatures can be the best of friends. Scroll down to see a few photos that show how dogs and cats can build a lasting bond. We are sure that these photos will change your mind about the cat-dog relationship and even put a smile on your face.
