Leah Spilka shared photos and a touching story about the unusual friendship of her pets on Imgur.

It all started three years ago when a woman was walking in the field behind her house with her puppy named Opie.

Suddenly, the puppy was attracted to something under the log and refused to leave.

When the woman looked there, she saw a very tiny live kitten, on which maggots were already lying.

The woman pulled the kitten out and took it to the vet. After cleaning and examination, the kitten was given the name Roscoe.

He was in good condition, but needed protection and care.

Having received the necessary advice, Leah began to nurse the kitten.

After 10 days, he opened his eyes, and the puppy Opie did not leave him, as if inquiring about his well-being.

Kitten and puppy started sleeping together. Every day, Roscoe grew up and became stronger.

He befriended not only Opie, but also the other dog in the house.

Three years have passed since then, and they are still friends and sleep together.

Roscoe probably considers Opie his brother.
