When you have pets, they’re like each other’s siblings in a way. And after looking at these photos of dogs and cats growing up together, you’ll realise the bond between animals is real.
Renley and Lili
When pet owner Sonja Heriban went to adopt a cat, she found two kitties cuddling and decided to adopt them both. To this day, Renley and Lili remain inseparable and insist on snuggling in the bed they have both outgrown!
Fiona and Shrek
Fiona and Shrek have been best buds for three years, and judging by their most recent pics, they now have matching besties jumpers!
Kasi the cheetah and Mtani the labrador
Kasi the cheetah and Mtani the labrador were brought together when they were just three months old at animal theme park in Florida. To this day, they’re still best buds and are a huge draw for visitors.
dogs
Although these two pictures were only taken within a span of three months, one of the pups has certainly been eating his food — and the other doggo probably wishes he could have his couch back.

Kaycee and Max
Kaycee and Max were both born August 7, 2009. Besides the colour of Max’s eyes, not much for the two doggos has changed.
Whiskey and Munky
This adopted pup named Whiskey took an immediate liking to his bunny roommate, Munky, and remained best of friends until Munky died of old age in 2016. Moment’s silence, please.
