A lot of families choose Golden Retrievers as their pets since they are even-tempered, intelligent, and affectionate. They are playful, yet are very gentle with children and they tend to get along really well with other pets.

These are also medium-sized dogs, which means that they like being active. Since they are bird dogs at heart, they prefer having a good game of fetch or a swim.

Retrievers also like taking walks outside, and one heroic dog came back with a stray kitten whom she rescued!

The dog’s heroic act has been recently making rounds all over social media as it warms people’s hearts. The video is composed of clips of the two, from the moment they first met to their daily activities at home.

Although at the beginning it’s heartbreaking to see how tiny and frail the stray kitten is as the dog carried it in his mouth. The pup then rushed to the back of her owner’s car.

This retriever and her owner seem to have a great relationship since the dog thought it was a great idea to take the kitten back to their house. She wasn’t wrong though because, in the next clip, we can see the owner bottle-feeding the kitten while her savior stayed by her side.

The next part showed how protective the doggo is to her new playmate by carrying the kitten gently anywhere she goes. The kitten also seems to be getting more comfortable in her new home as she plays with her feeding bottle.

Then, just like a mama doggo to her pup, the retriever groomed and cuddled the kitten to make sure that she’s clean all over. She even taught the tiny kitten how to use the cat litter!

It’s also heartwarming to see the kitten getting along with the other animals as they all eat in one large bowl. They even bathe together and of course, slept together in their comfy red blanket.

The caring doggo clearly has a natural mother instinct as she lovingly looks after the baby feline.

Since being uploaded, the video has received positive comments and over 5 million likes. Most of the viewers shared how the video resonated with them but mainly thinks that the duo looks really cute!

The video uploader, Viral Paws wrote: “This is so beautiful and kind, that baby kitty was helpless and starving, so glad the sweet golden saved it. Golden retrievers have a heart full of love and warmth.”

We often hear that cats and dogs are sworn enemies but this video proves that this isn’t entirely true. Who would have thought that the kitten’s supposedly enemy would turn out to be her lifesaver?

This clip is also a great reminder that if animals can instinctively help one another, then we can do that too. We naturally have life-saving instincts so it’s best if we can always lend out a helping hand whenever we can.
