Abuelo loves Oliver

We have a cat named Oliver who was raised with dogs & used to sleep with our old dog & even groomed her. Now we have a  Lab who likes to chase Ollie so Ollie stays on the basement stairs watching us thru the baby gate for most of the day. When Abuelo discovered Ollie sitting there he was fascinated. I opened the gate & the boys tentatively sniffed noses & ears. Then Ollie came up into the hall & Abuelo noozled him & tried to gently pull Ollie closer to him & rested his head on Ollie's back. Oliver responded by licking Abuelo's muzzle.
Now every morning when he comes out of his crate, Abuelo rushes over to the baby gate to greet his buddy. He checks in with Ollie several times a day too. I'm sure that if Ollie & Abuelo were alone in the house it wouldn't be long before they would be sharing a dog bed.
It's soooo sweet ;)
