There is a remarkable friendship that has flourished for almost seven years between a Siberian husky and a kitten in San Jose. This bond started as a nurturing relationship but has evolved into an unbreakable companionship that leaves a lasting impression on everyone who witnesses it.
The story commences with a beautiful long-haired mixed-breed cat named Rosie, who was discovered by Thi Bui, one of the founders of Mini Cat Town, a non-profit organization that rescues kittens. Rosie was found on the city streets at a very young age of two and a half weeks, and she was in a serious condition due to malnourishment and sickness. Fortunately, Rosie was brought to Mini Cat Town’s adoption center, where Thi provided her with round-the-clock care to nurse her back to health. Despite the care, the possibility of Rosie’s survival seemed bleak after her first night. Instagram user Lilothehusky shared that Rosie appeared to be weak and unwell. Thi made a crucial decision to introduce Rosie to Lilo, her Siberian husky companion. From there on, Rosie found comfort in Lilo’s company and even began nursing from her. Lilo stepped up as a loving mother, and their friendship blossomed from the beginning. Lilo’s unbreakable spirit and unwavering love have created an extraordinary bond that surpasses all expectations.
Thi, who is responsible for taking care of both Lilo and Rosie, shared her experience with The Epoch Times. She expressed how Lilo has always shown compassion towards Rosie from the beginning. Thi explained that not only did Lilo take care of Rosie after meals, but she also helped her nurse, despite not producing any milk. After receiving Lilo’s tender care for a few weeks, Rosie made a remarkable recovery and was able to join her furry friends on outdoor walks. Thi observed the inseparable connection between Lilo and Rosie over time, which led her to make a heartwarming decision to adopt Rosie herself. She firmly believed that separating the two friends would be unfair. Thi officially adopted Rosie on National French Fry Day in June 2015.
As the years went by, Rosie’s unique personality bloomed. At the age of seven, Rosie is full of curiosity and intelligence, and she expresses her dissatisfaction through gentle warnings when things don’t please her. When left behind by Thi and her family, Rosie’s vocal protests can be heard, showing her fearless nature. Lilo, now nine years old, and Rosie have become an inseparable duo. They choose each other’s company over interacting with other animals in the household. Whether they are napping or going on outdoor adventures like hiking, kayaking, paddleboarding, or even car rides with their heads out the window, their bond remains unbreakable.
The unique and special friendship between Lilo and Rosie goes beyond just their own group of friends. The professional kitty sitter who takes care of them has taken to social media to share their amazing journey and daily adventures with the world. She truly believes that their deep bond can inspire countless people.
Their connection has even helped to save over 1,200 kittens through Mini Cat Town, and the organization is now getting ready to open a second adoption floor in the Bay Area. Thi, who runs Mini Cat Town, is incredibly grateful for all the support they have received for Lilo, Rosie, and the rescued kittens. Their story continues to spread hope and kindness.
