This Lovely Cat Feels And Acts Like He’s Not Any Different From His ‘Brothers’ (30 Pics)
One American Shorthair cat recently infiltrated a gang of three Shiba Inus, and the dogs don't even realize there's a spy among them!
One Japanese couple have had Shibas for years, but the wife also wanted a cat. "The reason why I wanted to expand our family with a cat rather than a dog was quite simple: I've had a cat in the past," the woman told Bored Panda. "But when I told my husband that I wanted a kitty, I learned he wasn't very fond of cats. I kept at it, but he refused every time. After some time, however, I was able to find a cat we both liked."
The couple started looking for a gray kitty with short fur and standing ears. "I also looked for a breed that was really compatible with dogs. Eventually, we settled on the American Shorthair."
The couple picked a breeder in Kanagawa and soon brought home a new addition to their pack, Kiki. Right from the start, the kitty fit right in. Now, he's become so close to his Shiba siblings, he's even started to act like them!

Kiki's owner got to see just how close he got to the Shibas back in February. "I took Kiki and our dogs to a Shiba Inu party," their mom said. "Kiki was getting along with all the dogs just fine, but one of them suddenly started barking at him. Immediately, one of our Shibas, Saki, barked back, protecting Kiki. At that point, I understood they've become true companions."
Now, Kiki and the Shibas are doing everything together. From napping to exploring the outdoors, they're always by each other's side. "The Shibas are usually quiet at home, so Kiki seems to be able to rest whenever he wants with a peaceful mind," the cat's owner added. "Sometimes Kiki does something athletic before going to bed at night and joins us in the bedroom to get some sleep."
"I often hear that it's the dogs who get used to their owner's sleeping schedule, and cats are the jerks who get up early and wake you up at 4 AM or something like that, but Kiki also sleeps together with the rest of us until morning." Seems like happy families grow alike despite what species their members are.
wait... are one of the four dogs on the right supposed to be the cat-
The cat be like "You brought me to WATER"? ...Dog..."just shut up...shut up..or we'll never get outta here"!
There's nothing wrong with ensuring the pet you get has a suitable temperament, by buying a specific breed from an ethical breeder. Please don't buy breeds that have health issues, like pugs or scottish folds. And if you don't have specific temperament requirements, please consider adopting from a shelter. Always spay and neuter your pets, and remember that a pet is a commitment. Get pet health insurance if you do not have savings. Petition your government to make it illegal to refuse to allow pets in rental accommodation.

These buddies are so calm and well trained. The photographer has some excellent set-ups. The animals are in very good condition, are happy, and seem to enjoy being together. Wins all around.
Shibas are cat software in dog hardware, so not surprised they got along with the cat :)
The human companions have sure done a good job raising these furkids! The photos are all fab... love the relationship between the doggos and their cat-brother.
This article should give much more credit to the owners! Not only did they take time and effort to choose animals that would fit the household, they obviously spend a lot of time training and caring for them!
There is something wrong with this. It seems very forced.... time and time .. and time again. Let them chill!
I’m Erik Mikael resident at Gothenburg Sweden , I am a single Father blessed with one daughter. For a while now I have been searching for a genuine loan lender who could help me with a loan as I no longer have a job, all I got were hoodlums who made me trust them and at the end they took my money without giving me any loan, my hope was lost, I got confused and frustrated, it became difficult for my family to feed with a good meal, I never wanted to have anything to do with any loan lending companies on the internet again. Not until I met a God-sent loan lender that changed my life and that of my family Through the help of a fellowship member “a lender with the fear of God in him Mr. Francis Alexander, he was the man that God sent to elevate my family from suffering. At first I thought it wasn’t going to be possible due to my previous experience until I received my loan worth $50,000.00 USD in less then 24hours. So my advice to anyone out there genuinely in need of a loan is to contact
They are all beautiful and so obviously love one another. Kiki's eyes are positively gorgeous!
Wow, super well trained. Shibas are normally very competitive and aggressive with each other so this is amazing!
aww this is cuteness overload :) btw., my daughter's favorite cat plushie names Kiki
Is the doberman coloured one a cross? Im used to Shibas looking like the tan coloured one
Black and Tan is not a cross. It’s my favourite coat colour in Shiba...😀
Load More Replies...Cute! The red shiba is really small. I wonder if he is a mameshiba?
Yeah but the effort and training that went into staging these is impressive. I normally prefer natural photography. But these "staged" shots showcase a real talent in training these guys.
