It’s only Rule #4, Baby—don’t fight it

by Meg on August 4, 2006

Look Baby—there is nothing wrong with Rule #4—[cat squeezes pup tighter] It’s perfectly normal for two different species to cuddle. Have some more Courvoisier, Baby. Chill.

This freaky moment brot to you by Ike the Pup, Gizmo the cat, and Elisha…

::chi:: ^_^ that’s classic!

2 Dazie 08.04.06 at 9:02 pm

I can totally hear Samuel L. Jackson saying that…

3 Theo 08.04.06 at 9:04 pm

You *know* that wah-wah’s going to have a few mouthfuls missing by morning.

4 A thinker 08.04.06 at 9:04 pm

Pup: “Hmm, maybe if I look away and squeeze my eyes *re-e-a-a-lly* tight, she’ll go away.”

5 greenighs 08.04.06 at 9:05 pm

oooh no …. a pussie holding tight to a weiner??? W00t!

6 Lauri 08.04.06 at 9:09 pm

Awwww, more interspecies cuddling is called for!

Everyone needs to just get along!

7 Theo 08.04.06 at 9:11 pm

Yeesh, Greenighs… OK yeah, that’s just about where my humor sophistication level is, right now… sadly, though, this is not a dachshund. More like chalupahund.

8 Lauri 08.04.06 at 9:14 pm

Uh oh, that makes it a pussie holding tight to a taco.

9 ElfOwl 08.04.06 at 9:19 pm

. . . I . . . I . . . Im not sure I want to say anything about this . . .

Wuz GOING to say that the cat looks very protective of the poor little sleepy vulnerable not-a-dog.

10 Apophis16 08.04.06 at 9:20 pm

My poor affectionate kitty is only big enough to hug my dog’s head. ): not that he doesn’t try.

11 AuntieMame 08.04.06 at 9:30 pm

Eww. For a minute I thought the kitty was wearing some weird rubber nose prosthetic. Then I realized it was just the pup’s ear.

Maybe the poor pup is choking at the kitty is performing the abdominal thrust on him! Poor puppy…

12 Robin 08.04.06 at 9:33 pm

Kittie looks like he is about to do something…to the pup.

13 Rafael 08.04.06 at 9:33 pm

Cat:Hey I don’t comment on the guys you bring in here. Mine is cuter than that Mike guy that was here last night.

Owner:Why you little bi….

14 Jane 08.04.06 at 9:36 pm

So cuuute! Love is blind.

BTW, if you want to see a little mini-deer that thinks it’s a dog, look at bobharris.com today. More cute!

15 Teresa 08.04.06 at 9:44 pm

A little Barry White, anyone?

16 mariser 08.04.06 at 9:45 pm

manohman this picture has got its freak ON!

and if *that thing* in front of Gizmo cat’s nose is the back of a chi’s ear, I don’t want to see one ever again .

17 mariser 08.04.06 at 9:48 pm

[after reading the comments]
so, if the chi in this picture was dyed like:

http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2006/07/pink_is_the_new.html

the picture would be
“pussy holding a pink taco”
?

/fainting

18 Fish Eye no Miko 08.04.06 at 9:50 pm

Cat: “Do you mind? We’re trying to have some ‘alone time’ here…”
Dog: (sleepily) “Did you say something, dear… ? ZZzzzzzzz…”

19 Lauri 08.04.06 at 10:04 pm

LOL….. ummmm….yeah…..

20 Aubrey 08.04.06 at 10:14 pm

“Good evening and welcome to BLACKMAIL!

And now: a collar, an ASPCA registration file, and a recently discovered
photograph which could add up to reduction of petting priveledges, premature walkies retirement, and possible disowning proceedings for one guilty pair, last seen on CuteOverload. So that’s 3,000 pounds, of catnip and Alpo, please I. and G.,… thank you…
to stop us from revealing:
Your names,
The name of the three other animals involved,
The shelter to which they belonged,
and The Petco where you bought the equipment!”

Excellent Python ref, Aubrey!

22 wolf 08.04.06 at 10:26 pm

The Ear™ is blocking our view, but I bet there’s a cat-tongue at work back there.

24 belle 08.04.06 at 11:15 pm

Wow, I hope my weekend is as exciting as this photo!

25 fate 08.04.06 at 11:34 pm

THE DOGS EAR LOOKS LIKE THE CATS NOSE IN THAT PISTUR! lol *sry its the capital letters*

26 Lauri 08.04.06 at 11:53 pm

Wow, I just realized what that cat looks like it is saying!!!

Keep your hands in plain sight, back away, put down your weapon, or the wah-wah gets it!!!

27 Lauri 08.04.06 at 11:54 pm

Death by Heimlich!!!

28 kittikin 08.05.06 at 12:08 am

Oh! Can you FEEL the love, brothers and sisters!!

(More likely: That kitty’s going to pummel that pup with her ferocious kitty paws like he was a plush toy …)

29 Sarcasta 08.05.06 at 12:44 am

Don’t you love how cat’s can claim anything they want?

“He’s MINE… back away from the pup.”

Gotta love the double paw action. Not a casual drape, but a clutch.

30 Mississippi 08.05.06 at 12:46 am

That dog is so clearly, desperately thinking of England…..

31 Carrie 08.05.06 at 12:49 am

You know that cat is thinking, “I wonder what will happen if I chomped on her ear….”

32 Aubrey 08.05.06 at 1:03 am

“You move the head; I’ll do the funny voices.”

33 Fish Eye no Miko 08.05.06 at 1:17 am

Mississippi said, “That dog is so clearly, desperately thinking of England…..”

BWAHAHAHAH!!!

34 DH 08.05.06 at 1:28 am

It is …..

……….. A HERRING!

35 Connie 08.05.06 at 2:19 am

And see, to me it looks like the cat is thinking “a little hot sauce, and my dog ear lunch would be *perfect*!”

36 Dara 08.05.06 at 3:12 am

JANE? Is that you? Bobharris.com has the best pudu pix/blogging evah!

37 Li 08.05.06 at 3:19 am

If loving you is wroooong, I don’t wanna be right.

39 ceebs 08.05.06 at 3:29 am

I guess I’m in the minority here, thinking that kittyboo is giving puppers a big hug & is about to shnorgle his ear?

40 brownamazon 08.05.06 at 3:50 am

Bow-chicka-bow-bow… the saddest thing is, they’re probably both neutered.

41 CJL 08.05.06 at 4:41 am

Bonus points for the Ladies’ Man reference. Leon Phelps is proud of you, baby.

42 HonorH 08.05.06 at 5:57 am

Obviously, that cat is debauching that poor pup. I consider this to be pornography of the WORST KIND–inter-species snorgling–and I will promptly report you all to Jerry Falwell! Hmpf!

43 Subhangi 08.05.06 at 6:08 am

Now that’s what I call Fatal Attraction…

[wonders how long it would be before it gets to http://mfrost.typepad.com/cute_overload/2005/12/omg_is_that_you.html ]

Just *what* is it with daschunds and cats *always* getting it on?

44 makiono 08.05.06 at 7:04 am

*cough cough* chihuahua *cough cough*

45 Lauri 08.05.06 at 10:35 am

ROFL, Subhangi….great link! I hadn’t seen that one before.

Puppeh luuuuv!

46 jaypo 08.05.06 at 11:45 am

Beautiful orange kitty eyes. Kitty pwns puppy. Puppy is happy about it.

47 jaypo 08.05.06 at 11:53 am

“I guess I’m in the minority here, thinking that kittyboo is giving puppers a big hug & is about to shnorgle his ear?”

I’m withya there, ceebs! Maybe with a little back paw action on the hindquarters…

48 O 08.05.06 at 12:14 pm

And I thought my himalayan kitteh and bernese mountain dog spooning together were hillarious. Dewd, this is so much better.

49 Ruth 08.05.06 at 1:23 pm

Check out page 48 of the the September 06 UK edition of Marie Claire magazine. :)

I’d send you them, but my scanner isn’t working. :(

50 Ruth 08.05.06 at 1:26 pm

By the way, this site is quite nice. And I apologise for my bad use of grammar (above).

Goodbye :D

51 Hannah 08.05.06 at 5:13 pm

I swear that cat is trying to kill the dog…

52 C 08.05.06 at 6:40 pm

Don’t get me wrong…I’m all for interracial dating/marriage/whatever… but this just seems… well… wrong.

53 TC 08.05.06 at 9:12 pm

Gizmo the cat is very nearly the spitting image of my Sheaffer. His pic is on my blog, if ya wanna check it out. Anyway, very cute pic!

~TC

54 jade 08.05.06 at 10:36 pm

this looks like interspecies spooning!

55 leena 08.05.06 at 11:07 pm

it looks like they r about to DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
u go dogg woot! woot!

56 CP 08.06.06 at 1:23 am

I can’t believe I’m the first one to make this reference — and after more than a day! Here goes…

Venkman: This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.

Mayor: What do you mean, “biblical”?

Stantz: What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath-of-God type stuff.

Venkman: Exactly.

Stantz: Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies. Rivers and seas boiling.

Spengler: Forty years of darkness. Earthquakes, volcanoes…

Zeddemore: The dead rising from the grave.

Venkman: Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together – mass hysteria.

57 Theo 08.06.06 at 3:41 am

LOL

This isn’t actually relevant but honestly I don’t care:
Mayor: Is this true?
Venkman: Yes, it’s true. This man has no dick.

58 lauowolf 08.06.06 at 4:34 pm

Just love it when a pet has a pet

59 Action 08.06.06 at 8:25 pm

My cat cuddles my other cat just like this before he bites her! (All in play, of course.)

If I were this dog, I’d watch out. There’s something in that cat’s eyes…. *chomp*!

60 Zoltan 08.07.06 at 1:16 am

I think the dog is an Australian Working Kelpie. A herding dog. Im not sure though.

61 Daniel 08.08.06 at 8:29 pm

That’s not hugging, that’s wrassling! It looks to me like that cat wants to “play rabbit” with that tiny little dog — which is to say, to grip it in her front paws and pummel it with her hind feet, much as she might a rabbit.

62 mk 08.09.06 at 4:00 pm

What kind of dog is that?!

63 alvin 08.10.06 at 1:46 pm

is the cat really just hugging the dog or is the cat trying to choke the dog to death in it’s sleep?
(the “psycho” theme playing in the background)

65 Tabitha 11.17.06 at 6:33 am
