I have five cats, all of whom get on well together, BUT my fluffy ginger girl Foxy has developed a really strong bond with my little Chihuahua cross dog Holly. They are always together ... Foxy washes Holly all the time - especially those hard to reach places (top of her head being favourite). I'm not sure the bond is so strong from Holly's viewpoint, but she tolerates Foxy's attentions well
Foxy took to Holly when I first got her as a tiny puppy, and she's always been maternal towards kittens too.
Is it usual for cats to develop these bonds with other species, especially when there are other cats around?
