Almost everybody loves cats — even our sea-dwelling mammal friends! Watch Arthur, the cat in the video above, give lots of nuzzles, nose boops, and head butts of affection to his dolphin pals.
This video is from all the way back in 1997 when Arthur befriended Shiloh and Thunder, two curious dolphins at a marine animal park in Florida. Arthur and his pals show us that friends come in all shapes, sizes, and species! We humans could take a lesson from these buddies!
