This is a video of a homeless guy in Santa Barbara and his pets. You can see these guys every week working State Street for donations. The animals as you can see are pretty well fed and mellow. They are a family.

The man rigged a harness up for his cat so she wouldn't have to walk so much (like the dog and himself). At some juncture the rat came along and as no one wanted to eat anyone else, the rat started riding with the cat and often on the cat!

The Mayor of Santa Barbara filmed this clip and sent it out as a Christmas card.



Have to see it to believe it

ETA: it doesn;t seem to be a fix-up, either...

The cat and dog love each other, you can tell.

Not too certain about the rat.

The cat may just be waiting for the cameras to stop rolling . . .

;)

Cute clip - thanks!
 
I wonder what the dog thinks about having to do all the work :D Does he even know that the cat picked up a hitchhiker?

That's what my husband thinks. He says, "The dog and cat are buddies, but it looks like the cat is just carrying around a snack for later." ;)
