And now for a heartwarming story of friendship between dogs and cats! A borough chief in Tainan City was horrified when he saw a dog apparently carrying a cat in his mouth on CCTV. But when he got onto the street, he quickly realized that the big-hearted dog was trying to help the cat, which had been injured. The cat was later taken to a treatment center. The dog’s owner says he was once a street dog, but after they fell in love with each other, they became family.
In this CCTV footage, a yellow dog runs by with a cat in his mouth. When the borough chief saw the image, he ran out to see what was happening immediately. The dog didn’t stop but ran straight for his owner at the end of the road. The owner picked up the cat and the borough chief put her in a box, noticing she was injured.

At first we thought the dog and the cat had been fighting. But they weren’t! He was holding the cat in his mouth in the perfect position, the cat’s head was over here. He just held the skin of her neck like he was trying to save her. So I called for the owner straight away, and said, “Hey, your dog has bitten a cat!” And the owner came over and brought the cat over.

I was quite shocked. In the past, he has brought back dead birds to the house.
The borough chief thought the dog had hurt the cat in a fight. But when he examined the CCTV closely, he realized that the dog seemed to be trying to save the cat by bringing her home.

The cat had a tear in her stomach. I thought it didn’t look like a bite mark, more like a cut. There were no other injuries. So clearly the dog was trying to save her. The neighbor said he picked her up just over there.
Mr. Cheng
Dog owner
It’s quite heart-warming, the friendship between the cat and the dog.
The owner of the dog explains that these two canines were both street dogs. But after playing with them frequently, he decided to adopt them. This particular doggo often brings home animals in his mouth, perhaps because he has such a big heart. When the owner got over his shock, he called the city government on 1999, and in less than an hour, an officer arrived to take the injured cat to be treated.
