A study in relationships

This is a video of a homeless man in Santa Barbara and his pets. They work State Street every week for donations. The animals are pretty well fed and are mellow. They are a family. The man who owns them rigged up a harness 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 dog, will stand all day and let you talk to him and admire him for a few chin scratches. The Mayor of Santa Barbara filmed this clip and sent it out as a holiday card.

A great video.....a MUST watch! Click on the link below

We could all learn a lesson or two from that man and his animals....

Why CAN'T we all just get along?

oh my gosh that is the sweetest thing I've ever seen. I love how the cat seems to lovingly clean the rat. So adorable. Love it!

Aw, that's great!

I'd be entertained for hours by that bunch, and may be entertained by hours just from the video of the bunch. ;)
