Newborn puppy that lost its mom finds unusual foster family

After this cute pup named Bobby sadly lost its mother to a car accident, the Michigan Humane Society was able to pair up the dog with a new family — of cats.

Bobby was just two days old when its mother was fatally struck by a vehicle, so it was important that the puppy found a new family as quickly as possible.

The society just so happened to have a mother cat that was still nursing, so they decided to give it a shot and see if the cat would foster the puppy. 

Much to their surprise, the plan worked, and the puppy is now growing up around a litter of kittens at its foster home until it's old enough for adoption. 

Not only does the mother cat provide Bobby with milk, but the kittens provide good socialization for the puppy.

Now, we're not sure if Bobby knows it's not like its other friends, but we're pretty sure it'll find out eventually.
