I have a 23-pound cat (boy) who would totally do this. He makes friends with fish, lizards, frogs, any animal he meets.

I am always shocked when I see these itty bitty dogs. "If Yukon Cornelius were a mean kitty he could eat you for a midmorning snack!"

@JinxyMcDeath: Which is cool by me, although, as a friend maintains, it's a little sexist that women can have men's names and be considered cool, whereas men with women's/unisex names and usually mocked or pitied. But what can you do?

When this happens, can pups live on surrogate mother cat's milk, and vice versa? Are the two animals closely related enough that the pup will do well?

@EmpressZombie: Not newborn humans (and infants under one year). It's hard to digest and lacks sufficient iron.

@Ms. Audrey Horne: actually newborn humans can survive. I was given cow's milk from the get go & lived to tell. It's definitely not recommended now, but it was to my mom, 30 yrs ago.

Now I can't stand milk, especially the smell of it.

I just imagined our kitteh in this situation, and she would probably eat that pup.

We have a love/hate relationship. I love her, she hates my guts. It's so sad.

All I want to do is squish her because she's so cute. But she's an equal opportunity discriminator. She hates everyone except my husband.

I guess the glazed look of exhaustion that new moms have tends to be across the board.

aw, puppy!

and aw, poor momma.

Srsly guys, can we stop breeding pets that can't even give birth on their own safely? Sorry to be a downer on a cute thread.

@Norton:
YES YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES!

I feel so sorry for animals that pretty much have to birth via c-section by default.

@Norton: I agree. I have two chihuahuas (a boy and a girl) and people always ask us why we never bred them (they're both fixed, obviously). It's all I can do to keep from screaming about lack of proper breeding, "sizing" down dogs to the point that they can't give birth unassisted, and the fact that irresponsible breeding is the reason one of my two was days away from being put to sleep at the pound and the other had been in three homes, then the pound-- too many aww!cutepuppies!!! and not enough homes. Grr. My blood pressure.

in a world filled with poverty, war and strife we always have kittens and puppies to make us feel warm and good inside.

@xuatastic: Until the enemy decides to use a cat attack to defeat us. We'll think they're our friends, but no doubt they'll have missile packs and grenades. Cats are shameless in their strange loyalties, and also evil. This is why I prefer them as pets.

My old cat had a heart-shaped mark on her left paw. She was a real darling, too. I miss that kitty...

It would be really cool if the pup’s actual heart was just below the heart shape on its fur. The last time I went for an echocardiogram the technician gave up after 15 minutes, having failed to locate my heart. She had to call in a more senior member of staff to find it. Seems it was not located in the usual place. Maybe I should get a t-shirt with a heart printed above it to save time if I have to have another ecg.

I read that title literally, picturing a beating heart on the outside of some poor dog. That would be less cute, I think.

@LaComtesse: Oh, true. I'm always enamored with dogs that are missing a leg or something, but I don't think a puppy with a heart on the outside would be an alive puppy, right?

As long as I have ears on my head, I won't want to be anywhere near a Chihuahua, even one with a heart on its side.
