As if this isn’t automatically adorable, the cat makes a move to rest its head on top of one of the dogs’ heads, completely sealing the deal.

He nuzzles his head right into the dog’s cheek, staking his claim in the furry slumber-party for some serious cuteness overload.

The tender video has thrilled the hearts of many viewers, all chiming in with approval and love for the furry connection.

One viewer admitted:

“Omg.. The cuteness is real over here.. Just look at that adorable little snuggle puddle.. Omg I’d be all up in it. Soooo freaking cute!!! I can’t take it lol”

Another confided:

“They don’t really need a bigger bed. When dogs snuggle together in a tight space, it makes them feel secure. Both of my dogs do it all the time and they love each other. This is so cute.”

Cute is an understatement.

Golden Retrievers are notorious for befriending other species of animals, including cats.

They are one of the top ten sought after breeds in the United States, specifically for their good-natured behavior. Dogtime reveals:

“A sweet, calm nature is the hallmark of the breed. The Golden was bred to work with people, and is eager to please his owner. Though hard-wired with a good disposition, like all dogs the Golden must be well-raised and well-trained to make the most of his heritage.”

That sweet calm nature does not disappoint! With their sweet disposition, they’re able to cast out everything we thought we knew about the age-old rivalry between cats and dogs.

And after watching this video, it’s clear to see that they are all about love and affection.
