Everyone knows that cats and dogs just don't get along - at least in most cases. So you might be surprised to see that this cat not only has a close dog friend, but she introduced her old pal to her new kittens!

If you're having one of those rough days, the clip below posted to YouTube recently might just help turn things around. In fact, if you can't watch it without smiling, you officially have no soul!

According to the YouTube poster, the stray mama cat featured in the video has spent many years on the streets of Russia with a dog that became her very best friend.

And, as moms are always proud of their kids, they can't wait to show them off to their friends, right?

Well, when this mother cat's kittens got old enough, she did just that. What made it extraordinary was that her buddy is a dog.

At first, it's a bit nerve-wracking as the dog bares its teeth. But after mom tells her four-legged pal what's up with a quick wack of the paw, the dog quickly understands and settles down.

Mama cat even trusts her dog friend enough to watch her kittens for a few minutes while she takes a short cat nap!

It's incredible just how gentle the canine is with the furry little critters as he lets them bat at his paws.

After a while, mama cat begins to feel left out of the fun and decides to join in on the play fighting, even rough housing a bit with her old friend.

The video offers an amazingly endearing example of how we can all put our differences aside and get along, despite the cliches of animosity, don't you think?
