I am not ashamed to say I'm crying... I love that the cat was also a black cat (who are the last to be adopted and first to be put down in shelters).

English. Translation When I watched it a few years ago, I thought the cat was cute and it was a sweet story, but when I watch it now, I think it's amazing how the cat's pupils dilate when it gets excited and how it bristles to make itself look bigger. I love it.

[@alicesrabbit7126]

So is the cat when it approaches the dog after the POS abuser kicks him out in the rain. The cat approaches carefully and gives a small lick to let the dog know it means no harm. My cat does this when I'm crying. She'll sneak up next to me and lick my arm. One time, I was crying in the dark, and she licked the tears off my cheek. Also, the dog's reaction when the cat lays down next to it, its tail thumps, responding to gentle touch, and when the dog hesitates to let the new human pet it...My heart just melts seeing him happy! This whole thing was made very well by someone who really knows both cats and dogs and *_loves them._* I love animals, too, this warms my heart.

I mean... it really is sad and this video showed so many different people that, its okay to not be as good as someone else because you are just as special as they are.

[@justanotheryoutubechannel3102]

Animals are more honest than people, and more forgiving. Anyone that loves either cats or dogs or both can relate to the very real body language we clearly understand replacing shallow words, or even worse, singing and dancing, with the most heartfelt and hard hitting slice of this is what happens daily in any big city even if you don't ever hear a peep about it. There simply is no finer animal movie and maybe never will be one this brutally honest and moving. It gets me every time and I'm supposed to have a LOGICAL personality type.

[@cinematicgoodness7325]

It frustrates me to no end that dogs are put in horrible situations like fighting to the death for the enjoyment of other bad people. It's criminal and should be outlawed everywhere. It's just so heartbreaking. this was a masterfully done short film.

[@dragonmilkshake4135]

It frustrates even more when people ridicule dogs for their viciousness. They don't care about how lovable and sweet the dog was before or how it was abuse relentlessly for it to become so aggressive. They just see a "violent monster" that they believe should be put down. These Sparkshorts always carry such meaningful messages.

[@thorondor1593]

I agree with that much, but nobody feels sympathy for the birds in cockfighting or the alligators that die very excruciating deaths to trappers. There are humane ways to treat pest gators and roosters. Just because God put animals in our dominion doesn't mean we can find enjoyment in their suffering. The word for that is "sadistic."

i love the small detail when the woman pets the dog, he slightly leans his head away as if expecting to be pushed away or batted, it on top of the initial reaction the woman has when first seeing the dog are what makes me feel sad about the honestly horrible truth that pitbulls are really misunderstood, and some people really go out of their way to make sure their status as "violent breed" stays, which is absolutely horrible. once she pets the dog, i always feel relieved, even on rewatches, because it goes to show that yes they are really just as gentle as other dogs are, and we shouldn't be treating them as anything different. this is all coming from a person who has been living with a pit-lab mix for nearly my whole life, and honestly he's still as sweet as he was when we got him as a pup. love your animals, no matter what people say about them. they hate because they don't get enough love that they deserve, and the best thing you can do as a pet owner is to show them that you still care about them.

People just don’t understand. My dad had a pit bull and it was around me when I was like 3. It passed away like 2 years ago and I was glad I was there to help people see that any dog can be friendly and loving, only if it’s with a good family that will give enough love and attention to it.

[@annienunyabiz6627]

My neighbor found a pit puppy on the side of the road and adopted him to us. I've had him since he was about 4 weeks old. My uncle-in-law told us to watch out for him, cause pits can turn at any moment and rip your throat out. It's been 13 years, my dog has never hurt me, my son, my cat (other than accidentally sitting on her cause he still doesn't understand how big he is,) and I've used him to educate kids in the neighborhood how to approach and read big dogs and even helped some of them overcome their fear of large dogs. When a feral decided to drop her kittens off on us, my dog babied them and let them try to nurse him. My cat frequently uses him as a bed. He even saved my life when a fire started outside my door while I was asleep, and he woke me up. Breeds aren't inherently bad. People make them bad.

this is the reason why I love Pixar. The fact that they can take something so simple as a kitten and a pit bull and turn it into the most touching and heartwarming stories you've ever seen. There's no script no dialogue but they don't need that they just want to brighten someone's day and that's exactly what they did. Thank you from the bottom of my heart Pixar for making the most beautiful and magical stories. No other film producer can make a film like you can. I hope you keep making the best stories out there so that one day me and my kids can experience this magic together Sincerely, W.H.A. Vlogs

The one and only time that the kitten actually hurt the dog was when it couldn't get away. It was trapped and terrified, seeing a threat in the huge animal with teeth nearly as big as the kitten's head. Not realising the dog's good intentions, it just tried to defend itself from a suspected threat. When it became clear that the dog meant no harm, the kitten felt bad and went to comfort it. There was no abuse from the kitten whatsoever.

I thought nothing of them and just left food out whenever I had some leftover from a bag from my own cat. I grew attached to them,even speaking to them in a baby voice(we’ve all done it). When I found out where they got their scars from after asking around if they were anyone’s cats because they seemed tame(they were one of my neighbor’s.) I felt so bad for them. Apparently my neighbor would abuse them when drunk or high,sometimes when he wasn’t. I decided to keep the cats,but as outside cats. This short just crushed my heart.
