Dexter the kitty was named after a rescue Shih Tzu dog for the remarkable recovery he had made in hopes that the adorable tuxedo would make the same incredible recovery after being rescued from an unfortunate fate.

When Dexter the kitty returned to the PetLuv Clinic from his foster home, he met Dexter the dog. The two hit it up as if they had known each other for life.
