Rupert, a rescue Fennec Fox, is so happy to be reunited with his best friend William the cat.

The desert fox was hand-reared at the International Primate Rescue in Pretoria, South Africa where he bonded with William the cat.

"Rupert came to us at just 4 weeks old and is now fully introduced to Roxy our older female Fennec Fox. This video shows him being reunited with his best friend William one of our cats. They became good friends when we were hand rearing Rupert and it's wonderful to see how excited Rupert is at seeing his friend again."
