Sammy the cat cuddles his family's new adopted puppy to sleep. "I think my cat approves!" said Sophie Beth via reddit.

Sammy is a rescue cat who was given a second chance. "(He) is only a little over a year old. We found him when he was two weeks old and bottle fed him. Now he's transformed into a giant. The puppy is only 6 weeks old…," she added.

The tuxedo boy "was raised by humans and a dog," and has always had a strong connection with canines. He grooms the new adopted puppy and snuggles with her when she's asleep as if he's telling her "we are family now."
