Meet Jack Sparrow, the feisty Dalmatian who loves his horse family; Nevada, a 9-year-old Appaloosa stallion and Napoleon, a 5-year-old Shetland pony.
In an interview with Just Something, Greetje Hakvoort, founder of the Human & Horse Hotel had this to say about their unique and adorable relationship, "When Jack Sparrow saw Napoleon for the first time as a puppy, he started to jump towards him, because he thought Napoleon was his family, and since then he always wanted to be around him. Nevada and Jack are both calm, they like to be around each other, and love to do tricks for me together, while Napoleon is really funny and definitely lives up to his name, having a strong temperament and acting like a little king".

You can follow their story on Instagram. Check out the adorable pictures below:

Welcome to Chicago's Catcade! The Catcade, according to their Instagram is, "45% cat cafe. 45% cat rescue. 5% arcade. 3% cat hair. 2% black t-shirts. 100% non-profit = 200% the best hour in Chicago. Cats > math." And 100% pawesome. The Catcade is the coolest arcade around because it is an "arcade-themed" cat rescue, and lounge. Creators of the Catcade, Christopher Gutierrez and Shelly Casey, orchestrated an environment where the cats can roam-free and interact with humans, instead of being locked up in cages. We simulate a home environment where instead of being in cages, the cats get to interact with friendly humans in a free-roam living room atmosphere. 

There's an amazing subreddit where people share their cat-loaves, and we're obsessed... and hungry for all these loaves. The beauty of cat loaves is that there is no direct recipe you must stick to, all loaves are beautiful.

Have you ever really looked closely at your cat's paws?  If so, you'll discover that they truly are quite amazing. Those adorable little "fur-feet" are used to communicate, check out the environment, temperature, hunt, and groom.  Paws help kitty regulate her body temperature and are the all important shock absorbers when landing. But cat paws are mostly...the cutest thing ever and these posts are here to prove it.
