If you have seen The Lion King, then there is a possibility that you remember the unlikely friendship that formed between a meerkat and a warthog. There is now a similar real-life friendship which is as unusual as the fictional one. What is even more endearing is those animals, a dog and a pig, are named Timon and Pumbaa too.
Instagram page We Rate Dogs shared their story on along with two very adorable pictures. The images show the duo spending some quality time together. Alongside, they also posted that these friends are going to the same forever home.
“This is Timon and Pumbaa. They became best friends after being rescued by the Arizona Humane Society. Now the unlikely duo get to hang out together forever as permanent residents of the @betterpiggies rescue with other pot-bellied pups like Pumbaa. 13/10 for both,” the page wrote.
