“Based on the cat's reaction, the cat also thinks it is a stuffed animal,” joked a Reddit user. “That is one patient kittie! It’s got a face like ‘Yup, you see what I put up with daily?’,” added another. “Cat: The things I put up with for a warm spot,” joined a third.

“I think they love each other! The Bernese Mountain Dog is in heaven and the cat would be out of there if s/he were unhappy. Adorable,” suggested a fourth. “These two clearly grew up together. This is the cuddle/clean session that the cat has been subjected to since he could fit in a shoe. I'll bet that the cat gets in that spot willingly,” wrote a fifth.
