That is adorable!
Furball puppy looks like a living Q-Tip for momma kitty!
And it's using the baby kitties as fur cushions! Poor babies!
Thanks for the smile, TGM.

LOL! What's with puppies and ears?

They stick out I guess. My cats won't leave the dog's tail alone but neither of them have a tails so it figures it is jealousy mostly.

We had the exact opposite happen. Our Springer Spaniel adopted a kitten. When we were living in a two flat about 14 years ago the downstairs neighbors brought home a kitten. It kept hiding under the dresser meowing, so they brought it up to us and asked if we could take it.
I didn't think it would work, but it did! As soon as it started meowing, the Springer Spaniel went and got it, put it in her mouth, and brought the kitten back to her dog bed and snuggled it all night. After about a week the kitten was adjusted and happy.
They even developed a game. The kitten would wait on top of the table or counter top until the Springer Spaniel came by, then jump on her and run off. The Springer would follow until the kitten jumped back up on the table or counter top. Then the Springer would sit there looking at the kitten while it nonchalantly licked her paws. As soon as the Springer walked away, the game would repeat.
We had so much fun watching them!

LOL, Joe! I love your manx!

Maybe the puppies think the cats' ears are teats.

I had a black lab for 17 years that brought home a kitten one knight when I let her out in the yard. Two week later this kitten gave birth to 6 kittens, 5 solid white and one black, she was a gray tabby. Both the lab and the mama cat are gone now both lived 17 years and we kept two of the kittens, 1 of the white ones and the black one. The black one died about a year ago but the white one is still with us, she is 16 this year.
