This poor puppy was being shunned by other dogs, but instead found a new feline friend.

Ellie Carey, a 25-year-old ambulance nurse from Coffs Harbor, New South Wales, Australia, noticed that her puppy, Yuki, is being avoided by her parents’ dog.

When Ellie took Yuki to her parents’ house, the dogs ran away and Yuki was left out.

Fortunately, Ellie’s family has a rescue cat named Clarence who has little interest in puppies.
