When cats and dogs get together they tend to fight, well, like cats and dogs. A dog’s natural exuberance just doesn’t gel with a cat’s cool sophistication. But do these natural enemies really hate each other?

This video suggests a different story. When your back is turned, perhaps these furry creatures are actually the best of friends.

It all starts with a massage, as shown here. With all that bounding around, the dog’s obviously going to have a few knots in his back. And who better to ease his aching muscles than the cat?

This scene is very sweet, but you know it won’t last. These guys have a reputation to uphold after all.
