Bubba, the 6-year-old rescue pit bull,
has always been obsessed with cats. It started when his human mom
Rebecca Pizzello got him from a shelter in Phoenix, Arizona when he was
just 3 months old. Her roommate was caring for a litter of kittens and
Bubba just clicked with them. Finally, after 6 years of waiting,
Pizzello surprised her mellow pit with his very own kitten.
“I always knew he’d love having one of his own but I wanted to wait until we moved to NYC this year,” Pizzello told.
She got the tiny ginger kitten from a shelter, too. “The fact that
Bubba and Rue have identical coloring still blows my mind…I knew Bubba
would be filled with joy the second we walked in the door and boy was I
right.”
After only a few hours at her new home,
the kitten fell asleep on Bubba. “I think Rue thinks Bubba is her mom
and Bubba loves it,” Pizzello added. “He bathes her like a baby and
snuggles close to her to make her comfortable. They will definitely be a
fun duo to watch grow up together!”
