I know! That really got me too, as well as the teeny tiny little legs shake after he got out of the water.

That' took me out 😅😅

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing this. I can’t stop smiling. Made my day. 😁🩷💚💜

That's his spot.

Please refrain from using the word "kitty" and lets use the required trans-species pronouns such as "doggy" as Merlin identifes as a dog.

I lost my old cat last year. I missed her like crazy 😢 Finally I adopted an old dog from a shelter whose previous owner was put into a nursing home . My ❤ is finally healing 😊

I adopted an 18 year old cat when my friend passed away. I was really worried about her learning to live in such a different environment. Especially cuz she was an only kitty. And I have many very friendly kitties that never have enough friends. She really settled in quickly. And excepted all the kitties quite nicely. She was 20 years old when her body and loneliness for her daddy took her to the Rainbow Bridge. She had a great life.

Much love to you and your furry friends

May y'all meet again one day ❤

Blessings to you! Two feral kittens showed up on the porch. We already have 7 rescue dogs, but what the heck. We have 9 mouths to feed now. Cats and dogs are the best! Save mammals!

yeah, they are like that chill guy, but even more naturally chill, if that makes sense lol

growing up on a farm, we had several sheep, a chicken, a cow and a duck over the years that co-opted living with and behaved like our dogs.

Love this video! Its so cute and heartwarming and the real Oliver and Company. It also makes me miss having a cat.

😊

Thats so cute.

I used to have an old Yorkie who would watch videos with me

My cat was mesmerized about this video. Strange because she doesn’t like videos with dogs in them. She was in the middle of falling asleep… Not anymore. This seems to be a keeper for her

A swimming cat is always a pleasure to see. I remember on The Beverly Hillbillies it was a special scene when Elly Mae's cat Rusty swam in the cement pond.☺️

His inner tiger they love water

He has his own channel!

​@@hayleymariemillsyou joking about that ?

Is the emulation behavior atypical? Or is this something that can be replicated.. honestly I can't think of a better mom than most dogs, for people and for a lot of different animals these days LOL.. obviously take that with all the reality addendums that are required.. but, still.. I kind of want to know LOL.

i didn't know that

@@hannypressley343neither does he/she what ever they identified as

@@basketballexpert4584it’s never that deep, just use „they“ like english says too.

@@basketballexpert4584 You're an 'it.'

Lmao

This is why is it said humans, like most animals, are fundamentally evil.

You are 100% spot on! This is a true example of the powerful and profound effect nurture has on the outcome of a life whether that life is human, elephant, or cat!

Perfectly said Annelle.

Yes, DNA can't do all the job. It just puts the basics and foundations, and let nurture do the rest

That’s a beautiful thing

Wonderful... my cat was raised by my Shih-tzu. That dog so loved her baby kitten. 😍

​@@pyeyoung8095 I used to go to a vet out in the country who had a great Dane that hung out with the clients. He told me she wanted to be pregnant so badly but for kittens. She sworn everyone of them tht came in tht door Belonged to her... it was sweet but sad.. ... I had so many cats tht carry stories. But one loved my dog so much and always tried to sleep on her back. My dog was so nervous you'd watch her slowly slide out from underneath him. And yet tht same cat as he grew up would run after any dog and keep going lk you see the ones who save kids from an attack. But a person sit on my couch and he would jump on their lap gentle approach their face, turn his head sideways and try to french kiss them.. yup... that's a long story... he sleep on my shoulder every night. I slept on my side. And my husband would say. That dang cat don't let me get near you. Yes, I miss him dearly

@@pyeyoung8095I disagree it’s like a beaver being raised by chickens or a wombat being raised by flying foxes.

🤓

It's a male cat, not a female cat. He's a little cat with a bunch of dogs.

Marlin for the minister of canine 2024✊🙌

😂😂😂😂😂❤

he's the alpha in the house😂

No cat wants to be an astronaut 😂

​@@klmartini906u sure? 😮

definitely mistaken identity... 😅 but i still love how his expression turns from curious young kitten to confident young male cat... 😁

@@hilman94 oh, he’s a boy! He’s very handsome.

And he IS!

​@@NelsonAnthony-ww6jhHey Nelson how's it going

Cute comment....👍😀

How cute😂❤

It's FAKE. Everything has been arranged👎🏻

@@user-id7ky7gi7r - you are right. I hate all the fake stuff. like this Israel/Gaza garbage. Everyone is a murderer pretending to be nice. I hate that.

@@NelsonAnthony-ww6jhThe weather was nice until you showed up.

Marlin is a fish, just his inner fish swimming lol perfect name for swimming cat. Need pic of marlin fish engraved on his tag

@@rt2255 Marlin is a great name!

@@janetjinkens9636 perfect name for the swimming 😺

Its offensive to Merlin to refer to him as a cat. Merlin now identifies as a dog and therefore needs to be adressed using the trans-species pronouns "dog/canine/puppy/doggy"

God bless you! 🙏

Bless you ❤

Bless you

take care sir. ❤

I'm sad it's been a tough one for you today. If it's ok, I send you a hug and a lot of love. I hope you know God's not forgotten you. I remember thinking I was being punished or abandoned. I don't have all the answers on the horrendous suffering we have to endure, but something my pastor told me that helped was that Jesus promised healing. Our healing will either happen here or in Heaven, but it will happen if we trust him. It made me less anxious and more hopeful. Maybe it will help you, too. But if not, I pray for peace in your entire being and for you to be able to embrace joy and hope wholeheartedly. ❤ We'll be ok

I would like to see your car after getting home with four wet sandy dogs and a cat!

Seems like Marlin is a very impressionable cat.

@@jpm5205 beautiful blessed little cat what a character, you gotta love the innocence of animals

my cat like water, ONLY if the water is warm😂

I like the name "ginger tabby" for them. It's more accurate than "red tabby".

I always say how different they are.

I don't know why, but ginger cats tend to be quite outgoing and adventurous. The ones that I was chosen by were the sweetest personalities who liked everyone. We used to joke that they would insist on pets from burglars.

Orange males r the very best cats 🖐️ They never fail to b dang amazing 😻😽

He could have more eccentric. His owners could have named him Hobbes.

Ohhhh mylanta!!😂 This is without a doubt the most adorable sight to see!

That is a true blue love from you and your dogs for that little kitten i commend you for being avery big hearted person... you are a true blue Hero of the whole wide world....... deb scherer

Ha! Me too! I wish I could have a pet. But I live under a bridge and it wouldn't be good for them

I hope things turn around soon for you both!

Place yourselves, both of you beautiful souls.HEbWill never let you down. Your boat cannot sink if you invite HIM in. My first hand experience. Sending Both of you love & the assurance of Prayers.❤❤❤❤

​​​​@@Madrespect 🙏❣️🌹🙏❣️🌹🙏❣️🌹🙏❣️🌹🙏 ❣️🌹

May your life gets better and you will have your own house in the future!!

PRICELESS

My Bully played fetch and tried to attack someone that was trying to break in to the camper. They ran away 🤣 He was pretty dog like. Lol

I think cats have a wide spectrum of personalities, but in my experience, boy cats raised securely since a kitten are usually more “dog like”/More likely to play fetch, succumb to the zoomies, and just not take themselves too seriously.

Actually cats pace. Same side legs same position. There are some videos in here. I had a car that trotted like a horse lol.

Somewhere in the vast expanse of this universe there is a marlin named Cat that eats mice and climbs trees..... Don't ask me how, I just report the news.....

hello beautiful 👋🏻 you've got a beautiful smile and I must say you look amazing I'm Travis and you're? hope to hear from you soon

After kurt😊

Were do you live

@dimpelzmyles: good observation !

Savor every moment with Fred. It's nice that at least we usually get more years with our kitties.

@@NelsonAnthony-ww6jh lovely!

The luckiest dog would be raised like this by cats

They don't always have the temperament for it. In fact, some dogs don't either. I've had experience with both.

This all depends on where you live. In the UK, it is normal to let your cat roam free. In places like Turkey and Japan, they have places where feral cats just roam free.

​@@toolbaggers If you want them to live long, healthy lives, you don't allow them to "roam free."

@@toolbaggers Sure. They live shorter lives, but most owners seem happy with that trade off. I wanted my cat (from long ago) to be indoor/outdoor but he brought home fleas. Lots of them. It became impossible to deflea the house or the yard, and they were biting us, not just the cat. So he became an indoor cat.

I feel the exact same way. I always find it so ironic how cats are always so curious and want drama and many are so bored in the house, and yet they mostly miss out on the exciting world out there due to their fear. We can now see by this, and many other stories on adventure cats out there, that depending on their temperament and how they are raised, many can lead lives full of fun and adventure!

There are some breeds of cats that actually like the water. Maine Coon, Manx, American Shorthair, and Bengal Cats to name a few. Even wild cats like Tigers like to swim on a hot day!!!

I had a male Siamese cat that would jump in my bath with me, and simply wade in the nice warm water. He was the coolest cat. 🩷

he's brainwashed you.

@@kevinsullivan8570 I know. I'm.pure mush. He's an acrobat now. He did three 360"s in a row and flipped over backwards - another 360- against the brick wall on my balcony . The wall ilike a scratching post for him - he ran up it about ten feet. So cute. A little chubby now ; it's winter. You should get one.

Yes

🤣🤣 Great comment!

It seems to be the equivalent of "Florida man"
