Oscar & Arthur

This is a beautiful yet creepy story about the unconditional love between a dog and a cat. Oscar the dog and Arthur the cat were best of friends. They were inseparable. When 17-year-old Arthur kicked the bucket Oscar didn't know what to do with himself. Arthur's owners buried him in their garden.

Oscar must have seen this, because in the dead of night he went out into the garden and dug Arthur up. He carried Arthur to the basket they shared and gently cleaned him up. The owners found Oscar curled up next to Arthur's dead body the next morning.

The owners have securely buried Arthur and got Oscar a new kitten playmate named Limpet. Nobody will replace Arthur. You hear that Limpet? NOBODY! You can purr the purr and show off your cuteness, but Oscar's heart will always be with Arthur.

Nothing like a story about a dog licking a dead cat to warm the cockles of your heart.
