Avid hikers: In 2014, Cynthia Bennett and her boyfriend chose Henry, an adorable dog, as their new family pet. Bennett had planned on adopting a golden retriever mix at first, but then she saw Henry at the adoption event and changed her mind. Even though he was only 14 weeks old, he was already considerably more significant than the other puppies of the same age. As soon as she entered Henry’s enclosure, he immediately climbed onto her lap, rolled over onto his back, and draped his head over her arm. That was the moment when she realized he was the one for her.
According to what Bennett shared with The Dodo, “I guess we had him for only three days when we took him on our first hike.” “He looked around until he found the rock that was the steepest and the highest, and then he ran up to the top of it to look over the edge.” As a result, they started referring to him as their “little mountain goat.”
The couple decided a few months ago that they would like to expand their household to include another pet. Bennett had a strong desire to adopt a stray kitten. After looking for one in shelters for over five months, they eventually came across a Siamese-mixed kitty named Baloo. They introduced their dog, Baloo, to the adorable cat, Henry, and Baloo immediately fell in love with Henry. All Baloo wanted to play with Henry and cuddle up with him. Since then, Henry and Baloo have become so close that they are hardly ever apart.
It didn’t take long before the best of friends began planning their first vacations together. “I get a lot of questions about how we got him acclimated to it and how it is to travel with both a cat and a dog. I am asked how we got him used to it and how it is to travel with both. However, he genuinely enjoys doing it. Bennett stated that he had a strong desire to go outside. “Baloo will start yelling at the door if I even touch Henry’s leash,” I said. “Henry is compassionate.”
