Introducing the adorable duo of Baloo and Bagheera: a rescued bear and cat who have formed an unexpected bond!
A delightful companionship between a youthful bear and an adorable kitten has blossomed, bringing to mind memories of the beloved duo Baloo and Bagheera from The Jungle Book.
At the rescue center of Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand (WFFT) in southern Thailand, the adorable cub Ka Wao and the cat named George reside together. Ka Wao is particularly fond of George and enjoys spending time with him in their shared enclosure along with her mother Gallamair. According to Tom Taylor, the assistant director of the rescue center, Ka Wao is mischievous and playful.
At the animal center, there are a bunch of cats living with the sun bears who happen to adore them. Gallamair and Kaka, Ka Wao’s parents, have been residing there for six years now. Even though breeding is not allowed in captivity, Kaka was vasectomized to prevent any mishaps. Unfortunately, the surgery did not work, and the staff at the center were surprised when Ka Wao was born.
Tom mentioned that George and Gallamair were already friends before, and now all three of them enjoy playing together. He also stated that having a friend like Gallamair is beneficial for Ka Wao since she doesn’t have siblings to play with.
The Wildlife Friends Foundation Thailand, also known as WFFT, is a non-profit organization that operates throughout the country with a mission to save wild animals kept in captivity or domesticated. Among the animals under their care are numerous sun bears, abandoned by owners who came to the realization that they are not fit to be kept as pets.
