Dogs may be man's best friend, but these two puppies were lucky there were also some friendly mama cats around to help them out.

Coincidentally, two nursing felines didn't mind taking in another mouth to feed – and the difference in species didn't seem to get in the way of their motherly instincts.

The pups will be nursed to full health and independence before being shipped up to Minnesota for adoption.
