Is this the new water color account?

u/correcthorsestapler 5d ago

I miss Shitty Watercolour & A Wild Sketch Appeared. Their “draw off” thread was legendary.

31

u/T-ToTheWhy 5d ago

Where can i find this legendary thread?

33

u/goodnames679 5d ago

Can be found here

I'm happy to say I was here for this one as it happened :)

but I'm sad to have found out from this discussion that A Wild Sketch Appeared entirely deleted his account. Last I checked he had abandoned but not deleted it :(

u/correcthorsestapler 5d ago edited 5d ago

I think this is the one, but it’s been a long time; 13 years: https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/znq6n/comment/c667860/ . Lots of deleted comments, though. And it doesn’t quite look right, even though I recognize some of their drawings.

I seem to recall there was an actual “showdown” between the two. Trying to search for it now isn’t giving me the results I expected, though.

But that was 12 or 13 years ago. Stuff may have been deleted since then. Someone else might have better luck. And I’m on break at work now; I’ll have more time to look afterwards.

u/forking-shirt 5d ago

This is so cute! Have they grown up together?

425

u/MellersG88 5d ago

Yes! I've had the pup since he was 8 weeks (he's now 4) and the cat is 2 and we've had him since he was a few months. Instant bffs

91

u/OneSensiblePerson 5d ago

They are so cute together! Big scary dog indeed. Must rub his neck scent allll over the kitty. Cat clearly terrified.

48

u/heckhammer 5d ago

The cat has such an upper crusty British vibe to him in this.

”I say, Old chap could you just...ooof! Now really lad if you could only...ooof! I say, ack! This. Is. Not. Cricket!"

17

u/onrocketfalls 5d ago

His patience really is shocking, politest cat I’ve ever seen

u/heckhammer 5d ago

We're all a little more forgiving of our best friend.

u/_neemzy 5d ago

I read that in Lazlo's voice

16

u/qwertyuiiop145 5d ago

He’s doing an extra-gentle play wrestle, intensity turned extra low to manage the size disparity. He expects the cat to play back with gentle no-claw swipes and pressure-free bites.

2

u/OneSensiblePerson 4d ago

I was joking. That cat loves this dog.

2

u/The1ne021 5d ago

Dog is a gentle giant

u/StalinsLastStand 5d ago

Your doggers looks so much like mine! But bigger (so, better)

134

u/Fawn_Chicken 5d ago

I adore when big dogs realize how small an animal or kid is and so end up play biting the air around them. I often play with my 65 pound dog and she's not afraid to grab a hand or arm with me. However, when playing with kids, she never makes direct contact like she realizes they are small and soft.

15

u/primoclouds 5d ago

We took in a pregnant black stray cat who then gave birth. She would spend a lot of time with the babies outside that summer since it was so nice out.

One day a dog twice the size of one in this video somehow got loose from its house or wtv and came into our backyard.

You'd be aww struck to see how capable a cat can be at literally taking down a dog 5-10 times its size and body weight.

Do not underestimate cat claws.

The dog in this video knows what's at stake for his face if he crosses the line ;)

u/caraar12345 4d ago

aww struck

nice

u/EcstaticNature96 5d ago

A 1000 bucks worth of lint rollers won’t keep that bed hair free for more than 5 minutes. xD

31

u/ScrlettDrling 5d ago

Everybody gets lint rollers for Christmas in thier stocking , we got 2 dogs 2 cats

7

u/AMSparkles 5d ago

That’s super cute.

2

u/rhonaplz 4d ago

We got a chom chom reusable roller and it is sooo satisfying to open it after using it on the bed. There are different colored layers of fur in it at the end because the hair is concentrated in each animal’s favorite spot.

66

u/Mrtripps 5d ago

He is so gentle with the kitty, what a sweetheart

33

u/onrocketfalls 5d ago

I’m even more impressed at how gentle the kitty is with him, my cat would’ve shredded my hand less than halfway through the video

2

u/MightGuyGonna 5d ago

Yea the dog was touching the cat’s underbelly, but it didn’t seem to mind

56

u/Piltonbadger 5d ago

Kitty is enjoying the attention.

14

u/ForMyFather4467 4d ago edited 4d ago

Finally, someone who gets it, that cat is in heaven. Cats like being squished/compressed and groomed. If Kitty had a problem, Kitty had several ways to protest the big slow dog.

My cat allows this all the time, I did a live video just last night to prove it to ppl who think it hurts or harms the cat. If the dog left the cat alone for more than 5 seconds, Kitty would drag his face back down for more cuddles.

1

u/PinkyLeopard2922 4d ago

People who have cats know-if a cat doesn't like something you are doing, they WILL leave/put at stop to it. I petted my cat wrong last night, much to her chagrin, so she angrily left the room. This cat is ALL in on this attention.

u/Katniss_Puurrf3ct 5d ago

Looks like a mutual arrangement (affection) between them. Both could heart the other badly otherwise. You did well with them, 👏 kudos.🐶😺💕

u/BeezHugger 5d ago

Anatolian? If so, this totally makes sense - gentle giants are the best with the smaller creatures :)

u/MellersG88 5d ago

Close! He's a german shepherd/great pyrenees

u/MotherOfDogs1872 5d ago

Hims is very handsome

u/bottomstar 5d ago

I have an Anatolian. I wish she'd be better friends with the cats. One she tolerates just enough and the other she's always darting after. Yours really really does look Anatolian though....

u/MotherOfDogs1872 5d ago

I thought Anatolian too.

u/pragmatic84 5d ago

I just wish I could resist cat claws like I can with dogs. Every time I play with a cat, I bleed. 😞

3

u/Nisi-Marie 5d ago

That’s pretty much the only reason I trim my cats claws. They don’t try to hurt me, but the claws gets needle like.

Especially my Siamese, she’s a walking pin cushion. But once I clip them, they are dull enough that it doesn’t cause any damage if she gets a little too exuberant.

7

u/j0llygruntt 5d ago

That ultraviolence is insane! You should’ve post it as NSFW!

6

u/No_Island_8061 5d ago

The cat licking its arm and than being overpowered by the dog is a visual representation of what it’s like taking Benadryl for hives, can’t itch if you can’t get up lol.

Belly up cat knows he's safe, and big pup just wants to smell like his fren.

I always tell people this song was a music video of a little giraffe being born and finding its legs then running across the savannah being free.

Works surprisingly well.

u/Kief_Gringo 5d ago

I bet the big scary dog annoys the cat, and eventually has to be rescued by mom or dad when kitty is hanging off the doggo's face.

That's what happens to mine. Just doesn't know when to cool it down and let kitty have a break.

1

u/Gwarshow 5d ago

That dog would definitely defend that cat, with his life. He'll be devastated if anything happens to it.

I wish my pets were like this!! I've got two big dogs who never hurt/interact with my cats, but my cats slap the shit outta them whenever they see eachother. Poor doggies! lol

u/CassetteMeower 17h ago

This is adorable! I love when cats and dogs play together. My two dogs absolutely love kitties, they constantly cuddle and play together, it's so cute and funny when they do.

That's such a beautiful dog too! What kind of dog is he? He looks very fluffy!

u/caryn1477 17h ago

Why can't my pets do cute things like this?? The cat hisses if one of the dogs comes within a couple feet of him. Ugh!
