So, if you couldn’t find yours, would you think to ask the dog?

Melanie was looking for her cat, Chippy, and decided to ask her Bernese Mountain Dog, Theodore.

Theodore was lying on his bed with such an innocent look you know he was hiding something.“Theodore, where’s Chippy?” Melanie asked her dog.

From the way he was lying down and his face, it looked like Theodore was going to pretend he doesn’t know anything.

He was just going to stay down and look at Mom with those eyes that will make you feel sorry you asked.

But then there’s the cutest surprise…
Theodore has been hiding his cat brother under him the whole time!
Turns out, Chippy had a snoozing spot in the dog’s warm and comfy fur.

As one viewer commented:“That cat has the best bodyguard ever. Forever protected.”

Theodore wanted non-stop cuddles from Chippy.
After the “game was up,” Theodore decided to give his little buddy lots of love.

He immediately started licking and kissing Chippy.
It’s not too clear if Chippy loved it or was annoyed by it – but it’s pretty darn cute.

Whether Theodore knew what Chippy’s reaction was, he wasn’t going to let him go anytime soon.

Chippy moved as if to leave the bed, but Theodore moved his paw so Chippy couldn’t leave.

But Chippy isn’t actually trapped.
His mom said Chippy wouldn’t let himself be cuddled like this if he didn’t like it.

Viewers couldn’t help but gush at the amazing brotherhood of Theodore and Chippy.
