This Tiny Fox Is Over the Moon to See His Best Friend, but Look Who His Best Friend Is!

A white fox and a black puppy lying on dirt ground in natural outdoor setting, possibly spring or summer with bright daylight.

A fennec fox named Rupert and a cat named William are shown in a heart-warming video reuniting at the International Primate Rescue center in Pretoria, South Africa. The small fox and the cat have developed an extraordinary friendship despite their different species.

The International Primate Rescue in Pretoria, South Africa is a haven for 100 endangered  primates, along with two fennec foxes, one which is lovingly named Rupert.

Rupert was only 4 weeks old when he came to the rescue center. As time passed, he developed an extra extraordinary relationship with a household cat named William.

The clip below shows the reunion of these two adorable best friends. This goes on to show that friendship really does come in all shapes and sizes!

Fennec foxes are very small nocturnal animals found in the Sahara that are renowned for their tiny bodies and great big ears. Their bodies are uniquely adapted to the desert environment and their powerful  hearing helps them to avoid predators.
