Last night our house had two cats and the mad dog slouched in front of the fire. The dog then got up and trotted to his basket. He fetched a small teddy bear and brought it to the girl cat – dropping it next to her face. He then ran straight back to the basket, picked up a well chewed toy bone and similarly placed it this time next to the boy cats face. Finally he fetched another well loved toy and this time slouched back in front of the fire and started to happily chew. Where did that come from. I was stunned watching it. But that’s one of my Kindness nominations.
My second RAKA happened at the last Newcastle United match I went to with our son. We walked out of the stadium and towards the metro system (the cities Train system). At the escalators a random middle aged man just handed his football programme to our son and just said “there you go kiddo” and then just walked off to catch the train. Completely random and very kind.
Third RAKA is another pet related one. A marathon runner came across an abandoned puppy. She picked up the dog and carried it to the end of the race. She tried to find the owners but failed. Finally she adopted the dog.

I love that your dog did that with the cats. So sweet.

I wish I had filmed it. If only for the look on the boy cats face when that smelly toy was dumped near his face…. Thank you

My dog would never do anything nice for anther animal! But then, my boys wouldn’t do that for each other either! … Great stories… 👍

My dogs attitude has changed since the boy cat became a mobile stew dinner plate. Think he’s just keeping in with them, just in case….

They are all really great acts of kindness – your dog sounds so sweet! I cannot believe she carried a dog for her last 19 miles – wow!

I wonder if she would carry me if I stopped running 7 mikes into the race… No but that’s was so nice of her, many wouldn’t do it. Maybe you should start practicing for that eventuality- start running with a ruck sack and some weights inside…
