Dinozzo, the three-week-old fox, was found after his mother got hit and killed by a car. While most baby animals can’t survive the harsh world all alone, this little guy was lucky enough to be rescued and taken to a vet.

Werner and Angelika Schmaing, a couple in Oberscheld, heard about little Dinozzo and decided to adopt him. Their family includes a Bengal cat named Leopold, a sweet Collie named Ziva, and two piglets. The animals have a huge yard to roam, which Dinozzo can easily access through the cat door!

It wasn’t long before Dinozzo formed an especially close bond with new Mama Ziva, and kitty Leopold has also welcomed him into his new home. He has since gained strength and is a happy, healthy young fox!

Bugsy lives at the Twycross Zoo in England, and he loves to befriend the animals there. But when Bugsy and Malone met, they bonded instantly. Watch the the video below and see how much they love each other!

A week-old fawn who may have been abandoned by his mother likely wouldn’t have survived had he not been found by some farmers in Germany.  But because of their help, and his new puppy mom, he is thriving.

It is unknown what happened what happened to the baby deer’s mother; she may have been killed, or simply abandoned her young.  He was found near a hop field in Regensburg by a farmer who happened to know a family who had raised deer before.

The family named the fawn Hansi, and with bottle-feeding and love, nursed him to good health.  But the family member who loves him the most is 12-week-old Australian shepherd puppy Lia.

Her motherly tendencies – or perhaps sisterly – developed early, and after only a few weeks the two are inseparable.  They spend all day playing, romping around, and snuggling together.

Pet photographer and microbiologist Anna Auerbach has got their endearing relationship on film.

“The two of them get along really well. Hansi sees Lia and the other dogs she is being brought up with as family,” she explained.  “The shoot only took about 30 minutes. All I had to do was lie on the grass and wait for the right moments – there were so many.”
