Kris and Remus

Of all of the domestic animals in zoos across the country, probably none is as famous right now as Remus, the rescue dog at the Cincinnati Zoo who has been paired with Kris, a young cheetah whose mother was unable to care for her (she is the sole survivor of her litter).     

Here are some cute videos of the pair.  A lot of smug folks on the internet swear that Kris will eventually eat Remus, but there's little risk of that. Cheetahs in zoos that are slated for a career as an ambassador animal are often paired with dogs, who will serve as companions and help keep the cats calm and comfortable, but this pair is especially lovable.  In fact, the only thing that worries me is the pair having an "accident" arranged by Cincinnati's other star animal, the Plump Princess herself, Fiona.  

She's just not the sort of animal I see sharing the limelight graciously...
