So, let’s talk about Delilah the cat and her adorable encounter with foster guinea pig Reginald. Courtney Hill, a volunteer animal foster parent from Durham, North Carolina, welcomed Reginald into her home on February 9, and let me tell you, Delilah was quite intrigued by the little guy.
Now, Courtney usually fosters rabbits, so Delilah was a bit puzzled by this new addition to the family. In a TikTok video that went viral with over 2.2 million views, we see Delilah approaching Reginald with a mixture of curiosity and confusion.
At first, Reginald seems a bit unsure as Delilah saunters over to his cozy nest on the couch. Then, out of nowhere, Delilah gives him a little tap on the back with her paw. Reginald jumps to the side, giving Delilah a skeptical look.
In the caption, Courtney wrote, “I think Delilah prefers when we foster bunnies over fostering guinea pigs. Poor Reginald… such a good sport.”
Now, if you were worried that Reginald might have been in danger, don’t fret! Courtney made it clear that Reginald is perfectly fine and even enjoys chasing Delilah around sometimes.
In an interview with Newsweek, Courtney reassured everyone, saying, “Reginald isn’t scared and is often the one chasing Delilah around.” She emphasized that she would never put any animal in harm’s way and always supervises their interactions closely.
You see, Delilah was just curious about this fluffy little creature making oinking noises. Courtney knows her pets well and understands how to introduce them safely. She hopes that her adorable videos will help raise awareness about the importance of animal fostering.
So, rest assured, folks, Delilah and Reginald’s unlikely friendship is nothing short of heartwarming, and it’s all for a good cause!
