Henry and Baloo: Dog and cat travel companions gain cult following

By Kelly-Leigh Cooper
BBC News
6 April 2018

Best friends Henry and Baloo have a lot in common - they have both been rescued and now enjoy long walks in the great outdoors. What makes them special to their many fans is that they are a dog and cat travelling duo.

Their unlikely friendship and hiking trips around the beautiful mountainous landscapes of Colorado have gained the pair a cult social media following.

Hundreds of thousands of people follow their adventures on the photo-sharing platform Instagram.

For owners Cynthia Bennett and Andre Sibilsky, their popularity is surreal.

Years ago my husband and his fellow soldiers were out in the severe cold and the only warm place was inside their vehicle.

So they all - 5 of them - got in, spooned each other, and used all the covers they had to stay warm.

They slept that way until someone let loose with flatulence.

One guy said, "Gross. Chili. Someone ate chili."

Another guy replies, "You the expert on the bouquet of farts or something?"

They all laughed, snuggled closer, and went back to sleep.
