This picture reveals the special bond between the pair with the cute moggie happy to eat, sleep and play with its companion.
The pair formed their relationship after five-year-old Maria Fedorov brought the hungry stray kitten home to her parents house in Moscow Russia.

Maria's father, Alexander, from, Moscow, Russia, said: 'When Maria found out she could keep the kitten she was full of joy.
The next morning while helping her mum with the morning shopping she saved a chick from a cat in the market square and also brought it home.

'Despite our fears both pets started to play with each other. They moved everywhere as twins, played, slept and even ate together.'
