Sadly, two years ago, the 15-year-old ginger passed away due to thyroid cancer, and Forsberg the Golden was devastated. 

The 10 year-old pooch was looking for his buddy everywhere but he was nowhere to be found. His owner Jen Philion decided to get him a new kitty that could help him heal.

“Forsberg really missed having a cat,” Philion wrote on Reddit. “Problem solved!”

Almost immediately, Forsberg became a happy smiling dog again!
