When Chip the cat wanted to slip away from the world for a bit of peace and quiet, he found a hiding spot so purrfect, his mom had to ask dog bro Theodore if he knew where to find Chip. Theodore outed the clever kitty in a hurry, and you won’t believe where Chip was hiding. Let’s just say Theodore had a big part in helping the wily tabby hide!

Mom Melanie Shields posted the silly moment to TikTok, and with almost sixteen million views and 3.3 million likes, the social media world has fallen for Theodore and Chip’s sibling shenanigans!

Chip & Theodore, Buddies for Life

Theodore is a Bernese Mountain Dog, and that means he’s one big pooch. These large furry pups can easily weigh one hundred pounds or more. And Theodore uses his impressive size to hide Chip. Really, it’s not so much that Theodore is giving Chip the ultimate place to hide. Theodore is actually cuddling his kitty brother close.

In the video, looking at the camera with the sweetest eyes, Theodore listens as his mom asks, “Theodore, where’s Chippy?”

And surprise, there’s a gray tabby cat beneath that dog!

When Melanie shared the video of her asking Theodore about Chip’s whereabouts, TikTok lit up with laughter and comments. With a moment so funny and cute, there’s no surprise social media loved the cat and dog duo.
