Cynthia Bennett and her boyfriend were at an adoption event when they first saw Henry. They were actually looking at other dogs and considering to adopt a golden retriever when she noticed him. He was bigger than the other dogs his age and was just sitting there when they decided to approach him.
When Cynthia got to his pen, he showed how friendly he was right off the bat. She recalled him making a beeline to her before curling up into her lap. Needless to say, that made them fall in love with him and they decided that he was coming home with them.
The couple loves hiking and they were hoping to take Henry to their adventures. Shortly after they got him, they took him on a hiking trip and they were glad to discover that he is a natural. He went ahead and climbed the highest rock and he comfortably looked over the edge from the top.
When they decided to extend their family, they wanted to get a rescue kitten. Cynthia shared that they looked for months for a cat with the right personality. They wanted their new soon-to-be new baby to love the outdoors too. Someone who can join their adventure trips.
Luckily, they found Baloo. Just like Henry, Baloo went and cling to her during their first meeting. It was obvious that the cat loves them but when she met Henry, she instantly liked him more. He became his favorite and they quickly became good friends.
They also discovered that Baloo did not need to be trained or prepared to go outdoors with them. He was a natural too. In fact, he refused to be left behind and insisted that he joins Henry and their parents in their adventures. He really loves going outside just like his brother.
Since then, they became the sweetest hiking buddies. They will sometimes put Baloo on Henry’s head and they take photos as they cuddle. Henry has been a very good big brother to Baloo, and he sure loves him back.
