Former Michael Vick Fighting Dog Is a Real Pussy Cat, ‘Most Loving Family Pet’ (VIDEO)

This pitbull, rescued from Michael Vick’s dog-fighting operation years ago, was never meant to be a fighter — he’s a lover. He even has a “Kitten Cuddle Tent” to prove it.

Cherry was one of 53 pit bulls rescued from Vick’s property in 2007, and is provides solid evidence that even dogs trained to fight can lose those tendencies in favor of tenderness.

Best Friends Animal Society rehabilitated Cherry and nine years later, the dog has a little boy, a family, and two cats he loves to snuggle with. His story even inspired a special play date for a pile of shelter kittens.

The Friends of Berlin Animal Control shelter threw him a backyard beach party with doggie cookies and ice cream — and they brought along a truckload of kittens for him to love.

Watch Cherry as he can’t stop wagging his tail and kissing the kitties that climb all over their new friend.
