An adorable panther cub, rejected by its mother at birth in a Siberian zoo, finds a new home with a zoo keeper and finds a friend for life in her rottweiler.
Siberia – as the saying goes, opposites attract. It is used whenever an explanation is needed for a relationship between two apparently completely different people. But even among animals, there are always bonds that you think are impossible until you see them with your own eyes. But no matter whether human or animal, unconventional teams almost always trigger fascination in their viewers. So does the friendship venza and Luna – a female Rottweiler and a female panther.
Luna came into one in the summer of 2020 Zoo in Siberia to the world. Her mother rejected her, refusing milk and nursing for unknown reasons. Luna’s chances of survival were slim. Animal keeper Victoria (31) discovered the dying panther baby and decided to feed the completely helpless ball of fur.
After three months of care and milk from the bottle, Luna was healthy again and had long since become dear to her rescuer. Again DailyStar reports that Victoria eventually offered to buy Luna from the zoo. The zoo agreed and Victoria took Luna home with her, where her dog Venza lives.

Panther Luna and Rottweiler Venza: More followers on TikTok than Heidi Klum
The rapprochement process between the Rottweiler and the cat of prey lasted a few days and was completed in small steps. At first they were physically separated, so that the two could get used to the smell of the other before they met for the first time.
After almost a week, the two met for the first time. “It was love at first sight” (Merkur.de* reported) Victoria raves on her YouTube channel. The little panther and the dog became friends, even pretty much best friends: They cuddle, play, run and explore the world together. “They’re inseparable,” says Victoria.
Luna is now ten months old and weighs around 21 kilograms (as of March 2021). Victoria has decided to share her animal family happiness with the world. On the three main social media channels, TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook YouTube shows she posts photos and videos of Luna and Venza’s super cute interaction. 7.3 million users follow TikTok alone Luna_the_pantera and are looking forward to new content about the extraordinary and heartwarming animal friendship.
Luna is now being trained by Victoria to live with people and pets* over the long term. But that’s “no reason to worry,” she says and promises: “Luna will never perform in a circus.” *Merkur.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA
