Iris Halmshaw, a 6-year-old-girl with autism who's famous for her paintings, has formed an extra ordinary bond with her best friend, Thula, the cat. They do nearly everything together and Thula has made managing Iris' condition a lot better.

Thula as Iris' therapy animal is the perfect best friend the 6-year-old needed. Watch the two of them play and spend time together in this video below:
