Everybody needs good neigh-bours and this horseriding cat is no exception – pairing up with a pony for scenic rides.

They may not be the most obvious equestrian duo but as this hilarious footage shows, Comet the Pony and Louis the cat make the purr-fect pair as they go on treks together near their home in Devon.

The funny video was shot by professional horse trainer, Emma Massingale, who often finds the friends nuzzling up together after a day’s riding.

Emma has had Comet, a five-year-old Connemara Pony, for three years and Louis, a six-year-old Siamese cat, for about a year.
