In a quiet little village where the air was always filled with the sweet scent of ripe fruit and the laughter of children, a newborn baby had just joined the world. Her name was Lina, and her parents adored her with all their hearts. Everyone in the house was excited about her arrival, but no one expected the two most surprising guardians to step up—Cute CUTIS, the farmer’s loyal dog, and a mischievous baby monkey who had become part of the family.
CUTIS was a big golden dog with kind eyes that always seemed to understand the people around him. He had lived with the family for years, helping the farmer in the fields and watching over the children when they played. Beside him was the baby monkey, a small creature full of energy and curiosity. The family had rescued the monkey months earlier, and since then, it had become inseparable from CUTIS. The two were an unlikely pair, yet they shared a bond as strong as brothers.
When Lina was brought home for the first time, everyone gathered around her tiny crib. CUTIS wagged his tail slowly, sniffing the baby with gentle care. The baby monkey tilted his head, wide-eyed, fascinated by the little human wrapped in a soft blanket. Almost instantly, the two animals seemed to understand that Lina was special and needed to be protected.
At first, the family thought it was simply curiosity. But as days passed, it became clear—CUTIS and the baby monkey had taken it upon themselves to guard Lina as if she were their own.
The First Test of Loyalty
One afternoon, while Lina was napping peacefully, her mother went outside to wash clothes by the river. The house was quiet, but CUTIS and the monkey sat faithfully by the baby’s crib. Suddenly, a shadow crept through the open window. A large crow, curious and bold, swooped in and landed near Lina, pecking at a piece of cloth.
CUTIS growled softly, ears sharp. The baby monkey squealed, leaping onto the window ledge, waving his little arms furiously. The crow flapped its wings, startled by the sudden defense, and quickly escaped into the sky. CUTIS stood over the crib, nose close to Lina, checking to make sure she was safe, while the monkey patted the blanket as if reassuring the baby.
When Lina’s mother returned and saw CUTIS standing guard and the monkey still alert by the crib, she was amazed. From that day on, she began to trust them even more, knowing that the newborn was in good hands—or rather, good paws.
A Night of Unexpected Danger
The real test came one stormy night. The wind howled, and the rain poured down in torrents. The thunder shook the wooden shutters, and the family huddled together in the small living room, trying to stay warm. Lina slept peacefully in her crib near the window, with CUTIS lying at her feet and the baby monkey curled up beside her.
Suddenly, there was a strange scratching sound at the door. The farmer grabbed a lantern to check, and to his surprise, he saw a stray wildcat lurking outside, drawn to the warm glow of the house. Wild and hungry, the animal looked ready to push its way in.
The moment the latch rattled, CUTIS sprang up, barking with a deep, powerful voice that echoed through the storm. The monkey screeched, jumping onto the back of a chair and puffing itself up as big as possible, waving its arms in warning. The combined noise startled the wildcat, making it hesitate.
But the danger wasn’t over yet. With the storm raging, the wildcat tried again, pawing at the door. CUTIS lunged forward, pressing his weight against the wooden frame, keeping it shut. The monkey, quick as lightning, grabbed a wooden spoon from the table and began banging it on the wall, adding more noise to scare the predator. The family rushed to help, but it was the bravery of CUTIS and the monkey that truly kept the wildcat from breaking inside.
At last, the farmer managed to chase the animal away with a burning torch. When the danger had passed, CUTIS went back to Lina’s crib, sniffing and licking her tiny hands gently, while the baby monkey nestled beside her once more, patting her chest like a protective brother.
Protectors During the Day
In the days that followed, CUTIS and the monkey grew even more attached to Lina. During the day, when the family worked in the fields, they placed the crib in the shade of a tree. CUTIS would lie close by, eyes scanning the horizon for any sign of danger. The baby monkey would climb the branches above, keeping watch from the treetop like a little guard.
Whenever flies or insects buzzed near Lina, the monkey would swipe at them with quick, playful hands, while CUTIS wagged his tail softly to fan the air and keep her cool. Sometimes, when Lina cried, CUTIS would nuzzle her gently, and the monkey would bring little flowers or leaves, trying to cheer her up.
Villagers who passed by often stopped in amazement at the sight. They couldn’t believe their eyes—an old farm dog and a playful baby monkey taking care of a newborn as if they were her elder siblings.
The Most Unbelievable Moment
The most unbelievable moment happened one sunny afternoon. Lina’s mother was carrying water from the well, and Lina was resting in her crib under the tree, watched closely by CUTIS and the monkey. Suddenly, a snake slithered through the grass, its scales glistening in the sunlight. Quiet and deadly, it moved straight toward the crib.
CUTIS was the first to notice. With a loud bark, he jumped forward, blocking the snake’s path. The monkey shrieked, grabbing a stick from the ground. CUTIS growled, baring his teeth, while the monkey bravely struck the snake with quick, sharp hits. The snake hissed, coiling, but CUTIS lunged at it, snapping his powerful jaws just close enough to scare it away.
The snake finally retreated into the bushes, leaving the crib untouched. CUTIS stood panting, his body shielding Lina, while the monkey crouched beside the baby, patting her as though checking if she was alright.
When the mother rushed over and saw what had happened, she burst into tears of relief and gratitude. She hugged CUTIS tightly, whispering thanks, and kissed the little monkey’s head. That day, the whole family realized that Lina was not just their daughter—she had two fearless guardians who would risk everything for her.
A Bond Like No Other
As Lina grew, the bond only deepened. She giggled whenever the monkey swung down to tickle her or when CUTIS let her grab his ears. The three became inseparable. Wherever Lina went, her guardians followed—one strong and steady, the other quick and clever.
The villagers often told the story of that baby girl and her unbelievable protectors. They said it was fate that had brought them together, and that the loyalty of CUTIS and the courage of the baby monkey proved that love and protection know no boundaries—not of species, not of size, not of age.
Conclusion
Cute CUTIS and the baby monkey were not just animals. They were family. They had shown bravery in the face of danger, patience in moments of care, and love beyond words. Lina’s parents often said that their daughter had the safest childhood in the village because she had two guardians who never left her side.
And so, the story of how a dog and a monkey protected a newborn baby in the most unbelievable way became a cherished memory in the village, a reminder of how love can unite even the most unlikely of friends—and turn them into heroes.
