Postmen often visit countless houses on their tours each day, and it might sound strange if we say that they can become our pets’ best friends, but for Cristiano da Silva Antunes, a postman from Sao Paulo, Brazil, this is completely real.
In his social networks, Angelo Cristiano da Silva Antunes has become known as “Carteiro Amigo Dos Animais”, which translates as “Postman Friend of Animals.” He thinks it’s important to let go of the cartoonish stereotype that dogs hate postmen and he’s really getting it through with every selfie he can get.
Postman takes selfies with animals he meets at work
Every photograph that he gets is incredible and shows the good relationship that he can have with any type of pet; from birds, cats, rabbits and of course dogs.
Cristiano not only collects photographs of the pets he knows; he also does a great job outside of his working hours. He rescues animals that need urgent veterinary care or help from shelters, reports Bored Panda.
Not only does the admirable postman take selfies with pets, he even dreams of opening his own animal shelter to help many more animals in need.
Cristiano explains that becoming friends with a dog as a postman is not an easy task; He must first greet him, let him recognize him and sniff him, keeping a distance so that the animal can identify him and with a little time and patience he can get closer and closer, until he completely gains his trust.
Not surprisingly, the friendly postman has his own pets. He and his wife have some dogs and three cats, and he has had animals since he was a child, so he considers that his empathy for them is due to the fact that he was always surrounded by them.
Undoubtedly, this friendly postman and his adorable selfies have his followers delighted on social networks, who are always waiting for the next image that Cristiano publishes to show that friendship between a postman and an animal is not impossible.
