The photo shows the baby and Poriko lying in bed with remarkably similar postures, as if they were twins. Poriko is seen with its belly exposed, limbs spread out, and its head tilted to the same side as the baby. The resemblance is so uncanny that even the owners couldn't help but joke about having "twins" without realizing it.
