No, Koda is not a stuffed toy ...

| »

Cute find of the day: Koda is a living, breathing horse – who stands at a mighty proud 23 inches tall, effectively making him just a bit taller than your average household cat.

He is so tiny, visitors often assume he's a stuffed toy. Standing at 59cm tall, if Koda the horse wants an equal he has to turn to the vetinary cat for company.

The 'American miniature' horse - who suffers the double-whammy of being born a dwarf - has had a bout of health problems caused by his size, but he is now recovering and enjoying the life of a pampered pet.
