A litter of kittens just three weeks old were abandoned by their mother and found themselves in the care of veterinary nurse, Melanie Humble, who lives in Aberdeen, Scotland. The kittens were immediately attracted to Melanie’s pet rabbit, Summer, who patiently allows them to climb all over her. It seems Summer does not mind being a mother figure to these little ones.

The Cat and The Crow

by Ann on November 15, 2007


This is an amazing story about a crow that befriended a stray kitten and actually fed it worms and bugs to help it stay alive. These two are the best of friends. Watch them as they engage in gentle play and even a prank or two. This is one of the best stories I’ve seen. Enjoy!
