CRANBROOK, Canada - A family awoke
Tuesday to find their Cat nursing two Mice along with her seven week-old
Kittens.
Irene Weller said one of her daughters
found some baby Mice in their home the day before.
"I didn't want Mice in the
house". Weller said. So the baby rodents were promptly thrown outside.
But on Tuesday morning, the Wellers saw
their Cat Patches nursing and caring for the Mice as if they were part of her
litter. She's actually feeding the Mice.
Patches was upset they weren't in the
bed. All she wanted to do was lick them.
"When we put them back in the bed
Patches calmed right down".

As she had her Kittens, in the same house a mother Rat had her babies.
Suddenly the baby Rats ran to Kitty and the Cat accepted them full of happiness...
But, what about the Kittens?

…And of course, to feed them as their mother.

My birthday present!!! - (It's October 11)
Oh, how I was waiting this... And the
video appeared right in my birthday. It also must have come in the most right
moment, with some threats which may come from the countries between middle East
and China. This must have been the year of all those real
Cats (with all the stories I found), from past, present, and of course, a
future of nursing many more Rats and Mice!

"Arch-enemies form unlikely bond -
Fans of cartoon nemesis Tom and Jerry have reason to be outraged over the
show's factual authenticity in Thailand,
Cats and rodents apparently form quite different partnerships. In Samut Prakan Province's
Pra Pradaeng District, the neighbors of Sompong Koocharoen were puzzled to see
a two-year-old female Cat breastfeeding a small baby Rat along with one of her
own new-born Kittens.
Mrs Sompong said her Cat had just delivered three
Kittens on March 1, but two of them had been separated from their mother and
adopted by a friend. She said that a week after the Kittens were separated, the
mother returned home with a young baby Rat -its body still red and hairless-and
put it beside her Kitten.
"I thought she would give food
only for her baby, but she let the Rat drink her milk along with her
Kitten", Mrs. Sompong said. The unlikely family have become a
neighborhood sensation, with community members inundating the household with
photo requests.

Second
wonder - I guess that what you'll read here is exactly what the original note
said.
10 June 1892
Here
is a Cat that didn't kill the Rat that ate the malt.
Dr.
F. Evwist of St. Mary's, Ohio, found in his barn a few days ago a large Rat
nursing three Kittens. When the mother Cat returned she relieved the Rat, which
went to sleep in the hay. Next day the Doctor and some friends saw the Cat go
up to a large rat-hole meowing several times, whereupon the Rat came forth and
took its place among the Kittens.
Third
wonder
The
Singapore Free Press, 9 March 1950, Page 8
Rat
adopts Kittens
From
the communist stronghold of Pyinmana, Central Burma, comes a report of a white
Rat adopting two Kittens and sharing mealtime duties with the mother Cat. This
strange family lives harmoniously in the shell-damaged railway station.
Fourth
wonder
Masson & McCarthy (1995) tell in one of their books about a Rat suckling a Cat and a Chick.
Pleeeease, I want to see this story, soon...
Fifth
wonder... (If I can find more of these stories, maybe it'll be time to make a
new entry)

This video is like one of my dreams come true... I only wish I had seen the mother Rat nursing them, such as shows the description:

My
Rat Artamis helped me out by helping to care for two orphaned Kittens. She
would go in and out of the box and groom and stimulate the Kittens. She laid on
her side and let them suckle on her nipples to calm them and help them sleep.
When they were smaller she would carry them around by their scruffs and move
them around the box. Very sweet, unfortunately my Cats now like to chew on
random things and climb into small spaces like the Rat. They also sleep on
their backs with their feet up because of how the Rat would lay to keep them
warm and comfort them.
RIP
Artie.
But
I'm much more than happy of having found this beautiful video!!!
Well, and the future?
It may come anywhere, anytime,
But if I can do something, it will come soon
And be like a dream come true.
At least for me, at first;
The world
will have to wait.
