And it's not always the Woman and the Dragon... At least one time, in ancient Japan, a Dragoness married a fisherman, taking him underwater to live with him in her Palace under the lake.

"¿En Qué Mundo Vivís?" (4)
"Siempre Quisimos Amamantar
Ratas Y Ratones Recién Nacidos
( Firmado, Nuevamente, Las Gatas )
Y Ahora, Por Fin, Estamos Haciéndolo"
Dongguan, Guangdong - 12 / 10 / 03
Deadly Huntress Mothers Potential Meal
Cats are commonly thought to be every Mouse’s nightmare. But a Dongguan resident surnamed Wang has learned this isn’t always the case, reported Information Times. He’s seen for himself that a Cat can be a rodent’s best friend. Shortly after Wang’s Cat gave birth to three Kittens, Wang caught an infant Mouse to feed the mother to keep up her strength, but he was surprised the next day to find the baby Mouse and Kittens happily playing together… And the mother even let the infant Mouse feed from her milk.

Two baby Mice rest near a Cat’s head as she feeds her new litter on a farm in Dongfeng County, northeast China’s Liaoning Province. The owner says she gave the Mice to the Cat to eat, but the feline soon adopted them.
April 11, 2007 - Mother Cat In Shijiazhuang...
The Cat was brought into a children’s clothing store to catch Mice, reports Yanzhao City News.
Ten days ago, the Cat gave birth to five Kittens. "She stays in the box all day long, taking care of her babies, but three days ago, my colleague found a small Mouse playing with the Kittens", said a spokesman for the store in Shijiazhuang City.
The Cat brought the Mouse to her residence in the market one day after she gave birth to her Kittens.
"The Cat was protecting the Mouse, and would become alert if anyone came too close".
The store staff threw the Mouse out once, but immediately the Cat -who dotes upon the Mouse as if it were one of her offspring-, showing distress and searching for her baby, ran to bring it back and let it play with her Kittens.

...And A Mother In Yantai
Sun Shujun, of Yantai City, says the Rat has been living with her Cat since the Kittens were born four weeks ago.
81 year old Sun says that a neighbour came to see the Kittens on the day they were born and was amazed to see a Rat suckling alongside them.
“At the beginning, I thought I must have seen wrong. So I took a flashlight and had a clear look”, said the neighbour.
The Rat not only drinks Cat's milk, but also plays with its Kitten brothers and sisters, according to the Qilu Evening Post.
The Cat reportedly treats the Rat exactly the same as her natural Kittens and it has become part of her family.
Sun reckons her maternal instincts must have overwhelmed her predatory instincts to allow her to adopt an animal she would normally see as prey.

Love Always Wins - 2
A Goat and a Wolf stay together peacefully
in a village in Balikun County,
Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region,
November 15. Last May,
the Wolf was found dying when it was a cub
and brought back home
by villagers, who then kept it
and fed it with Goat milk until now.
The Wolf will soon be returned to the wild.
So They Want To Sepparate Us...?
Don't Be So Sad...
I'll Remember All Our Happy Moments
...And I'll Remember You With ALL My LoveIn one of the animal world’s most unlikely love matches, zookeepers say a Wolf and a Goat have become inseparable sweethearts since sharing a cage together.
Zookeepers in Nanchong City, China, say the pair can’t bear to be without each other.
“If the Goat is gone for a bit, the Wolf will howl and run frantically around the cage until she comes back”, said keeper, Mr Xu.
Prey and predator only started dating by accident a month ago, Xu told the West China City News.
Early one morning I opened the Goat’s fence to let her out to eat, and unexpectedly the Wolf came out, because we hadn’t locked his cage securely”, he said.
“The Wolf ran straight to the Goat’s fence, and started howling when it smelled the Goat. The Goat was so scared you could see her legs shaking”.
Xu says he had to protect the Goat until other employees came to help separate the animals.
“But for the next several nights the two started getting to know each other better, and even exchanged howls and baas. You could tell they were flirting”, says Xu.
Five days later Xu and his colleagues came to a decision : “We thought, since they so much wanted to, why not put them together ? It’s really rare for a Wolf and a Goat to be so close”.
The zoo says that since being put together, the Wolf and the Goat have done everything together - except share meals. The Wolf sticks to his meat while the Goat enjoys a vegetable diet.

"Si No Los Hubiéramos Dejado Crecer..."
Si Hubieran Estado En China,
Tal Vez No Habrían Podido Hacer Nada De Esto...
-Little Tyke, Dos Hermanitas, Madre Vaca, Conejitos y Tigres,
Madre Increíble, Lobito y Oso, Madre Gata y Ratitas-
A Cuántos Como Ellos Mataron, O Matarán Aún,
Por Pieles O Para Hacer Una Sola Comida?

"Si No Los Hubiéramos Dejado Vivir..."
...En China, Corea, África y algún otro país, cuántos podrían haber tenido esta oportunidad.
Pero por causa de algunos, no la tuvieron.
¿A quiénes matarán entonces la próxima vez,
por pieles o comida exótica?
-Kamuniak, Gato y Grizzly, Saimai, Linda, Romeo y Julieta,
Tigres Chinos, Ginny, Gata con Ratoncito-
Dejemos que puedan tenerla.

"How Creatures Know What We Should"
Billy And The Kid
A Boxer Dog called Billy has become an unlikely surrogate father to a kid Goat at an animal centre in Devon.
Big hearted Billy formed a strong bond with abandoned kid Lily at Pennywell Farm, near Buckfastleigh, where they have become a popular attraction.
As the runt of triplets, Lily was abandoned by her mother because nanny Goats can usually only care for two kids at a time.
Farm workers Katherine Tozer stepped in to hand rear Lilly, but her pet Dog Billy made it obvious he was eager to get in on the parental action.
It soon became clear the Billy was happy to adopt Lilly as his own, and he now looks after her by licking and cleaning her and keeping a close eye on her.
Equally, Lilly seems just as happy to have Billy as her role model.The pair has now attracted quite a crowd at the animal centre and staff there are keen to see how their relationship will develop as Lilly grows up.
Unlikely best friends
A Rabbit and an Eagle have become unlikely best friends in China.
The owner of the Eagle put the rabbit in its cage at Beizhamen Bird Market, Zhengzho City, for the bird’s dinner.
But instead of following its predatory nature, the Eagle made friends with the startled but fortunate Rabbit.
“The Rabbit very humbly combs the Eagle’s feathers with its mouth”, the surprised owner told Oriental Today.“The Eagle is four-months-old, and I threw him the Rabbit for food, but apparently he doesn’t know how to enjoy his meals”.

Kittens Adopted By Rabbit
Six abandoned Kittens have found an unexpected new mother figure - a Rabbit.
Veterinary nurse Melanie Humble took the three-week-old Kittens to her Aberdeen home.
The Kittens seemed to think Summer the Rabbit was their mother and began to climb all over her and try to feed from her.
Efforts will be made to find the four males and two females permanent homes in the coming weeks.
Melanie, 29, told the BBC Scotland news website: “The abandoned Kittens were handed in when they were about three weeks old and I took them home”.
“Summer the Rabbit was taken inside on Bonfire Night because of the fireworks and the Kittens seemed to really like her and thought she was their mother”.
‘She’s gigantic’
She added: “They were trying to get milk from her and climbing over her. And Summer was not bothered by them at all”.
“Summer is five months old and she’s gigantic. It is lovely to see them all together. “They are all doing well and Cats Protection will re-home them”.
