Moderators Denise Posted July 17, 2007 Moderators Share Posted July 17, 2007 IT's enough to make Looney Tunes' famous animated cat, Sylvester, weep. A feline has shown that maternal instincts can overcome predatory ones by adopting seven chicken chicks to bring up with its own kittens. Nimra, a one-year-old cat in the city of Madaba which lies just south of Amman in Jordan, has been looking after the chicks since their mother hen died a month ago. After recently giving birth to four kittens Nimra keeps them and her unlikely extra brood together in a cardboard box. If the chicks wander too far onlookers say Nimra will gently pick them up in her mouth and take them back to the box.

Moderators Denise Posted July 17, 2007 Author Moderators Share Posted July 17, 2007 I thought it was cute that the chickens looked like the same color as their momma cat!
