It is really a story that warms our hearts. I have heard that a dog nursed a wolf cub.I think that made sense in the view of genetics.However it is a far cry between the dog and the cat.It was a very kind-hearted Pekingese.

The kitten was fortunate enough to run across this kind of dog.

yes a female animal will nurse any animal it is the mother in us. Scientists have seen that over and over again.

Personally it is always good when you see and hear stories like this, as it does help and shed some light on how great God is, and that miracles can happen, even from animals sometimes when you least expect it. I heard about this one, and it is amazing for sure. How touching as well.

It always amazes me that things like this happen. You don't see this very often. I think Zhou I'd brety much on control of things and he can use other animals to breathe life into a sick animal of another species.

That is a sweet story. I have heard several of these down through the years. Animals are either at each other's throat or bending over backwards to work together. They are selfless and nurture with a big heart. It is always impressive to see how animals interact. Take elephants for instance. All the women mother the babies and help out. They are one big happy family!

God is Amazing!! I love stories like this. Milk is milk, when it comes to being a kitten it doesn't matter where it comes from. So sweet!

That is totally amazing! God definitely works in mysterious ways! Animals are so caring a very smart! I know God gave us our dog for a reason, I'm hearing impaired and our dog alerts me to noises when I'm by myself.

I have heard of things like this happening. Did you see the story a couple of years ago on, I think it was Animal Planet, where this lion found this abandoned calf and followed it around and kept it safe. The calf because it couldn't get any milk started to weaken, the lion would hide the calf and hunt,then come back. She even slept with the calf, but one day while she was hunting another lion came across the calf and killed it. The lion grieved for the calf. The story may have been on NatGeo. It's amazing how animals that have been arch enemies, not to mention natural prey, can come to another one's rescue. I used to raise pitbulls and I found three kittens that were probably 6 or 7 weeks old. I took them home and fixed them a warm place in my shed (it was more like a nursery and a hospital ward for kittens and puppies and sick animals). It was really cold, the weather was calling for an ice storm. When I got home from work that night, about 2 a.m., I went out to bring them inside the house. I couldn't find them anywhere. I was so worried, (not just because of the cold but because I had 25 pitbulls in the yard) but I went inside and went to bed. As soon as it got daylight I went back outside to find them. I checked all over the yard and was relieved that they hadn't gone out to any of the dogs. It had come a huge ice storm, everything was white and frozen over. I started calling them and when I did my dog Gripper came out of his house. I talked to him and kept calling. I noticed that every time I called the kitties, Gripper would look inside his house, so I walked over and looked inside. There my kitties were, all three of them, safe and sound. They had found a way out of the shed and had went in the doghouse with Gripper. I was amazed. Gripper had never liked cats, but he befriended those kitties and kept them warm and safe. You know God had a hand in that. If lions can lay with calves and pitbulls can lay with kittens why can't people get along? We could learn something from these animals. Great story bunnybon7. Thank you.
