Cat Gives Birth to Litter and then Lends Teat to Baby Squirrel

A tender cat that had just given birth gave her owners a bit of a shock when she was found to not only to be nursing her kittens, but a squirrel too.

According to her owner – a Redditor who posted the incredible pictures online – the adult cat had only given birth one day before she brought in the ‘shivering and breathing squirrel’ which had ‘no signs of a mother.’

‘We took him inside and called the vet. He said that if our cat had just given birth, there’s a very high chance she would care for the squirrel without a second thought. And that is exactly what she did,’ the Redditor explained.

The Good Samaritan cat didn’t stop there, however, as she went out two days later and ‘came back from under the porch with another one.’

Alongside her kittens she placed the second new creature with the first.

The litter reportedly all sleep together in their home on a farm, and the youngster is even sometimes carried around in the mouth of its new mum just like one of her own.

Haha thats a cool pic, but dont forget in the uk you can legally kill them as the grey squirrels are pests.

yep. Another problem caused by bankers

Thomas Brocklehurst, a Victorian banker who lived at Henbury Park in Cheshire, has a lot to answer for. In 1876, he decided to release into the wild a pair of grey squirrels he had brought back with him from a business trip to America. Other landowners, viewing the non-native species as a fashionable garden novelty, soon followed suit.
