Crows are cheeky sods, mom has one that will come to the door demanding food, benji can walk right up to it.

I was a little worried when I saw them wrestling! That could have easily gotten out of hand.

MathIsHard has a softest spot. That was really sweet.

Same here. That's almost a Baby Huey situation.

Lol. That clip was really funny. I thought it was most amazing that the crow was actually feeding the cat.

I would like to see what happens when the cat is full grown.

I hope this has a better result than this story.

Talk about a smack in the face.

Well, the crow and kitten stand a much better chance in someone's backyard in the suburbs. Maybe they will fare better than the lamb and the lion.

What is it that makes these pairings cute anyhow? My fuzzy gene seems to be broken.

I just think they're interesting because they are rare. There doesn't seem to be any reason for the crow to take this kind of an interest in the kitten, so it makes you wonder why something like this would happen.

Also they are considered "natural enemies," species-wise (e.g. cat & bird).

I think these situations humanize the animals involved, and can either justify one's belief and hope that biology need not be destiny, or challenge one's belief and hope that biology is destiny.

Either way, they pique our interest.

I'm with you... Clearly this crow is crying out for a suicide intervention! I didn't realize that crows even had suicidal thoughts until now.
