  Kittens ‘adopted’ by pet rabbit (source BBC News Website)
  Six abandoned kittens have found an unexpected new mother figure – a pet 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 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."

  That’s adorable!!!!! I wonder if kittens could actually survive on rabbit milk? We drink cow’s milk right? (although not as babies…)

  I’m worried those lil kitty claws might hurt the bunny mommy, since bunnies have such thin skin 🙁 I hope they’ll all be ok

  a couple things came to mind… aside from them being unbelievably cute…
  
  1st… it said Summer was brought inside b/c of fireworks… so could it be that she’s not accustomed to the new surroundings and is just timid and therefore letting the babies have their way with her…?
  
  2nd… it didn’t say if she’s spayed or not… but if not, at 5 months old, those hormones will be kicking in pretty soon… i hope she doesn’t hurt the kittens or vice verse.

  I was worried about kitten claws as well. Kittens have claws like little needles. They are SOOOO sharp and they hurt!
