2. The story...

Check out this amazing sight of a cat nursing a batch of fluffy ducklings. Ronan and Emma Lally of County Offaly, Ireland, were wondering where their three newly hatched ducklings were when they spotted their cat, who goes by the name The White Cat, sneaking off with a duckling crammed in her mouth. They were sure she was up to no good (like Sylvester traumatizing Tweety Bird), but they were wrong. The White Cat was adding the ducklings to her litter of newborn kittens, expanding her family into an animal "Brady Bunch." The Lallys found her nursing the whole brood, which gives us something sweet to watch and pretty much earns her the "Best Mom of the Week" crown.

4. I hope Mama kitty doesn't get too traumatized when her feathered babies

decide to go for a swim. That is just too cute.

5. How do ducklings know how to suckle? How CAN they, with those beaks?

At least the beaks aren't pointy.
