Isn't this cute?
http://pub.tv2.no/nettavisen/dagensb...icle455255.ece
The picture and the article taken from www.nettavisen.no, a Norwegian news site. The pig and the cat grew up together in a backyard in Bancavero, a Serbian village. They are the best friends in the world, and they play together all the time. I just wanted to share the picture with you, the cat looking so happy with the pig friend... It just shows that cats can live peacefully with all kinds of animals, if they just meet them at an early stage. -- Hans Schrøder |

Reminds me of the famous gorilla who had a cat as a 'pet'. The gorilla (wish I could remember the name) is world famous for it's 600 to 800 vocabulary of American sign language The gorilla *asked* for a kitten as a pet, and a kitten was given to the gorilla. While the gorilla had to be caged often (although is a very big, comfortable cage with an inside area, etc.. the cat could come and go as it pleased. And it *always* slept with the gorilla. *sigh) I wish I could remember more details, so I could do a search on the gorilla. Wasn't it Koko? Or something similar. The kitten was a white and orange tabby (I think). Yep on Koko, nope on the colors... http://www.koko.org/ Anyone remember the story better than I do? I remember seeing a story on TV, and pictures in a magazine, but it was quite a long time ago. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

All Ball was hit and killed by a car outside the compound, and when Penny Patterson (Koko's handler) told Koko, she (Koko) cried. Koko later got another kitty, this time a grey Manx that she named Smoky. Apparently Koko prefers cats without tails. Katrina |
