  • TOP NEWS! in Mississippi is this really all they can cover down there?

  • @RUNproductionz You ever been to Mississippi? Not much else happens there, ya know......

  • Squirrels do these behaviors naturally. They have other similarities to cats also, like growing. A squirrel growls just like a cat does.

  • Awesome!

  • so kitten

  • what a dumb story, animals do this type of thing all the time... as humans all we can do is stare at it and marvel in wonder...

  • hehe

  • it will learn how to take care of it self... you wait

  • awwwww

  • Thanks Mr. Watkins for caring for the animals.

    There's a lot we humans can learn from other species, namely how to get along and live together in peace - a few famous names come to mind throughout the centuries that told that to us...

  • @classicgamer1968

    except this is an exception in the animal world... normally they would get bitten or eaten...

  • Dumbasses. Just because a baby squirrel had an easy upbringing, does not mean it can't survive on it's own. It will still dig holes and find food and make nests. Lions that escape from zoos never starve to death.

  • Squirrels are rodents. Rodents and Humans are Supraprimates. Humans and Cats are ambush predators. Ambush predators possess parallels in behavior and human evolution is relative to the squirrel, which means evolution would hold common traits between humans and squirrels. Though distantly related, humans and cats share common traits due to common evolution in a similar environment.

    Thus human behavior can be demonstrated in cats and rodents. And thus we can see cats and rodents getting along.

  • oohh.. :D how cute!

  • I have a friend who was kicked out of his house and he found a baby squirrel. Some neighborhoods know him as the Homeless Squirrel Guy. Oh yes... and the squirrels name is Can (as he kept it in an old bean can).

  • Maybe this guy's Mama will come callin' for him, too. You should listen for her.

  • I found a baby squirrel the cats had trapped and put it in my cat carrier with water and food (fruit) and called the Wildlife Society to pick it up. Before they got there, hours later, I heard all this bustle on the roof: It was the Mama come calling for her baby! I put the carrier out on the deck, stepped back, and watched her come and get him - she carried him away right on her back! But not before giving me a nod of thanks :-).

  • Aww take good care of that baby!

  • Awww! That's so sweet! Except that at my house... Squirrels are always on our feeder! It gets really annoying! But I still love em!

  • see how easy it is yew stoopid hyuemanZ....

  • That is awesome.

  • You people are awsome.

  • I just saw a horrible video of a cat torturing a poor squirrel to death, this video makes me feel better about all in animals in general!!!! :)))))) shows they only attack to eat unlike people who enjoy seeing suffering.

  • LOLWUT?

  • So it likely that this squirrel will eat meat? Imagine a squirrel catching birds. That would be crazy.

  • i want that cute little squirrel

  • Will the squirrel grow up hating other squirrels?

  • omg my gosh so freakin cute purring baby squirrel sqeeeee

  • DO WANT

  • It's not every day that cats and squirrels prove they can coexist together. You could learn a lot from this video.

  • Oh my god it purrs

    THAT IS THE CUTEST THING EVER

  • Awweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee omg!

  • check out my video, i got 3 baby squirrels and they are just the cutest little bundles of joy :)

  • lol and people say adoption is not natural...

  • Squirrels purr anyway.

  • Repost from kat...cute...

  • All squirrels purr.....fo reals. Look it up.

  • brb gonna steal a baby squirl give it to my cat. later on get rid of the cat and keep a pet squirrel

  • NO FKING WAY IT PURRS? How can people think animals don't have souls?

  • I raised a baby squirrel.. she purred... they dont learn it from cats its instinctive

  • I found raised a squirrel ... they pur instinctively .. it didnt learn it from a cat

  • I can learnz purr?

  • Sqeeeeee!!!

  • 2:00 All young squirrels make this noise. It has nothing to do with the fact that it has been adopted by a cat. In fact, I found a squirrel this same age in my back yard last week and it also made that "purring" sound.

  • @Masowai Now this has me wondering if I made your mom purr or if it's just her instinct. lmao j/k.

  • I love his smile at 2:05 ! he looks so happy to have that little guy!

  • KAWAII!!!

  • Frickin adorable!!

  • We just found a 5 week old baby squirrel in the snow bank. it was freezing to death, we rescued it and are trying to take care of it. we REALLY need to find an animal sanctuary to take him to since he is so young and needs care. we live in NY state, and are currently looking for an animal rehabilitation center to take the lil guy to.

  • @JesterEve If you feed him make sure to feed him puppy milk replacer, never feed him cow's milk, or feed him while he's on his back or if he's cold. did you find somewhere to take him?

  • @JesterEve Try calling your local branch of Cornell Cooperative Extension. They should know who to call.

  • get it adopted by humans and itll learn to talk

  • so sweet

  • oooh goodness!! thats soooo damn cute

  • That is the most adorable thing in the world!

  • OMG THAT'S SO CUTE!!!! XDDD I have never heard a squirrel purrr, lol. XDDD

  • Scientifically animals aren't supposed to be capable of love [or emotion as we humans know it]. But this video proves that whole theory wrong. An animal, who instinctually should have eaten that baby squirrel, instead took it in as one of her own.

  • @bkglamb it happens all the time. it doesn't mean the animal loves anything it just has a stronger need to mother the little creature. Like the lion that adopted a baby calf (i think it was a buffalo or something) I seen it on animal planet the variety or companionship created are down right strange but it doesn't prove any greater capability for love. if any animal was capable I'd say it was the elephant or the dolphin. Both are incredibly intelligent and elephants will mourn a lost herd mate.

  • @2Simple2Blink I think you're being a bit short sighted here!Cat's are highly intelligent and aware.I believe from what I have seen that all creatures have their own unique character traits just like we do!My cat is very much his own little person and shows it!I think really this story and others like it tell us allot about the adaptability of nature.Go Emmy!

  • @bkglamb scientifically youre "scientific" theory that animals arent supposed to have emotions makes no sense

  • @bkglamb guess you never heard about nature vs nurture

  • @p90xsteroids God gave mother's an extra instinct most of us guys wouldn't know.

  • Just goes to show you that God doesn't make junk.

  • That is just the cutest thing ive seen by far (:

  • yes its true, i have a pet squirle her name is ikey,

    she almost 3 yrs old.

    and she is our pet, were scared to let her out in the wild because we know she wont survive.

  • :0 A squirrel can purr?...

  • The squirrel kind of nibbled a kitten's leg.

    That's adorable, and neat. A squirrel is a pet. Squirrels are getting more comfortable with humans nowadays (a juvenile squirrel usually hangs around my house, and seems to wait for us to notice he's there), but nothing like this squirrel. I doubt she'd like being inside that much.

  • So cute :)

  • Adorable! my pet rats "brux" which is the rodent equivalent of purring but the fact that this squirrel has learned to do this audibly is remarkable!

  • cuuuuuuuuute!

  • @1.30 - CAN'T HANDLE THE CUTENESS *-*

  • that made my day.

  • aawww... that is cutest purr i've ever heard!!

  • OMFG

  • well a lion female once took care of 8 - 9 deer baby's unfortunatly... they all died, either eaten, or starved cuz they coudn't get the milk from her...

    it was quit amazing, i think you can find the hole think on animal planet webside or on google :) htye show the story sometimes on animal planet...

    i think its great that animals has began to act more more sensible, they take crae of each others baby's like this cat! i thin its great! :D

  • wouldn't you be afraid the squirrel might make the cats sick?

  • All baby squirrels purr like that, look it up on thesquirrelboard since google search is now saturated with this bs story.

    The cat taking care of it like one of her own is amazing tho...

  • i always wonder how these adoptions end up? anyone got a video of that?!

  • An extremely slow news night in Mississippi!

  • I've seen something similar. My friends had a dog and they adopted an abandoned kitten they found. About 4 months later the kitten acted very similar to the dog. The funniest thing it did was beg at the dinner table.

  • I LOVE THE MOTHER NATURE!!

  • that's amazing!! i want the squirrell!!!! lol

  • Increible!!!

  • Nature is always full of surprises!

  • that guys my neighbor(and cousin) i went over there today and fed it a pecan and it purred really loud.. it made my day

  • Any cuter and the world would blow up.

  • When I was a kid, we had a flying squirrel, Mister. He was in our family for 9 years.

  • Its a SPY!

  • i miss the baby squirrels i had to raise at the local camp ground and the purring thing thats normal haha

  • crazy cat lady 1:15

  • Reminds me of the cat in Garfield who was raised by squirrels.

  • @hatterlet

    haha, i remember that.

    wasn't the cat's name, Ed?

  • Cute

  • Why would you unlike this video! Look at that FACE!!!!! *gushes*

  • Awwweee!!!!

  • Is this CNN??  Lol.

  • He's so cute! :D

  • Precious! I have a dog that took to my foster kittens. Wish she had been a momma dog that could have nursed.

    That was one sweet purr.

  • Precious! I have a dog that took to my foster kittens. Wish she had been a momma dog that could have nursed.

  • awwwwwwwwww

  • hey at least we know how to domesticate wild squirrel babies now

  • i hope the squirrel grows up and has like cat squirrel hybrids

    squats?

  • @onimus93  That's funny.

  • Got the link for this via email, and I usually just delete a lot of those without even looking. SO glad I checked this out, totally gorgeous and a squirrel that purrs is beyond cute. As for us females who think 'inter-species' nursing is cute when animals do it, if it was possible for human milk to be given to animals and it was that or nothing to save an animals life, I'd do it, but by expressing and feeding, anything else would be classed as kind of WRONG ! :p

  • @DigitalSinner Don't worry, nature will be back to normal when the oxytocin wears off and the other kittens are old enough to eat meat. mmm.. milk fed squirrel. Of course they won't report that, it would bum out the viewers.

  • @foiblebear kittens wont try to eat there siblings :/ and those people look smart enough to remove the squirrel from the group when the time is right

  • C'est mignon!

    

  • I wonder if any of the women who think it's cute when cats nurse squirrels would themselves nurse a chimp, or baby gorilla, or puppy. Is there a name for inter-species nursing? If not, there should be. 

  • @creosotegirl good point. I would think that inter-species nursing or suckling would be the one.

  • i will so totally take the baby squirrel! when he is big enough i will take him. ive had pet squirrels before and they are awesome

  • I think the purring squirrel is just about the CUTEST thing I have ever seen on YouTube!

  • @gungagin Me too.

  • cute!

  • Awe, this is such a sweet story. I hope to hear an update on Rocky and the cats in a year. Love it!!!

  • Aww how sweet :) 

  • I love this! Why not? It just goes to show nothing is too wonderful. Horray for the momma cat & horray for the little squirrel!

  • aw this is so cute... we feed squirrels in our back yard every morning... its gotten to a point that they'll take it from our fingers, through the door.

  • That is so adorable! I love squirrels & kitties! Now I want a domesticated pet squirrel haha lucky bastards in Mississippi!

  • That's Amazing!!!!

  • OMFG HOW CUTE!!

    Bah...I hate myself for that...but it is cute..

  • awee, true love. <3333

  • Oh lawds it purrs XD

  • How cute! We had a cat that raise a baby rabbit like this many years ago.

  • @Dotgrammy Did the rabbit learn to make cat sounds? :D

  • @QKlilx No... But when one of our dogs raised a baby duck, it used to pull on her nipples like it was nursing, and they loved each other for YEARS, licking/nuzzling each other's faces whenever the dog would go out into the back yard. It was so sweet. We even have video of that one. Maybe I should post it!

  • Good momma kitty. :] I love squirrels as much as I love cats.

  • I saw this on the local News on Ch7 in NYC. I wish different people got along like different animals do.

  • Thank you for posting this. It is amazing. It is adorable. It is ... one of the best videos I've ever seen. Great people too :)

  • squee!! :D

  • That momma cat looks just like Max. That is so sweet. I was showing Max the purring squirrel and he tried to eat my iPod.

  • Awesome people to be rescuing so many cats, and a squirrel! I've learned there are so many good dogs and cats to be adopted for almost free. Why buy?

  • I wrote a story after seeing this.Its on pictures of cats (dot) org called Rocky The Purring Squirrel. Hope you'll do more as Rocky gets older.
